how to change interface sounds?? Some are so loud as to be painful.

When clicking on certain tiles to upgrade on planets, the sound is INSANELY loud and quite painful. It doesn't matter if UI or SFX is up or down -- it's the relative level that is messed up. How can I change an individual sound? Or at least its level.

Again, it's not the overall level, it's the occasional badly mixed sounds that's too loud.

Do I need to buy Miles Sound System to change these sounds? If so, that is not cool. I shouldn't have to pay to fix sound mixing errors. BTW, I am professional sound engineer, so this is not some rando's opinion

Thanks!

Also -- how do I change my stardock forum name? I made it when I was frustrated at the lack of support 7 years ago and never posted but there appears to be no way to change it.

Totally agree with the comment. I have the exact same issue since the game was released. Biggest problem for me is when I 'unanchor" and then "anchor" a shipyard. The sound is so loud I have to either mute or take my headphones off before doing the action. I thought it was something off with my system setup, interesting that I am not the only one with the problem.

Nope that shipyard anchor sound is WAY too loud.

I, too, try to remember to mute before moving a shipyard. Occasionally I forget, and wake up the whole neighborhood.

For those who don't like the shipyard anchor sound, I have a mod that "fixes" the problem. You can read the post about it here.

Thank you, will try it out.

cool, will check out the mod. The anchor sound (and some of the planetary artifacts) are loud for me as well. The anchor is the worst.

I have been asking for this for years and have never been able to get a working solution.
