Nice! I came here for this pack. The Carenado 'vans really needed some love. I notice that there are some odd transitions during the start...if you don't add the fuel right at ~12%, the sound will drop out. I am in the habit of motoring up until it stabilizes at like 20%. I think the reverse sounds could be a bit more prominent too, but it's a great start and I'm happy to have it!

Also, I think what you noticed about the different engine sounds could be due to different props or engine conversions. There are some oddball conversions (Blackhawk or Supervan, which installs a TPE331) but almost all 208Bs have a PT6A-114 and a 3-blade prop. In 2018-19 they started putting on 4-blade props at the factory (like the Caravan in MSFS) but there are still not many of them out there. A 4-blade prop would have a higher pitch sound. This is what I think of for "normal" Caravans though: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xXuOBdSr4uc https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xSazs5hxNH8

Glad to know 😊 , also will check soon the start up phase and i'll change the reverse sounds if i get a better sound sample

These are not bad,almost close to the what the Caravan sounds like imo the closet rendition to what the pt6a-114 is MSFS2020 Defualt 208 EX. What kind of Caravan was this recorded on?

All Sound Samples are not recorded from a single specific Aircraft , and not sure about the Exact Engine ref used in those Models , only 2 Engine sound Profiles was noticed ( mentioned above)

Is this for the EX too or just the HD version in the video? getting an error trying to load the aircraft: Couldn't find a GUID for this event name! snapshot:/InOut (soun_fmod_container.cpp:61)

This happen because a file from the old sounds still exist inside the fmod folder : Fix : Delete the fmod folder and re-install it Note : There is only 1 configuration made for the Carenado C208 named "Car_C208B.snd" > if the Default fmod file named differently ( exp "C208EX.snd" ) , make a copy of "Car_C208B.snd" and rename it with the same name as the old fmod file
