Bruk, if you want to try out your Legacy sound boards all you need is an engine that has Lionel modular tmcc boards and swap out the audio board. It doesn't have to be ERR. ERR uses a standard Lionel R2LC or lately an 8 bit R4LC.

I already know for a fact that it works if that's what you guys wanted to know, I have tested that many times before...

The rail sounds 6 board was just a newer version of the 5.5 and previous versions to get away from the chip design and be able to program directly. If you guys have Legacy 990 you can actually run your LEGACY locomotives in the TMCC mode and with the speed steps. You have to change the settings. You can even run your engines in TMCC mode and with Legacy RailSounds on. Anyways I thought what mikado 4501 wanted to know was if he can use the ERR commander with a Legacy RS6 board. He said he wanted just the Legacy Sounds...and my guess is he is trying to get it from a Vision Line Hudson. which is equipped with a RS6 package. Not the "6.5" which is the RSLite board.

But can the tmcc R4LC send the 9 bit code needed for legacy sounds like quilllable whistle?
