I want to increase the sound (if possible) on the 18000 gas turbine engine sound. However I am not familiar with the loksound V5 sound decoders. Any help regarding which CVs to change would be appreciated. I know when changing some individual sounds other CVs have to be changed, but for the life of me I cannot remember which ones.

The sound are set quite high now so be carefull:

 

CV259  Gas Turbine is set at 254 (Full Volume)

CV63    Overall Sounds is set at 170, do not exceed 185.  (The decoder 'could' be damaged)

 

If not enough then dump the cheap speaker fitted and fit two of these.

This is the first complaint re our sound in the 18000, over 400 sound models have been sold by rails and 30+ by us to fit in none sound locos.

HI Charlie, It is not a complaint, I am more than happy with the sound file, I just wondered if it was possible to make it a bit louder, I have the speakers you recommned fitted. Maybe its time for me to invest in a hearing aid? my wife always says 'theres none so deaf as those who do not want to hear' especially when it comes to washing up!

We will not be attending the Erith show sadly, purely on costs, the Fuel alone is £160.00 + Hotel, Meals & Stand Rentals, simply not viable anymore.

Just send us your decoder and order it online, the project is for a ESU Version 5 only. 

Just ring us: 01132 563415.
