Thanks, I love the effect too.
Engineer-Joe posted:Well?? Was the speaker from the kit? Have you tried a feature reset? It sounds awful quiet? You didn't re-use the 16 ohm stock PS1 speaker did you?
Yes, Kit speaker @ 4 ohms.
There have been a few soundsets released where the volume was lower than others. Later releases had the soundset's volume corrected. Usually you can find a later release and use the sounds.
I will try some others, not enamored with this one for the most part.
I really prefer to use an enhanced speaker like a peerless 4 ohm that will fit. Usually that only helps the low end sounds and not the total volume.
Good to know, what's your source for these?

Thank you, and yes it's Scaletrax. I love it personally, bends well, looks great, and trains run well on it and the switches.
rtr12 posted:The volume pot is for conventional mode only, doesn't do anything in DCS mode. As for the sound sets, I defer to others with more experience.
That was my understanding too.
Glad to hear the upgrade went so smoothly though, I may try one myself someday.
I had it in my mind as being more complicated, but once I tore into the loco it all went well. The instructions are well done and simple to follow. I read them over twice before starting. I have my GTEL I plan to convert next.
