- Custom volume options let you tune each sound to your liking
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2016 – may not be fully compatible with current game patches or DLC

- If you're using a mod manager like Nexus Mod Manager or Vortex, just download with the manager and it'll handle installation – no manual file placement needed.
- After installing, load your save and visit a settlement with generators and turrets to test the volume changes – you can adjust the in-game settings if the mod provides a config or MCM.
- Since the mod is from 2016, check the mod's comment section for any user-reported compatibility notes with the latest Fallout 4 updates.
