The new sound system is based around 5.1 audio.
So your using 2 speaks with a sub or less, you'll get simulated 5.1 or a clusterfark of audio on those 2 speakers.
Simulation of 5.1 is NOT the problem. I have 5.1 and the current EVE sound is nerfed.
Turn EVERYTHING all the way up and go out and survey a roid belt with a scanner. You can barely hear the noise that is made.
NPC rats hit you with fire, and you hear nothing.
Dock, and the terrible in station sound is way too loud and sucks.
I hope for a very quick fix as my EVE experience has greatly diminished.

Are you sure you are zoomed in to hear them?
Yes. Even if zoomed in completely, sound levels are still a problem.

..but if a Battleship gets the sounds just fine on my client, what is wrong with your client?
You don't have this many people with all different systems and sound cards having tons of problems without the problem being at CCP, NOT WITH OUR CLIENTS!
I would guess if you aren't realizing the problem it is because you don't understand the problem.

The opening post in this thread was posted - 2009.03.10. It is now 2009.07.07.
So, this sound problem has been going on without a fix for four (4) full months  -- by CCP's way of counting, which is that 30 days equals a month, at least for their billing purposes.
I have thought about suspending my account and telling CCP to let me know when they get the sound fixed and I will (maybe) reinstate it.

One STILL has to zoom in way too close to hear the fighting sounds concerning one's own ship.
I'm usually zoomed out quite a ways, to where my ship is almost impossible to see (on my 21" wide screen at 1680x1050 with EVE at full screen), for a good portion of the time of most fleet fights I'm in. In the heat of battle it is quite annoying to not hear, at least, the warning sound/siren of being targeted.
Sounds worked fine before Apocrypha.
Can it please, please be fixed again??
Thx much for working on this if you are.

I also miss being able to select the Audio Output Device on the Esc | Audio & Chat menu that use to be there.
I use to like to listen to EVE on my 5 surround sound PC speakers when my family was gone, and then switch on the fly to my headphones if they came home. Now if I want to switch from speakers to headphones I must quit EVE, change my master windows setting, and then log back into EVE. That works rather poorly in the middle of a fight.
See the screenshot link in this message if you want to see the selection I'm talking about that use to be available. It was few lines below the one they have a box around in that screen shot.
For this item Apocrypha was a step backward.
Thx again!
