Q:

I HAVE GRAINY SOUND. ANY HELP ON GETTING DECENT SOUND BACK WOULD BE APPRECIATED! 

A:

There should be almost no sound in the tower view. You're quite a distance from the airplane and, perhaps, enclosed in the tower.

The sound in the cockpit views is quite muffled from that in the spot plane view. You are inside the cabin and have varying amounts of sound insulation depending on which airplane you are in. I'm not sure what "grainy" sound is like. If it is distorted, you may have some sound board problems. The least exotic sound boards seem to give the best results. If you have installed the FS98 converter and the patch your sound has been changed to mono. There are lines to add to the top of your FS98.cfg to restore the stereo sound. 

  [SOUND]
     Channels=2
     SamplesPerSec=22050

There are also new stereo sound files out there. I'm not sure they apply to the engine sounds, though. I think they are for the adventure sounds.
