Important: If you own the CAT C15 Sound & Engine Pack, there is no need to buy this pack since it was included for free. This pack was previously known as the W9 Interior & Effect Pack so there is no need to buy it again, if you bought this when was it was called by its old name.

The Kenworth Interior & Effect Sound Pack (previously known as the W9 Interior & Effect Pack) is the perfect companion for your Kenworth truck and one of my Sound & Engine Packs.

This pack adds highly detailed and authentic interior sounds such as parking brakes, windows, wipers, switches etc and effect sounds such as air brakes, horns, gearbox clunks and reverse beepers all recorded from various Kenworth trucks.

Depending on which truck you are driving, the interior sounds will change automatically to suit the truck. For example, if you are driving a modern W900, you will hear modern chimes and sounds of plastic blinker stalks etc. If you are driving a Kenworth K100, you will hear classic style blinker relays and air operated windows. 
 

NEW (As of ATS v1.43): This pack now includes realistic cabin volume attenuations meaning the sound of the environment and engine from within the cabin are now realistically portrayed. It is highly recommended that you use one of my Interior & Effects Packs alongside my Sound & Engine Packs for the full sound-scape!

4th Generation of Sound (G4)


Zeemod’s 4th generation of sound includes the following key features and techniques. 


Dynamic Volume Control
This means that the volume of the engine, intake, turbo and exhaust will fade over distance and each sound emitter is placed in a believable location on the truck. 


Dynamic Sound Effects
This means various dynamic effects are applied to the exhaust sound to simulate the engine take load. You’ll hear the exhaust note change as the throttle is pressed and will sound different depending on how heavy your truck/load combination is. 


Directional Sound Control
This means that the volume and/or pitch of a sound will change depending on the location of the listener (eg, the player’s camera). For example, if the player’s camera is at the front of the vehicle, you will mostly hear the engine sounds, whilst if the player’s camera was at the rear of the vehicle, you’d mostly hear the exhaust sounds.


Dual Exhaust & Full-Fidelity Sounds.
This means that a single exhaust pipe was recorded with either two microphones or two exhausts had their own independent microphones recording the sound. These sounds are then implemented into the game in a dual-channel, simulating the different sounds captured from each exhaust pipe independently. 

And each microphone placed in the engine bay, for example, has its own independent sounds playing in-game instead of being combined into a single channel sound. This produces a rich, full-fidelity sound, ideal for those audiophiles.

Multi-stage Jake or Interbrake system.
This means that you can toggle each Jake or Interbrake stage and each stage will have its own unique sound. Zeemods was the first to introduce this feature to ATS, as far as we know.

Compatible with:

ATS v1.44 / 1.45 (also compatible with older versions, up to 1.39, but might not sound as intended).

Disclaimer:

Whilst every effort is made to ensure the sounds are accurate as possible, updates to the platform (ATS or ETS2) can make undesired or unexpected changes to the audio system that could cause the sounds to no longer sound as they originally did. Additionally, the sound may not always sound exactly the same on your PC as it does in a promotional video. It is important that you read the included documentation to ensure that your sounds are configured properly to prevent this from happening. Furthermore, it is not advised to compare the sounds from these sound packs with Youtube videos of real vehicles because Youtube videos are heavily compressed, and generally speaking, are recorded with low-quality microphones on handheld devices. Sound packs provided by Zeemods are recorded with 6 to 8 movie-quality microphones and will invariably record a much larger frequency range than a handheld device. Due to the complexity of the sounds, Convoy mode will contain a simplistic version of the engine sounds which will play remotely on other player vehicles.
