Chrisjh Posted May 4, 2020 Share Posted May 4, 2020 Just wondering how I increase the sound volume on the Bachmann Class 37?. I have a gaugemaster DCC prodigy unit. Also I am wondering if it is relatively easy to take the shell off a class 37 Chassis, as I want to swap my class DRS 37 for a more modern Compass livery Class 37. Many thanks and best wishes, apologies if this has been asked elsewhere. Stay Safe Best, Chris Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stay Safe Best, Chris In terms of increasing the volume, there should be an instruction sheet that tells you how to do it included. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chrisjh Posted May 4, 2020 Author Share Posted May 4, 2020 Many thanks unfortunately there doesn't appear to be a sheet which I may have lost as the loco is 2 years old. Any thoughts would be much appreciated. Best, Chris Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete the Elaner Posted May 4, 2020 Share Posted May 4, 2020 I am guessing this is a Loksound Select. Manual is attached. ESU-LokSound-Select-V40-Manual-v3.0.pdf Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The speaker wants sealing, try Plastercine Clay for children, role some into a 5mm Sausage shape then form it into a 20mm X 40 mm oblong, then repove the speaker from the silly plate in the loco, attach the speaker to the clay them press the speaker plus its clay houshing into the slot/hole in the model. If the space behind the speaker is hollow and the sides are airtight, the speajer will be far louder.

Iskra Posted May 5, 2020 Share Posted May 5, 2020 I've just got the instructions for my Bachmann DCC Sound 37 out and it says that using Function F15 On/Off cycles through the five different volume settings from quietest to loudest. So it might be worth giving that a go first. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
