![]() Ideally, from the "audio mix" for tactile, we want L/R positional stereo effects and the engine or other audible characteristics found with each car. I have seen somethings that lead me to believe we are best to just use 2 channel audio for mixing instead of 6 channel. Or I could mix 5.1 audio over a 6 channel tactile config. With my tests on my old rig I had the ability to mix Stereo L/R audio over any channel. What I do know is that PC titles are not always the best at utilising properly multichannel audio. What I can't see anywhere is someone that has inspected and compared 2.0 channel audio in racing sims with the 5.1 or 7.1 output options. This way the mix will happen in the seat/rig or installed surface materials by themselves. I will cover this at a later time but as mentioned before, we are best to limit the effects for any channels we want to have a "mix" or we can just have "audio tactile only" installed units be combined with "Shakeit" only installed units. What I don't recommend is adding audio to a unit that already is being given multiple tactile effects to generate. We find a balance (may need altered with different titles). It is unlikely that many people have used it for the purpose we can use it for.Ĭontrols we need for mixing are simple, altering for the output going to the amp, how loud the "audio is" to the "Shakeit" effects. So I wouldn't expect it to be limited to low-quality output. What I can say is that APO 1.2 is made for audiophiles that use quite expensive microphones to analyse their room acoustics and then use the CO/EQ features to configure their audio accordingly. Is it perhaps related to old Realtek Drivers? I have not yet done a full quality test with my own hardware and APO 1.2 or with different soundcards I own. However, I have included the final optional step for those who want to play around a bit with this.Am a bit confused and need more understanding with the driver issues you guys are referring too. In my tests, it is possible to remove that humming, but it will come at decreased quality, and worse, every machine will be different so I can't give you a set of magic numbers to use. One thing to note: If you crank your volume WAY up you'll probably notice you traded a "hiss" for a very low "hum." For most people this is the end, the hum should not be easy to hear compared to the hiss and would only matter if you were doing real recordings. However, if your mic is too quiet simply add some mic gain on the right-hand slider marked "Output Gain." Test in increments of 5dB, keeping in mind the higher this goes the worse quality will get (but the louder your mic will be). It'll look like this:Īt this point, you can click "OK" or "Apply" and actually go test your recording! ReaFir's subtract mode comes with a built-in noise suppression, so messing too much in this area isn't needed. Then drag those two dots ALL the way to the bottom, so you end up with a flat line at the very bottom of the screen. This looks more complex than it is, so don't panic! Under "Mode" select "Subtract." It's highlighted below: ![]() It should look like this when you're done:įinally, press the button labeled "Open Panel." We're now ready for the final step. Navigate to where you installed ReaPlugs and load the file "reafir_standalone." Now add Plugins -> VST Plugins and then the load button. Once you have that selected press "OK" and then click the plus sign under the Selected Device. First, click the + sign in the top left and add Control -> Device and then click "Change" and select only the mic we want to edit. Neat! Now we have to add only two items to the top. Start by running Configuration Editor in the EQ APO directory, but remove everything so you're looking at a blank slate. The best practice is to leave it in the default directory, which is where other programs may look for it. Just make sure to note where you've installed it, as that will be needed in the next step. You may need to reboot after installing this as well. Installing ReaPlugs should be as easy as running the installer. Next, you'll need to reboot your machine. While you can select all the devices you normally use for audio (there's a lot EQ APO can do) the only one that matters for THIS tutorial is your microphone.Īs you can see in the image above, I have selected both our USB and a normal 3.5mm input, but you'll probably only want the 3.5mm input, as the USB should not require this tutorial. When you install EQ APO you'll get a pop-up to select the devices you want to use. Make sure you download the correct version of the Reaper VST, 64 bit most likely. If you don't want to buy that USB you're going to need two programs, Equalizer APO and the Reaper VST plugin ReaFir. Explore ModMic Discover how ModMic changes the way you game
