SOUND GONE / DISTORTED APEX LEGENDS

Hi,

I am experiencing some really annoying sound issues with Apex Legends.

Problem: Sound is normal all the time except for gunfights, then it is really messed up. Sound disappears or gets heavily distorted.

Comments: Game can lag a little bit at times, like spikelags. FPS is not high even if I feel I should be able to have a high fps. Ranges from 50-100 FPS usually.

I attached DXDIAG for info about my system

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0lNnXEZ_tMg&feature=youtu.be is a 1 min clip of a gunfight. The video was recorded with NVIDIA Shadowplay and replicates the sound I heard "live" exactly.

The issue has been there all the time, since I first installed Apex Legends.

I use Origin cleint.

I have tried all possible fixes I can think about:

Checked drivers/updated drivers.

Changing sound setting from/to 7.1 in logitech sw.

All settings on low ingame.

Setting Nvidia performance on max performance.

Repaired game...

Your everyday googling of solutions gave no answers really.

BRg,

S

  • Hi all!

    My friend who is good with sound systems came over and fixed the problem for me yesterday!

    What fixed my problem (see attached scrnshot):

    Go into Sound -> Speakers -> Settings -> Reset default values (or smth like that, mine is written in swedish).
    Apparently I had set my frequency settings too high which my headphones cant handle - resulting in this specific problem for this specific game.

    Hope this helps some of you!
