In game sound is very low

[Juzbee]

Just a quick update -- I have used various sound systems now, both mine and some at my friend's houses, ranging from basic to pretty high end. The sound is definitely not as good "in game" in MLB 17 vs 16. I played 16 up until the day that 17 arrived at my doorstep, so the differences are very obvious to me. One of the things you may notice is that imported music has very little bass in-game (i.e., walk up music, HR music, etc). Kind of a bummer, but I'll probably get used to it. It is curious to me why they would change something that already sounded good.

I'm with Juzbee on this one. The walk up music is so muffled this year.

That's so weird because it is miles better for me this year.

did you change anything in the audio settings? cuz I do notice the stadium sounds are very low I know last year you posted what you change in the audio settings.

The in-game music is low for me as well. I found if you tone down the crowd volume more then halfway, and the music up about 85% it seems a bit better. I think the past 2 years I had to tone down the crowd volume, its always really high.

Add me to this list. Walk up music, crack of the bat, etc.... sounds muffled. Nothing like the twitch broadcasts. Played around for two hours last night and could never get it to sound right. Other games sound fantastic, so I don't think the soundbar has anything to do with it.

Also have the same issue with the in between innings MLB Network music "blasting" when music slider is at max. If the in game music was as loud as the in between innings it would be great. Seems out of "sync". All speakers in the soundbar (Vizio) are real loud during commercials only.

I've tried every setting I can think of. I have successfully gotten the volume levels semi-good, but the overall quality still sounds like crap.

I found a program that can add bass to my mp3's, so I'm going to play around a little bit and see what I can do. I am not hopeful about this, and will probably be going back to MLB 16, although I will miss the new ball physics very much, the overall experience in 17 is less enjoyable for me.

The program we use to edit is called goldwave and it has equalizer funcitionality if you wanted to give it a try.
