I would like to reduce the engines sound and increase wind, up to 90% or more above 250 knots, and much higher than it is now for lower speeds. You could take a look at the sound.ini file (open it with Notepad) in the FSX\Captain_Sim\737 folder. I don't they are the sounds you need to edit though. SO You could open the WAV files, found in the FSX\SimObjects\Airplanes\CS_B737-200\sound folder, with a sound editing program and reduce/increase the volume that way. Or.. Change the output volume in the sound.cfg found in the same folder as the WAV files.

Thanks Markoz.
Im doing that now.
The sound.ini from Captain_sim folder are only click and cabin sounds. So that I leave alone.

The sound.cfg is very interesting because you spot lots of bugs or incomplete stuff
There are two wind sounds
a) 707_wind.wav
b) VC10_wav

Neither of them is used.
The sound.cfg uses the default fsx sounds from the sounds folder.

It uses five different wind sounds in combination or alone so its very complicated to change parameters. Besides it would require to lower all the different engine sounds too.

The another company 737ngx uses a nice combination of wind sounds that are predominant in flight giving a real feeling, and its not much different in the 737-727-707,

(Wind sound is the same and doesn't change with time or modern planes, its just the same sound for each speed for any plane) It would change if the mass or airdynamics are radical different, but there is no shape difference between the 200 and the ngx series, and very little among the other two.

I thought to replace the entire WIND chapter from their sound.cfg and put it in the CS planes, but that would still require to adjust the engines volume. Will try.
