BosKonay Posted April 26, 2012 Share Posted April 26, 2012 That's just fantastic - who does the sound chip? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedRich Posted April 26, 2012 Share Posted April 26, 2012 That's a pretty accurate sound recording Eamonn, just like I remember them. Rich, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
enniscorthyman Posted April 26, 2012 Author Share Posted April 26, 2012 The sound chip was done by Mr Sound Guy.The EGV was built by Gerry Byrne with Bill Bedford overlays and even has a smoke generator built in.If any one wants one,I am sure Garrath in the Belfast shop Could get them.

The sound chip that was supplied was the lok pilot which as you know Is not cheap.I don't know Seamus if there is a cheaper chip that could be used just for the EGV sound.It does add realism to the train though.

djkonore Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 Gareth told me a few months ago that he's going to be selling these. Not sure if he's just selling the sound chip or the finished product installed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Retro Herbie Posted May 1, 2012 Share Posted May 1, 2012 Yep the EGV decoders will be available shortly, there are just a few tweaks to remove the ambient noise from the announcements that were working on at the mo. A Class decoders are pretty much ready to go too, I just need to get half a day to get up to Downpatrick and record the horns then we're complete. This modelling business is a 24/7 job, never enough hours in the day! Lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This modelling business is a 24/7 job, never enough hours in the day! Lol That's a smashing EGV, Gerry. Does anyone know if these ever became available either as rtr or the sound chip? The recording is excellent although I'm glad RH tried to clean up the noise. They announcements were frequently semi-intelligible depending on the PA system in they station itself. It's a fairly neat idea to link the announcements into the train, they only happened when it was in the station. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
