[racartron]

After watching a few video reviews, I couldn't wait either

Great model. Good price. Wait for 10 off Tuesday, an even better deal.

According to their forum, they are about to release another patch that will make the plane fully multi-player compatible. This has been in the works for some time now, so if you are into online flying now is the time to get it while it's cheap.

Got it, but I wish I hadn't. The sound is something I just can't live with. Any banking or rocking of the wings and I hear horrible phasing between the left/right engine sounds which make me feel sick when I hear it. I aliased the sound to the DA Cheyenne which doesn't have the problem, but all the OV-10 startup/shutdown sounds are handled by the aerosoft custom sound module, so they still occur. I also can't get any autopilot key commands to work. Oh well, at least I only blew $20.

Ottor, you might want to consider to report this issue to the Aerosoft support and try to get it fixed before coming to the conclusion that you blew 20$.
I also have this model and can't observe the phenomena you described.
I think this is an awesome aircraft.

Cheers,
Mark

Mine does not have that issue with the sound either,must be on your end.

[dvj]

I hear the phasing that is described, but not as annoying that one might think. Definately worth a shout out to the ASA team, or read the forums if it has already been reported.

[P38man]

Turn up the sound to hear the phasing - whether that kills the immersion for you is a matter of choice.

Try at 3:20

[P38man]

Well I bought it and for me it is the cruising phasing sound I truly do not like.

Each to their own.

Ottor....you say you worked out how to alias the sound it seems for cruising (not startup/shutdown) ?

Could you or someone please help me how to do that.

Because of the sound module stuff I am confused cause usually I just do a single line but that is obviously not going to work here.

[griphos]

I guess I'm auditorially challenged, as I do not hear what you are talking about, unless you just mean the sound cones that change the sound of the engines as you move around them, which is a premium feature of some addons. Do you hear this "phasing" when simply seated in the cockpit flying the plane?

[StormILM]

The phasing sound for a multi-turboprop like the OV-10 is quite normal:

I spent a lot of time around Marine Bronco's when I was young and even on the ground the Garrett engines are annoying and loud. One thing I would suggest is not aliasing the PT6 sounds in the OV-10 as they do not sound proper for the Bronco. If you want a more accurate Garrett sound, try Aaron Swindle's OV-10 sound pack and place it in the OV-10 folder replacing the original. I use it and enjoy it. The AS Bronco is the best FS model of the type yet and I am for the most part super happy with it but if there was one thing I would change it would be the engine sounds. Perhaps TSS might consider an aftermarket version?
