SimAcoustics has released their own FMOD sound pack for the Cessna 172 for X-Plane 11. If you don’t know what FMOD is, it is a sound mod which is used by many aircraft in X-Plane 11, but it is especially used in the car simulators. A good example is ZIBO 737.
As the developer stated, it is a premium quality sound package using the new powerful FMOD sound system they built a sound environment to a level of detail “never heard before”. The main features of this sound package are authentic engine sounds, realistic sounds for equipment, true to life system and control noise of the G1000 navigation unit, detailed airflow and weather sound effects.
