nystyle Posted October 8, 2012 Report Share Posted October 8, 2012 if using a music editor how many DB's should the theme music be to be used well in game?I notice most of my music on the ps3, when tested with the editing software, is around 98.0. figured id ask before putting new theme songs on there.

KomicJ Posted October 9, 2012 Report Share Posted October 9, 2012 Not sure if it's the same as X-Box, but I set mine at 93.5 dB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nystyle Posted October 9, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 9, 2012 Not sure if it's the same as X-Box, but I set mine at 93.5 dB. would 98.0 work or be too loud? (at work so I cant try it at the moment) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KomicJ Posted October 9, 2012 Report Share Posted October 9, 2012 Well it would probably be way too loud for X-Box. Can't say for PS3. I saw a post from someone on another forum saying 93 dB was also what he was using on PS3, but take that for what it's worth. If you wanna save some time before you burn and load all your songs, personally, what I did is I burned a couple of version of one theme, all with 1 dB difference (from 88 dB to 102 dB, on the same CD. Created playlist with each one, individually, and tested in my game. 93 dB was fine, 94 dB for an "extra-pop" I'd say. Also, I'm using track with custom reverb effects...if you're not, you might have to lower it a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nystyle Posted October 9, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 9, 2012 so for no reverb maybe 91-92? im using mp3gain. dont know if that makes a difference Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KomicJ Posted October 9, 2012 Report Share Posted October 9, 2012 I used MP3 Gain as well. Non-reverb, I'd probably go 92. But then again, remember that I'm on X-Box, and that's what I'm basing this on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1ManGang Posted October 9, 2012 Report Share Posted October 9, 2012 to be honest I have used mp3gain and no matter how low in dB's I went or high when I added the song to an entrance the volume was always different than it was when playing it outside the game on the ps3. I had sin cara's new theme at 102dB's and it played really low in game. I have had other teams at 89.0 dB's that played really loud in game. its a crap shoot for me.

E#37 Posted October 9, 2012 Report Share Posted October 9, 2012 I uses for reverb versions 93 db and non reverb 91 db. That pretty much matches the in-game themes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you to every one for responding and your advice and help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
