📋 About This Mod
Aura is a wonderful MWSE sound effects mod, however its functionality is dependent on Master and Effects SFX being at 100%. While this works well with the rest of the mod and game, it makes spells far too relatively loud for my taste, and was giving me an active headache.
This mod simply consists of the ~50 spell sound files with their volume reduced. It requires no ESP. It does not affect the Magic Sound sound effect.

This audio mod reduces all spell casting sound volumes to about a third of vanilla levels, making magic less ear-splitting. With 82 endorsements and 1,821 downloads, it's a niche but appreciated tweak for players who find default spell sounds too loud. Last updated in September 2022, it works with vanilla or AURA.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Does exactly what it says—quiets spell sounds without touching other audio.
- Works with both vanilla and AURA, so it's flexible for different setups.
- Small but solid following (82 endorsements) from players who wanted less noise.
⚠️ Cons
- Only affects spell casting sounds—other magic-related audio like explosions or impacts may stay loud.
- Last updated in 2022, so it might not be tested with the latest game patches.
For players who love magic but hate the ear-splitting volume of spell effects. If you're using AURA or vanilla sounds and want a quieter experience, this is a quick fix. Skip if you're fine with default volumes or want more comprehensive audio overhauls.
💡 Beginner Tips
- If you're using AURA, make sure this mod loads after it so the volume reduction applies correctly.
- Test in a quiet area first—cast a few spells to see if the new volume is comfortable.
- Since it's a simple audio tweak, you can easily remove it if you change your mind.
