No Stereo Sound? [Archive]

I just wanted to say I just decided to try out PSXE tonight, and was VERY impressed with it. Kudos to everyone who worked on it! It ran all the games I threw at it fine....Final Fantasy 9, Lunar 1 and 2, Persona 2, Star Trek: Invasion, and others.

With ONE little problem.....

No matter WHICH sound plug in I try, all I get is music and sound from ONE speaker for FF9! Is this a known problem?

I have a TBS Montego Bay sound card and the newest verison of the emulator and all the sound plugins. I tried all the config options and have also tried the regular one provided with the emulator. Nothing. I can't get stereo sound out of it!

Please help. :)

Thanks, Greg

Check The Wave out in your Windows Mixer.... Or check your speakers...... Or maybe its your sound card....

Thanks for the quick reply. I solved some of my problem....some of the sound plugins I had downloaded were bad. Once I tried again, I was able to stereo sound working out of all the games....EXCEPT FF9!

Is this a known bug? I can't find a mention if somewhere. But no matter WHAT sound plugin I try for FF9, all I get is music out of ONE speaker.

Small update:

After re-trying all of the sound plugins that I have (Regular, Pete, Null, etc.) and putting the left and right speakers up to my ears, I have found that for FF9 ONLY that there IS music coming out of the right speaker (left on the prepsective of looking at the monitor). It is VERY soft, though, almost not there. The other speaker is fine. NONE of the other PSX games do this -- they have normal balanced sound.

What the heck is going on here?

Thats Problably a software glitch..... Then it may be Direct X, Which version do you have???

I have Direct X 8.

I just did'nt know if this was a known bug of the game in the emulator.....of course, it HAD to be the first game I tried with it. :)

This is not a know glitch, (NEVER POSTED) So you may have to contact the coders of this emulator... This is out of my hands... Sorry...

This is a dumb idea ... but what the hell. Try adjusting the balance on the soundcard so that the sound is baised to the quiet one then turn up the volume.
