I'm sure I'll have questions about this, but first, is it possible if you could provide a link to the full version of FL Studio you use?
assuming you use Bit Torrent / U Torrent.. whatever really? here's a direct link

As for the Volume, I've updated the OP with a small tut on how to equalize each track to coincide with the games dB limit

Pretty damn cool, dude. I've always had my own way of doing it, but this sounds great--very authentic. I'm definitely looking forward to seeing what you'll have for titantrons. I already know how to get custom ones in, but the program puts a watermark on the video, so if you know a way that doesn't, I'm all ears.

Damn you, Titan83, now I gotta update the 120 or so themes I have uploaded so far! LOL, luckily I have Box.com's sync program to handle the updates. But thank you SO much for the amplitude gain addition to the tutorial. I strive for perfection, and apparently so do you. ;)

I know what you mean.. initially I was happy with what I had 'till someone told me about MP3Gain at work! (This was so I could equalize all my itunes tracks) so then I went about finding how loud the games themes are and converted everything to mp3. the first disk i made for my xbox was using wavs, and the volumes were all over the place

Most of my themes are now horribly clipped. Is that supposed to happen?

WTF. Some are perfectly normal, others go above the 0 dB mark, and are clipped as a result. What's going on? Some of these are ruined now.

you should be abe to undo it with mp3gain. it happened to me aswell. The ones that were doing it i just left, because thats obviously as loud as they go without being distorted. if there are CD released versions of the tracks that are doing it, use them because they can handle it abit better

Well, some of the MP3 tracks don't go higher than -3dB, some go "over" 0dB (clipped). That can't be right.

Followed all your instructions, and I get no sound. Repeated the instructions a few more times, and still no sound. I still haven't found where the problem is. Can someone help, please?

Any word on that titantron tutorial?

I've finally put those that I created into the game & they're too loud as they drown out the announcer.

Should they all be set to 95.6dB?

some of the tracks in the game rip are as loud as 97.1

if they're too loud, you should be able to undo them all in mp3gain. i'm beginning to think this gain thing was a bad idea :lol:

as for the no sound thing, make sure to check your input/ouput settings in Options / Audio Settings. not sure what else to say on that really.. for me, the sound was fine on installation. i can't say i've ever had problems with audio really.

And the Titantron tutorial will come eventually. It's for the 360 only though as it doesn't work for the PS3 (can't be hacked)

I've found an actual reverb player called BZR Player I can play themes and video game music on the fly in reverb rather than saving them and whatever so every time I wanna listen to a theme on my computer I can open it up in there and it will play it like an arena.

Knob to slider conversions to use are a bit confusing though as it's a 5 slider thing with settings in percent with defaults set as Room Size 71%, Damp 56%, Wet 15%, Dry 50%, Width 10%.

Can anybody help me around the conversions. I like the current default arena effect in there as it is I think it's sweet but to have it sounding even better with a FL to BZR percentage conversion would be even cooler.

I would like my setting to be more of a real life one like a arena recording from the TV compared to an ITunes release rather than a fake game recording version compared to an ITunes.

You may have to save the AAC as a quality 8 256k OGG for testing so it keeps the same quality as both are VBR style formats but AAC don't work in BZR yet unless an update to include it comes whilst OGG does work in it and so does mp3 but an ogg is closer to the quality of an AAC because of it's style of VBR being the same kinda thing.

Anyway could someone help me make a decent FL Style setting but compared to a real life arena rather than an in game one.
