re: global vent settings

I noticed during the raid tonight that a few people are loud (myself included heh), and some are quiet. These are the settings my whole guild used in another game I played, and it seemed to work well. This should set it so everyone sounds the same...some tweaking may be required for your own equipment.


Vent Normalization makes every bodies voice the exact same volume. In essence, you won't blow your ear's out or have difficulty hearing people.
____________________


Here's how:

- Go to Setup

- Enable Direct Sound

- Select the SFX Button

- Select Compressor and click Add.

- Under Compressor Properties use the following settings

- Gain = Adjust for how loud you want people to be. (I use 15)

- Attack = 0.01

- Release = Around 500

- Threshold = Around -30

- Ratio = 100

- Pre delay = 4.0




--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Q u o t e:
Edit:

What the settings do - Copied and pasted from page 8

Gain
How much volume you feed into the compressor. Not really relevant unless everyone is too quiet, then you can turn this up a little; turning it up too much will sound EXTREMELY *%*%ty.

Attack
How fast volume change will happen. example: setting this to 500 means that any-
thing coming in will only be dropped in volume after a half a second. for vent this should
be set as low as possible.

Release
how fast the compressor stops changing things. not really that relevant with vent, setting it around 500 is good for voice material.

Threshold
This sets the point where we actually start changing what?s coming in. Whereas 0 is the absolute loudest you can have for an input, -60 is super quiet. Average users will probably come in somewhere around -25 to -15, with the occaisional few being really quiet, which is why I have this set so low.

Ratio
How much any sound below the set threshold gets compressed and/or modified in the volume department.
If you still want to hear SOME volume variation then set this lower (2-4)... the higher you set it the closer in volume everyone will be.

Pre delay
Mostly just deals with processing; with computer and digital processors they can look ahead a few milliseconds to see what needs to be dropped in volume or changed before it actually comes through the speakers. Highest is ideal.

re: Wicked Tribe Ventrilo Server Settings

So after trying to log in just now, it has come to my attention that our new vent lacks a mac compatible codex

This is the message I get when i log in
"Failed to get encoder for specified Codec.

This client platform currently only supports the Speex codec. The server and/or channel is configured to use the 'GSM 6.10 codec."

re: Wicked Tribe Ventrilo Server Settings

Mac users can only use the Speex codec, and our new vent is currently configured to use GSM 6.10 instead. This is causing our Mac users to be unable to speak in vent at all.

I am currently looking to see if I can fix as a semi-admin thing but not sure if I can.

Edit: Fixed it for Mac users using the Speex codec.
