I don't know if it's my setup or what, but sometimes voices are so quiet I can't even hear them, and sometimes they are incredibly loud, usually when they become loud they sound really bad, like a tinny sound. Anybody else running into this?

Yep

@CL60: I definitely felt that the mix was a bit off - I just went into the sound settings, turned down the music and sound effects by a bit and cranked up the voice volume. Also, playing with subtitles helps, some of the accents are pretty thick.

The pc version had this issue too if I recall correctly

Didn't for me.

yeah it does for me too. Tried turning the sound and music volume down while leaving speech on the highest setting. But that does not seem to help

Yeah I had this issue  too, just solved it by turning down Music to 5, sound to 8, and leaving voice at 10.

My only issue is a few sound cut outs. Never had issues with voices. Where did it happen for you. 

I have noticed that as well

There is defiantly something wrong with the mixing. Unfortunate.

Me too. I'm also having an issue of having the talk prompt coming up in the middle of my fist fights.

I don't have any issues and I've been playing the game quite a bit. I haven't touched any of the sound options at all. Are you playing with the game installed? Like seriously the only sound issue I have had in my probably 20 hours with the game so far was once when someone started talking during a loading screen.

Yeah, same problem. It's weird.

Mine's installed.

I'm not getting the issue at all. Mines installed so maybe that's why? Not sure.

Nope. I've got it installed too, and almost every voice in the game is really loud and has a lot of clipping.

No problems for me, I'm listening through a surround headset but it has been fine 3 hrs in. I did have to adjust the mix though turned sound and music down and left voices up. I don't have it installed.

Wow this is bananas. Really??? I haven't had a single hitch in the sound... the only thing that could be different is that I have the Dark Edition, but I highly doubt that would affect anything. Same copies of the discs. I don't know what to tell you. Maybe clear your 360's cache? That probably wouldn't help either but it's worth a shot. I have no idea why some peoples would be this bad and others flawless.

@CL60: It's got to do with uneven mixing between the various elemets. Just do what @Marz suggested and it should solve the problem.

Yeah, I turned music and sound effects down a bit and it seemed to fix it for the most part, or at least it's not as noticeable as before.

I had the same problem in the transition part between chapter 2 to chapter 3 where you have the option to occupancy someone to a certain destination. He kept talking the whole time but could barely hear him due to that uneven mixing. I guess someone forgot to check the Normalize option when doing the final mix.

For me I just barely hear Geralt. Everyone else sounds pretty clear but it's as if they wanted to accentuate his low growly voice and overdid it. Like others had suggested I just lowered music and sound effects to 6 while voice stayed at 10 but still Geralt is sometimes impossible to hear. Not a huge deal but they still have some patching to do I think.

No issues here. I've been playing with a set of Turtle Beach headphones. Honestly If I had any issues with this so far it's that I've seen the glory of the PC version and can't get over how bad it looks even if it looks fantastic in terms of a 360 game.

I haven't heard much issues in the audio, except for some weird crackling sounds in chapter 2 and the battle music wouldn't stop in one scenario, but a simple restart helped, so that was most likely a bug. I use the Razer Chimaera 5.1 through optical cable directly to the Xbox.

Game's installed and yeah, I'm getting the same various weird audio drops and complete loss at some quick points.
