Rattle old standby altimeter with ISFD

Featured Replies

Hello fellow 737 drivers, 

I started the 737 up again after a long time to do some flying again but I noticed that when I was configuring a new livery for a new airline I am intending to fly for that the cockpit sounds produce the famous vibration of the older standby altimeter while I have selected the option to use the ISFD. That rattle should not be there. When I select the older set of standby instruments from the FMC, I get a second rattle added to the sound in the cockpit. (all in the 738WL)

I've tried it in several liveries but it seems to be a persisting issue in all liveries I have selected.

I've changed some .wav files years ago but none of them the PMDG_737_Standby_Instruments in the P3D>Sound>PMDG>737NGX>Various folder.

I would appreciate any suggestion that would lead to solving this issue.

Cheers, 

Daniel W.

Tried hitting Q twice: no effect as I expected.

 

Looking forward to trying other ideas.

Lol... I‘ve just needed a second to get it xD

 

Daniel there are several sound bugs in the FSX/P3D systems that make several sounds hang up... often turning the sound off and reactivating it (using ol‘Q) helps. As it doesn‘t help I would suggest to submit a ticket to support, this seems to be a system specific issue... and I‘ve never read about this specific issue before. 

But - if I was you - I would backup my custom sounds and revert to the original soundset that comes with the installer first. PMDG does generally not support custom modifications.

@shamrockflyer: no, I have no immersion packs installed.

I shall attempt to submit a support ticket.
