Sound artifacts in right ear only
-
Congratulations on a beautiful release!
I have only had a chance to fly the piston variant. More noticeable on the ground at idle, even more noticeable with the headset on:
There is a kind of warbling sound in the right ear only. And it doesn't appear to be a part of the soundscape as it doesn't move as I turn my head (VR/headphones). Goes away when the engine is shut off.
I wonder what it is. Is it intentional or a glitch? The sound is otherwise amazing.

No, that a siren, I haven't heard that.
I think I know what my issue is though. I just took up the Baron and it's similar. I believe it's simulated airframe resonance (my words). However, like the Bonanza it is also localized to the right ear and it doesn't move as I turn my head. That make it seem like its something in my headphones/ear and a little irritating. It would be very easy to miss without headphones.

Both my sound designer and I just looked into this, and can't hear anything out of the ordinary. Would you be able to upload a video for us to listen to?

Do you know what I mean by resonance? The kind of drone you get inside a cabin. I think that's what it is. And I'll be honest, my brain did tune it out after a while in the Baron. I don't know exactly how this works, but the sounds have a position in 3D space, so if I toggle a switch and moved my head around the sound is always in the correct direction. But this "droning" didn't seem to be doing that, it seemed strongly biased to the right ear.
Now of course, that might well be acoustically correct given that I'm sat on the left! And maybe this partly is attributable to the richness of the soundscape - my brain just can't take it all in
It's really fantastic.Anyway I will have a go in the Bonanza again tomorrow and if I can capture it with OBS and somehow point you to what I'm rambling on about, I'll send it over.

Its very noticeable, and doesn't track with the environment. Hope that helps.
The Baron has something similar but it's less obvious.

My sound designer and I listened to your clip, but try as we might, we can't hear anything out of the ordinary. For the sake of experimentation, would you try moving your camera to the right seat and telling us if the sound is now biased to your left ear? Everything we heard panning in stereo as you moved your head seemed to be as expected over here.
