  1. Cv3 and Cv4 do not influence the chuffs rate The value corresponds to the time in seconds from start to max speed The value of Cv4 again corresponds to the time in seconds from max speed to stop Cv9 changes the motor frequency and sometimes it can be helpful All details are published on our website at the main menu bar at the Technical Info The problem is that most of clients do not take notice of reading the manual of instructions which could reduce frustrations When Phil received our decoder he noticed an electrical pop sound in the file perhaps due to a memory flash of the decoder in subject which thanks to his patience was rectified by a new reblow and he now seems to be satisfied for the result The process of a chuff rate sync can take quite a few minutes and sometimes can be quicker than other times due even to the motor of the model train We tested the same decoder with the same values on a Bachmann model and immediately the chuff rate was not in sync but the decoder was responding at its best just like when it was connected to a similar Hornby model although once again the chuff rate needed to be readjusted We are thankful to all our clients for their understanding and cooperation
  2. CV353.mp4 CV353 value 25and CV354 value 193 Dapol model The decoder responds very well CV354.mp4
  3. Hello Thank you for your consideration Our D&H 8 Pin is a very popular decoder due to its dimensions (20,2 x 10,5 x 3,0) (2,6/1,6 W (4/8 Ω)) and to the wired harness that make it easy to be manipulated. ESU Micro is a small decoder as well but it comes with a rigid flexible harness They are both in stock Choice is yours!!! Saluti Alex
  4. This feature does not alter the quality of our projects Presumably it would help the modeller to increase or decrease the values of CV 196 and CV 197 directly on the driver's cab of the Lokprogrammer if the decoders have been updated with the latest version. The level of the volume can also be controlled. Locomansounds

  6. Portigliatti in Torino can offer the Zimo chip with the authentic sound
  7. Hello hello Locomansounds is still here!! Waiting for our new Generation 3 D&H decoder deliveries we have now converted our existing steam library to ESU as well Conversion is still ongoing and our library is getting more and more populated of new projects for our quality steam and something very interesting…… We are now launching and increasing our new DIESEL projects at affordable price for all modellers Please see a short clips for our Class 50 prototype while other projects are coming out from the oven!!!
  8. Please, check out this playlist: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q-Ri_bQW2j8&list=PLZB86Yx18yLddwEMXrQeKeY3lRZQjmzEM Listen to the sounds at the higher speed Available on both ESU and D&H Saluti Locoman
  9. Yes, we think so too. That's why the D&H decoders have an (adjustable!) "Automatic Coasting Feature" in shunting mode. Listen here: Saluti Locoman
  10. Hello The SD22A is in the manual Please take a look and surely you will find the help you are looking for Thank you Alex
  11. Please see page 26 of the D&H manual on our website CV 9 should be arranged accordingly in order to obtain a smoother run saluti
  12. Thank you for your comments, much appreciated. This is not entirely clear but thanks for pointing it out so we can add a CV for adjustment. Absolutely not similar to an A1 with 3 x Walschaerts as the rebuilt W1 had Gresley's conjugated gear which determines the accentuation of chuffs (Gresley beat). Timbre of chuffs is largely influenced by the geometry of the smokebox, so the A4 would be a tight fit. The difference with A4 is not only a larger cylinder volume but interestingly also a smaller exhaust valve size which should make the chuffs deeper and longer. Saluti Locoman
  13. According to our research the rebuilt W1 must have had deeper and slightly longer steam chuffs than the A4, and probably a deeper chime sound. Due to the larger driver's cab coal shoveling was probably slower, too. You can either use our A4 project on ESU and manually pitch down both chuff and chime sounds (the project is prepared for this). Or you can wait a few days and we will do that for you and we will also slow down the coal shoveling. Within the next two weeks we will also readjust our A4 project on D&H decoders to achieve the W1 rebuilt sound. Saluti Locoman
  14. Thank you but I am still devastated It will take time but I hope you will enjoy the sound
  15. We have opened a thread for the W1, please see here: https://www.rmweb.co.uk/community/index.php?/topic/168871-locomansounds-announce-new-w1-hush-hush-project/ Saluti Alex
  16. Prototype project for single chimney W1 is ready! Double blast pipe version will follow. (Rebuilt 60700 due in January which is more or less an A4 sound.) Video to follow soon (if we get an undamaged model . . . ) Just some features: - matching reversing gear sounds for both single and double chimney models - start in running or starting condition possible (it's a compound engine!) - correct whistle matched to correct operating pressure (it's NOT a chime . . .) - HP and LP sounds for some components - different chuffs and blower sounds for both single and double chimney - excellent high speed chuffing (as always . . .) - real playable whistle - active brake We care about details. Let's see when others try to copy us. Stay tuned Saluti Locoman
  17. Locomansounds is proud to announce the release of the W1 Hush-Hush projects in January. There will be different versions. The projects will have the correct whistles, one of which will be real playable. Active brake function is a matter of course. Not only will the special technical features of this locomotive be considered, we will also take into account the differences between the variants. We have a graduate mechanical engineer in our team who on the basis of a large number of technical documents has analyzed exactly how the locomotive including the ancillary units must have sounded. Our goal is to bring the best sound for this locomotive to the market. Let yourself be surprised! Saluti Alessandro
  18. When doing technical research for our sound projects we had a graduate mechanical engineer (vehicle technology) on our team. Based on technical documents he found out that there were probably 3 variants (the last two only for a short time): 1. Single chimney and a gear apparatus above the LH cylinder, 2. Single chimney and gear apparatus removed, but an additional bar rod above the LH gear instead 3. Same as 2. but with a double blastpipe. Saluti Alessandro
  19. In the latest issue of Hornby Magazine HM172 October Mike Wild shows how to install sound into a Hornby V Schools class.

  20. New video out. Please note that on some takes the audio is not in sync with the video (sound comes too late). https://www.keymodelworld.com/article/locoman-sounds-thompson-a2-4-6-2-sound-project Saluti Locoman
  21. Thompson A2 sound projects now released. Please have a look at the website Locomansounds
  22. Hello It is on D&H Saluti
