Shedmaster 47 Posted January 23, 2020 Share Posted January 23, 2020 Hi folks, Happy new year to you all !! I wondered if anyone out there just happens to know the exact CV number to adjust to alter the sound settings on a Bachman class 37/ 521 ( 32-394 DS Colas ) It's new and just gives you a website to visit to obtain any decoder info from ..!! My signals not to hot and it keeps crashing whenever I try !! Plus what's the range I can choose from ( 0 through to 255 ) or has it changed in recent years ? Many thanks in advance for any help Yours Allan Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium ELTEL Posted January 23, 2020 RMweb Premium Share Posted January 23, 2020 The CV number will depend on what manufacturers sound chip is fitted. Was the loco bought with the manufacturers sound chip ? Eltel 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

charliepetty Posted February 6, 2020 Share Posted February 6, 2020 If you get the chance, pop into a model show where we are demonstrating the Legomanbiffo Sounds, you will be amazed what difference speakers make. Charlie 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
cravensdmufan Posted February 6, 2020 Share Posted February 6, 2020 (edited) I recently purchased a Bachmann factory sound fitted 37 012 Loch Rannoch (32-790ADS). Sounded very tinny because the supplied speaker was not enclosed, so I fitted a Roads&Rails double iPhone speaker and it now sounds absolutely fantastic. CV63 set to 70 is plenty loud enough for my small railway room. Edited February 6, 2020 by cravensdmufan Incorrect TOPS number! 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold tarifa Posted February 6, 2020 RMweb Gold Share Posted February 6, 2020 Remember to set CV32 = 1 before adjusting CV63. CV32 being an index setting. Mike Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

However the choice is up to the user. Mike 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike Hi Mike, The reference on page 89 of the manual refers to individual sound slots NOT the main volume which CV31 and CV32 should both be =0 Then CV63= the value you require.(0-192) A little misleading but hope this clears things up.

Locoman58 Posted February 7, 2020 Share Posted February 7, 2020 11 hours ago, Richard Croft said: All I can say to that is I never knew, but I've changed literally hundreds of volumes using CV63 on models I've worked on and not had any problems yet. Richard True. All CVs up to 255 dont need any index CVs at all so index Values don't matter. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
