Rom sound?

Is it normal for some roms to sound static like? I just noticed after adjusting my sound on my DS emulator.

 

Go into the Emulation Options and change the sound quality setting higher.

 

It's in Digital Stereo and Best Quality of I believe 44hz or something like...

 

Try Digital Mono, also how fast is your computer?

 

Actually anand, some DS games really sound awful on no$gba, because these games rely on the actual NDS-9 BIOS file for sound decoding, if that's the correct term.

 

I know, some DS games sound horrible on real DS hardware, but emulator BIOS aren't that too good anyway. ARM 7 actually addresses the sound channels.

 

Some games just sound crappy on no$, I have a few back here, don't know exactly which though. Even if the game is running at 100%, it is crappy.

 

My computer or should I say Laptop is 2 years old. So it isn't as fast as some of you guys. I am running Windows XP SP 3, 512MB ram (I know I need way more...) and my Processor speed is like 1.6 GHZ far less than I wanted....But I can't complain simply because I play Ragnarok Online on a P-Server and don't really care for many new MMO's...On top of that I can only play games when I have the time anyway.

-Also, this was a "christmas gift" during the Black Friday at a Circuit City and the Laptop was dropped from like I don't remember but it was high enough to like $300 for that day only.

 

It might also be the laptop, as it is known that laptops don't have a sound system as powerful as a desktop computer. Also, if the ROM is running at less than 100% speed, the sound might be bad. What's the ROM you're trying to play?

 

Luminous Arc. I have the ROM fps at like 30 or something...Should I change it?

Oh and I use a program called NDS2xGL2. It's helps magnify the program so you can see it better. Is there a better one than the one I'm currently using and could it be causing my sound to be distorted some what?

 

I would say it's the magnifier itself that could cause it, not sure though, try playing the game without using the magnifier. I donwloaded Luminous Arc, played for a while, finished a battle, the only "static" sound I found was in the voices outside of battles, but the rest was just perfect. Give it a shot without the magnifier.

 

That's where I have the static sound is in the voice overs. But I think I might be able to manage with out the magnifier.

 

But it's not much, just a tiny bit.

 

So you do play without the magnifier? If anything I'll do that.

 

Don't use the addons, it's usually much slower than no$gba itself, so use it by itself. Your laptop should be fast enough.

 

Thank you. I will do that...I'll just have to un-install it somehow.

 

It's just removing the files you put there, I tried using no$gba 2.6x, it was just copy pasting, so I just deleted the files, no need to uninstall anything. Just delete it.

 

I couldn't remember which files were what because of what was added...I don't mind starting over the games anyway. I do it all the time. Sometimes if it's been tooooooo long since I've played and I can't remember, I just start a new file until I reach that same point again and save in a different slot or over it. My ex-boyfriend can tell you if I messed up in a RPG like especially leveling and getting gears I will start over because either I missed something over I'm too frustrated to continue.

 

You should still be able to continue on an addon and nonaddon, since it's an addon, it doesn't change the save writing.

 

Cool. *Goes back to playing Luminous Arc*
