DOE: Sound Extension

[dulux-oz]

SO on the wiki there is a walkthrough on how to set this up with teamspeak. Is Skype out of the question? Is it done the same way?

Yeah, as far as I know its done the same (or, at least, a similar way) - I don't know if Skype can be set up with two separate "channels", and Skype is way "heavier" in its Internet Usage than Teamspeak, but it should be pretty similar. There's a few posts on the Syrinscape forums that talk about using Syrinscape with Skype as well.

Having used both Skype and Teamspeak over the years my personal preference is for Teamspeak - especially as we can use the free FG-Con Teamspeak server whenever we want.

There is a soundscape designer who just posted on ENWorld making available some professional soundscpaes. Thought followers of this thread might be interested; https://www.enworld.org/forum/showth...62#post6961762

No, the architecture of Fg and the Autosounds makes that impossible - but the Export/Import-ability of the new v2 should make people happy (including with the new Chatsounds)

Can't WAIT for this! If I understand correctly, no more Skype, right?

Sort of - no more Skype at the cost of everyone having Syrinescape (and the SoundSets) installed locally

But if you don't like Skype then use Teamspeak - I've found that really good.

Oh wait - *everyone* needs Syrinscape? That's no good! Half of my players are over 60 and it took me AGES just to get them set up for FG. They will NOT want to install another local piece of software that they won't use for anything but one game.

Good grief! I hope they aren't going to make it impossible to continue to use Skype, then? At least most of them know how to use that from Skyping with their grandkids! >.<

Love this and it was surprisingly easy to setup.

My users hear Syrinscape sounds much softer than they sound on my system. Is there a setting or something I can change to let them hear it at the same volume I am hearing it?

This can usually be done, but it all depends on what setup you are using.

If you're using TeamSpeak to send the sounds down another channel to your voice, ask the users to right-click on the channel in the TeamSpeak client and select "Change Volume" - they can then change the volume level how they want.

I am using Mumble and Virtual Cable along with VoiceMeeter to mix the two. Mumble doesn't have the ability to separate the channels I do not think.

I'd look at the VoiceMeeter settings then - see if you can increase the volume of the Syrinscape input using the "Fader Gain" setting.

What Trenloe said - thanks Tren
