5.1 surround sound
Posted: 09 Mar 2020 19:07
Hello truckers,
so i have this question.
As my simrig is getting almost perfect (FF steering wheel, homemade SKRS shifter, buttonbox, triple screen and so on), graphic and controls are fully satisfying. The next logical step will be a sound equipment upgrade.
For now, i use a nice HiFi stereo setup of two speakers, one subwoofer and a good amplifier. So my sound now is 2.1
The change could be a upgrade to a 5.1 system. But first i wan't to know, if it is worth the investment. So i need to know, if ETS2 is actually supporting 5.1 setup and if it makes difference.
So tell me, if you have any experience with ETS, ATS and 5.1 setups.
The questions i do have:
Is there a full 5.1 channel implemented? Can you hear the difference? I mean, not only between left and right channel, but also between front and rear?
Is upcomming FMOD implementation going to support it? Someone allready tried with ATS 1.37 beta?
I can't test this myself, because of the recent setup. And investing in 5.1 upgrade i consider only, when i'm sure, it brings me something new...
Thanks very much in advance for any response and tips.
Greetings,
Mischa
