Optimized audio settings ?

[extinctsquirrel 24]

There have been a few optimized video settings thread coming and going for the past few weeks but I've never seen an audio settings thread before.

We all know that sound is an important part of DayZ for hearing zombies, player activity and... heli's.

Wanted to see what your take is on the audio settings.

I feel like I don't have anything near optimized and I'm sure other people have the same feeling.

My current settings:

What I personally am trying to achieve here is;

- Absolutely no music

- No sounds which tell me nothing such as the annoying 'opening metal fence' sound that scares the bejeezes out of me each and every time

- High audio on rustling through grass and good weapon audibility.

From my experience, there is no way (in game) to turn down the annoying fence noise and isolate just the weapons / footsteps. All of these are classified as sound fx.

There are so few options I didn't think you could really "optimize" anything other than turning off music?

Why low VON & few samples? Aren't these as important as Effects?

Your feedback and the feedback of other forum users is why I made this thread.

I have little to no knowledge on the audio settings, I've been mainly busy with the video settings (which is now calibrated at smooth 60 FPS everywhere)

Could you elaborate on VON and few samples ?

Thanks for your feedback,

Bumping for the sake of audio itself and all that he may or may not broadcast from it's speakers !
