Audio bug in Merlin

Okay, I dont know, but this MIGHT be a bug or something, but whenever im flying the Merlin, The dang Voice Chat or whatever, it keeps on saying: "GO GO GO" GO GO GO" FALL BACK' BAIL OUT!" It REALLY PISSES ME OFF. Its all spam, and im gettin tired of it, usually i do fly with passengers, but even with just 1 person with me, it still does it a lil, idk maybe the idiots are SPAMMING TO ANNOY!.but yeah. Also, i think i found a fix for some merlin laggers, just go to Audio, turn Sound Quality to Medium, OR turn EAX off, then connect, then test, then get back in the server. But for me, i have ALL settings set to HIGH. see ya on the battlefield, oh also, I fly with an Saitek X52, brand new, and i ALWAYS use VOIP. You'll find me on thebattlearena mostly, but other than that, im flyin jets.

I own a Saitek X52 aswell, of course I play it on a 32 bit Windows platform. You may want to check this site:

Saitek Drivers & Softwear

I also recommend spending the time creating a profile and using the Saitek Smart Technology (SST) software. This softwear will allow your X52 joystick to integrate into your computer and save it's key settings in relation to what key you use on your keyboard, or mouse click.

Chances are if you are pressing buttons or using any of the HAT switches it may be spamming your radio signals. There may be a conflict with your default joystick keys and it's acting like it's pressing a different button. Just be careful of those HAT buttons, two exist on the flight yoke and one exists on the throttle controller so you can be accidently pressing one of those.

But like I said. After you install the Saitek Smart Technology (SST) you can map any button you press to do the same on the controller. Like if you use the Spacebar to use afterburners, you can set one of the buttons on the controllers to act like you're pressing the Spacebar. No new button mapping required to put into the Battlefield 2 option screen. I'm sure this'll all make sense when you get familiar on how it works.

Hope this helps.

Hey thanks for the move, i thought it would get moved, and thread title changed. Thanks If i may make a suggestion, stirp the Merlin, and the Huey also, (it has lag also i hear) and rebuild from the ground-up and test the Merlin. Also to M.Warreen, i know it cant be my 3 or 4 HAT's(god theres SO MANY THINGS ON THE X52 I LOVE IT) because i NEVER press them.
