Locoman58 Posted December 9, 2021 Share Posted December 9, 2021 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 3 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Locoman58 Posted December 16, 2021 Author Share Posted December 16, 2021 (edited) 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 Edited December 16, 2021 by Locoman58 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
