MBZ 2014 Engine sound

synced with a run around Monza. Sounds flat to me but we'll have to wait and see

Not as chilling as the F1 of old. The Honda Senna commercial, those sounded amazing.

"Doing a recording in a test cell is quite challenging because you need to extract the exhaust fumes and extract them safely from the factory .... which naturally takes some of the sound with it.

"Then, a test cell is a room with flat walls, which causes the noise to bounce around and reduces the purity of the sound. It's an engine dyno - not a recording studio!"






If the racing is outstanding, in the long run, no one will care what the cars sounded like.

Agree. Last thing i want them to sound like is a 1.6 liter civic with a coffee can for an exhaust.

Ditto. I loved the sound of the NA engines. Ill reserve judgement till i actually hear the car/engine outside and not in an engine dyno room.
