Beep/Poping Sound in FF-XII

[Naesio]

Hey guys,

I'm having this rather annoying issue with FF-XII where the music/sound-effects will play an extremely high-pitched beeping sound. I'm not talking about the old issue where running around on certain terrain would make the footsteps sounds like a beep. The beeping sounds seem to happen at the same spot in the music. Oddly, it doesn't happen every single time the song or sound effect is played but when it does happen it's always at the same exact spot in the song. I found a fix for the beeping sounds by turning off effects processing in the spu2 settings but then the beeping sounds were replaced by crackling and popping sounds.

I'm using :
-PCSX2 0.9.7.3113
-SPU2-X r3117 1.4.0
(I tried PEOPS and Zeros sound plug-ins as well. PEOPS wouldn't even play music and had terrible sound quality. Zero's plug-in wouldn't play music and cut out constantly and had terrible distortion.)
-If you need any other specifics let me know.

I spent a good hour searching for answers and had no luck. Hopefully i can get this fixed with this forum's excellent help

Try an older SPU2-X like 1.2.0

Try an older SPU2-X like 1.2.0

I had no luck with 1.2.0 but 1.1.0 seems to work perfectly. I don't hear the annoying high-pitched sounds and i can keep reverb on so i still get positional sound.

Thanks very much

No problem, enjoy.

Looks like that didn't fix it. After i closed the game and reopened it (loading an in-game save not from a savestate) the beeping was back and now it's much worse. So i closed the game, switched to 1.2.0 and now that's working but neither 1.1.0 nor 1.4.0 fix it. This is really odd. I don't understand how 1.2.0 wasn't fixing it earlier and 1.1.0 was, and now all of a sudden 1.1.0 isn't working but 1.2.0 is.

You can also try the SPU2-X r3628 in the updated plugin pack I guess

Try disabling reverb also, as we think that is causing the issue.

[Shadow Lady]

Yes, he said that stopped the problem but would be better if it could keep reverb without having it.

So there's no SPU2-X version that fixes it? I could have swore :/

Uh no we tracked it and it's the time stretcher that causes it, so disable that
