📋 About This Mod

Now you can relax across the Starfield without being deafened by air-conditioning!

Reduces unrealistic intense rumble in background sounds. Retains realistic (well used & immersive) bass to maximize effective use of low-end sound for an improved listening experience.

Far more realistic and immersive. Difference is immediately noticeable.

Reducing the always-present & unrealistic bass/rumble in these background sounds makes the use of low-end sounds in the rest of the game audio (weapons, storms, explosions etc) more noticeable and effective, and can reduce distortion in your speakers for improved clarity.

Particularly beneficial with headphones.

Reduces rumble of over 4000 audio files containing:

- Unrealistically noisy air-conditioning.

(Which is the majority of background sounds... most are very similar variants of each other as ambient sounds are location specific).

Does not modify sounds of:

- Storms & weather.

- Rain on roof.

- Crowd sounds from within interiors.

- Building & ship groans/creaks.

- Distant birds and creatures.

- Doors, airlocks & elevators.

- Lights & signs.

- Effects on edge of tall towers/cliffs.

- Airvents in Cydonia.

- Underwater.

- All machinery & appliances.

- Artifacts.

- Thermal vents.

+ Few other specific background sounds that included immense rumble that was deemed realistic/immersive.

… and any game sounds not categorized by the original files as ‘ambient’.

Pairs perfectly with “Increased Weapon and Combat Audio Bass”.

“The mod download is 5. 7GB?”

Yes. Sorry. There are a LOT of repeated/very similar background sounds as Starfield uses unique tweaked variations for each location + a lot of generic/shared versions.

“Does this mod affect the audio quality?”

The audio workflow was carefully considered to ensure no audio quality was lost during processing or conversion at all.

This mod should increase the clarity of audio across the game as most speaker setups will now have less distortion from unnecessary low quality bass.

“Does this mod use a plugin?”

No plugin space is use
