CFS3 Sound File mod, need help!

Most CFS aircraft have the standard syntax line (A below) for wind listed in the sound file. I have a second wind sound clip that is for high speed dives. I want to have both of these effects working. I placed the sound file named corwind in the CFS3 main sound folder and added lines (B below) to the aircraft sound file. Only one of these sound effects will work at a time. I tried adding .1 at the end of the wind_sound syntax heading but no joy. Next I tried adding link=wind_sound.1 but that did not work either. I'm sure there is a simple line of syntax you can add but I'm waving the white flag. Someone who is a better shade tree computer programmer than me, please help. If you know how please cut and paste the corrected syntax lines into your reply.

Lewis

(A)
[WIND_SOUND]
filename=wind3
minimum_volume=6000
maximum_volume=8500
minimum_rate=0.60
maximum_rate=0.90
minimum_speed=40.0
maximum_speed=200.0

(B)
[WIND_SOUND]
filename=corwind
minimum_volume=5500
maximum_volume=14000
minimum_rate=1.0
maximum_rate=2.40
minimum_speed=300.0
maximum_speed=800.0

Hi Lewis11777

I tried this

[WIND_SOUND]
filename=wind3
minimum_volume=6000
maximum_volume=8500
minimum_rate=0.60
maximum_rate=0.90
minimum_speed=40.0
maximum_speed=299.0
link=wind_sound.1

[WIND_SOUND.1]
filename=corwind
minimum_volume=5500
maximum_volume=14000
minimum_rate=1.0
maximum_rate=2.40
minimum_speed=300.0
maximum_speed=800.0

and then I tried this

[WIND_SOUND]
filename=wind3
minimum_volume=6000
maximum_volume=8500
minimum_rate=0.60
maximum_rate=0.90
minimum_speed=40.0
maximum_speed=299.0
viewpoint=1
link=wind_sound.1

[WIND_SOUND.1]
filename=corwind
minimum_volume=5500
maximum_volume=14000
minimum_rate=1.0
maximum_rate=2.40
minimum_speed=300.0
maximum_speed=800.0
viewpoint=2

Still no joy. Im sure it can be done. Someone please step up and show off your knowledge.
