📋 About This Mod
Songs from Halofarm's radio mod, Wave Radio, re-encoded so they're not so loud in comparison to Blake's dialogue. I normalized the volume down to around 89db; the songs in the original mod are on average 5db higher and contrast pretty starkly with Blake's dulcet tones...
New: I've also thrown up an optional download that adds one second of silence to the start of Blake's intro dialogue clips. This is to help alleviate the skipping/stuttering that happens sometimes with the original clips.
This mod re-encodes songs from Halofarm's Wave Radio mod to balance their volume against Blake's dialogue, addressing a common annoyance. It's a small, focused fix for players who use Wave Radio but find the music too loud. With 343 endorsements and last updated in 2014, it remains a niche but appreciated tweak.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Solves a real problem: no more ear-splitting music drowning out Blake's lines
- Community-approved with 343 endorsements, so it's tested and liked
- Simple, focused fix—no bloat, just volume balancing
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2014—might not work with newer game versions or mod updates

For Fallout players who use Wave Radio but are tired of the music blasting over dialogue. If you've ever had to turn down the radio just to hear a conversation, this is for you. Skip if you don't use Wave Radio or if you're fine with the original volume.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure you have Halofarm's Wave Radio installed first, then drop this mod's files into your Data folder and enable it in your mod manager.
- If you're using a mod manager like Nexus Mod Manager or Mod Organizer, install this after Wave Radio to ensure it overwrites the original audio files.
- Check your load order—this mod should load after Wave Radio to take effect properly.
