    Hi. I would like to report that the mixing of the external sounds of Audi R8 GT3 are wrong. Power sound has higher pitch than coast sounds.

    I have a dinner appointment, but I did get the AI out briefly and they sounded correct to me. Verify your files and ensure you are running the most up to date version. Choose NONE in the BETA tab in steam/rfactor2/properties.

    was it the 2018 or 2019 version? I did get back late last night and tried one of them, seemed ok. Could you post a video showing what you are hearing?

    Both. Them have the same sounds. And sorry, the problem is that power sounds have lower pitch than coast sounds.

    The power sound doesn't progress properly over the whole range (external cam). About halfway through the tone lowers, and that's when the mismatch with the coast sounds happens. Your video above has the correct and incorrect power sounds blending, which is why it sounds like there's another car behind or something like that.

    So I think the coast sounds are fine, just the second half of the rpm range needs looking at for the external power sounds.

    Sorry, I don't understand your message at all (I have poor English :p). Then, what is the solution?

    It seems to me the on-power sounds need to be corrected by S397.

    I don't know if Devin does car sounds, but I guess someone, assuming they don't check this section anyway.
