1 ProSim737 Audio

1.1 Introduction

The ProSim737 Audio module is managing all in-cockpit sounds. Environmental audio for example engine sounds, are created by the back end simulator and the ProSim Flight Model.

The first step is to configure the network settings.

When the ProSim737 Audio module is connected you can use the available cockpit audio sounds. The different sounds can be turned on or off and the individual volume can be adjusted.

For audio channel separation multiple instances of ProSim737 Audio can be used across multiple computers. No more than one instance of ProSim737 Audio is used per computer.

Volume control can be adjusted by changing the volume value, default 100(%) is selected. To lower the specific sound change a different value, for example 70%.

Sounds are added following these steps:

Add the audio file to ProSim737 System.

  1. Open ProSim737 System and select the Audio Addons option:
  2. ProSim737 System > config > Audio Addons
  3. It is recommended to create a specific folder to store the addon audio files.
  4. Create a unique name, select the audio file source, when required add a fade in and fade out sound, select if the sound should be played once or continuously and if required select the auto fade option.
  5. For this example the addon sound is saved as “Test Audio”.
  6. Restart ProSim737 System.

Select a function for the addon audio.
