X_legio Posted March 15, 2022 Share Posted March 15, 2022 Hi folks, maybe a stupid question, I have a room of 4m x 3m dedicated to the sim, I use only VR and have a Reverb G2, I wondering if setting a 5.2 speakers setup is better that the G2 headset...

winghunter Posted March 15, 2022 Share Posted March 15, 2022 To me it feels like wearing a helmet. Much more immersive than 5.1 DCS Web Editor - New 3D Mission Editor for DCS that runs in your browser DCS Web Viewer free browser based mission planner / viewer 4090 RTX, 13700KF, water cooled Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VpR81 Posted March 15, 2022 Share Posted March 15, 2022 Prior to switching to VR i had my DCS sound splitted. I had the headphone sound (radio comms, RWR, warning sounds etc.) on my Headset and envroinment sounds ( engines, detonations, missiles etc.) on my 5.1 system. Added some immersion imo. When i got the G2, i switched to have all sounds on the VR headset. The G2 speakers are very good, but maybe splitting sound output may be worth a try for you.

Brun Posted March 15, 2022 Share Posted March 15, 2022 I use speakers for external sounds and have comms through the headset. Works perfectly.

Ala12Rv-Tundra Posted March 16, 2022 Share Posted March 16, 2022 6 hours ago, X_legio said: how you can split the sounds ? Within dcs settings audio options. You must have hear like in helmet option. Then choosing your headphones/headset speakers for helmet output, and regular desktop speakers for world sounds. i5 8400 | 32 Gb RAM | RTX 2080Ti | Virpil Mongoose T-50 base w/ Warthog & Hornet sticks | Warthog throttle | Cougar throttle USB | DIY Collective | Virpil desk mount | VKB T-Rudder Mk IV | Oculus Rift S | Buddy-Fox A-10 UFC | 3x TM MFDs | 2x bass shakers pedal plate| SIMple SIMpit chair | WinWing TakeOff panel | PointCTRL v2 | Andre JetSeat | Winwing Hornet UFC | Winwing Viper ICP FC3 - Warthog - F-5E - Harrier - NTTR - Hornet - Tomcat - Huey - Viper - C-101 - PG - Hip - SuperCarrier - Syria - Warthog II - Hind - South Atlantic - Sinai - Strike Eagle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brun Posted March 16, 2022 Share Posted March 16, 2022 Hear like in helmet option isn't relevent (I have it turned off). Just set the devices for Main audio out and Headphones as required...

X_legio Posted March 20, 2022 Author Share Posted March 20, 2022 I am using this setting since a couple of days, but strangely there are some sounds really low, for example when you land there is almost no sound. Any guess ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
