Sounds break up at stations

[Shads]

Anyone else getting this? The game plays fine but I get a crackling sound whenever I am taking off or landing.

Yes,,I get this. Gfx performance is running in ok(ish), but the sound is awfully broken

 

[edguy]

Not getting this, Perhaps CPU related?

I also get this when passing through the forcefields of the entrance. It sounds like the sound mixer is clipping.

Isnt this supposed to happen ... Like to represent the sound while going through a force field?

You may need to disable your audio enhancements in Windows (Bass Boost, Loudness Equalisation etc). It made a massive improvement on my machine.

It happened during interdiction as well... and I have a top of the line CPU, it does seem to be affected by connection speed however.

Crystal clear for me - running a ext sound card and a decent headset , a few things to monitor are your cpu's load and heat, CoreTemp is a good free program for this. if you have an on board s/card and your cpu is not up to scratch it maybe a load issue.
Also check drivers for sound card - ensuring updated version - would recommend re-installing anyway.

As Dr Roly mentioned check your bass settings it may be simply that your speaker can't take the bass gain and it's particular heavy during take off / landing , jump to hyper drive.

My sound is fine anywhere else. Its just landing and taking off from outposts on for a second or two passing through letterbox at big stations. Nothing else cause the distortion. Its not bass related because there are much more sound intensive occasions where I get no distortion and not temp'load related. Just something very specific about being near a station. Very odd.
