    I have a problem with the high rev sounds in the Renault Formula 3.5 car. Tried to reduce simultaneous sound effects from 32 to 8 but it didn't help. But hear and see for yourself, I uploaded a video:
    http://youtu.be/wqx1ft-1XP0

    Soundcard is onboard - M4A87TD EVO mainboard:
    VT1818 High Definition Audio 8-Channel CODEC
    - Supports Jack-Detection, Multi-Streaming, and Front Panel Jack-Retasking
    - Optical S/PDIF Out ports at back I/O
    - Supports 192kHz/ 24bit BD Lossless Sound
    - ASUS Noise Filter

    Any suggestions?

    Sounds to me like it is just bouncing off the limiter?

    Listen at about 16secs, there is some high pitched rattling.

    Clicks? Are your sound card drivers installed? Or are you using default Windows ones?

    default Windows drivers were installed, but I downloaded and installed the drivers supplied by Asus for this mainboard. Didn't improve the sound. I think it is not a problem of my soundcard but of the mods' sound, because with the 1960 open-wheelers and the megane everything is fine.

    Actually the Renault 3,5 sound is not too good comparing to GREAT 1960's and Megane's, I did try on my Realtek HD, and Audigy SE also

    What I'm hearing is annoyingly repetitive ≈1sec engine sample with some clicking noise in the background. Kind of like the static noise or some old vinyl crackling.

    I get the crackling too, just before limiter (on F3.5). Soundcard is Xonar DG. It really seems to be the audio files.

    I extracted the INT_POWER_HIGH.wav from the fr3.5 (FR3.5_SOUNDS.MAS) and the soundfile has terrible clipping? at some frequency. Could someone that knows more about audio look into this? It's so loud that I believe you can hear it, no matter how bad your speakers/headphones/soundcard is.

    I quit driving the Formula 3.5 cars due to this, it really hurts my ears. As there is no official answer to this I guess ISI expects the community to fix this fail.
