DSound or XAudio2? - gabriel21st - 01-06-2011
I am playing SSBB and during the singleplayer cutscenes, the sound is not very good. The left channel has somewhat distorted sound (Wario sounds like an evil maniac with a really deep voice). Right channel is normal, except the sound is popping/crackling. I was using DSound, which was default. I tried switching to XAudio2. So far i think sounds better, i haven't noticed any distorted sound effects during the cutscenes. I haven't come across any Wario cutscenes again, so idk if he still sounds weird in left channel. I only got to test XAudio2 for about 10 minutes. So what i'm wondering is which audio plugin should i use? Which is less buggy/more accurate?

none, they all use the same dsp core.
RE: DSound or XAudio2? - gabriel21st - 01-06-2011
So what's the difference between the two? How do i fix my issue?

use whichever output API that works best on your sound card.

By giving us some basic information like what revision you were using and which audio plugin you were using.
@Squall
I don't think he understands what a backend is....but I don't feel like explaining it to him now.

Bump. Are the cinematics supposed to sound like that, or is there a fix?
RE: DSound or XAudio2? - Squall Leonhart - 01-07-2011
