Release the kraken!

I'm getting a nitrado server set up so the buddies and I can play when the update goes live and it's asking me if it's going to be the experimental branch or just regular 7 days to die, which do I pick for the update?
Experimental, wont be stable till july or so

 
I've watched quite a few streams and have yet to see anyone mining.  Do we know if the mining sounds, specifically metal on metal, have been updated?  Also, with all the new inventory sounds, is there an option to disable them?  As a person with sound sensitivity, I refuse to use any power tools due to the "ear assault" lol.  I would love options for quieter task related sounds if possible.
The stream I watched had a small amount of "mining", mostly just for quick rock and clay. The sounds seemed to be the same for both. I did notice the shovel has a different animation as well as the wrench, but from what I could tell, the tools made the same sounds against clay, rock and iron ore. Not sure on power tools?

Ive seen some mods that made tools quieter, post or search in the forums for them. 

 
i do that too!
yep, i crouch also while mining.  i had someone from the 7 days discord make a mod for me a while ago that changed the current metal on metal sound to something similar to the stone ax on metal sound.  it made my mining SO much better...  i've asked countless people what they think the current metal on metal sound is even supposed to sound like and i've not found an accurate description of what the game is trying to mimic.   it sounds like some sort of strange plastic/metal abomination in my opinion LOL

What time is the experimental going live?
not soon enough.  i've been refreshing all day.  with that being said, i think sometime after noon central time which is 1pm eastern 10am pacific. but, it will be there when it's ready

I feel like they are just yanking our chains with that sound. It reminds me of the kind of sound that irritates people, like rubbing a balloon or nails on a chalkboard.

In sneak mode every sound you make gets massively muffled, including your auger's. Maybe they did away with that for 1.0 but my bet is on they didn't.
