how much might a Mr Soundguy chip be ?

 

Cost €95 last year. The sterling exchange rate change has since made it quite expensive in Euro. Its a Zimo chip.

 

Having said that it is truely fabulous to drive. Just personal taste but I prefer Zimo's 'RealDrive' throttle and braking control to the more direct style of drive on the LokSound chip. Both excellent, I just prefer the Zimo.

I favour the Loksound myself. I prefer the way it drives to the Zimo, but like Noel said that's a matter of taste.

 

I splashed out last year and bought a Lokprogrammer so I can programme and alter my own sounds. The sounds for Irish locos are freely available on ESU's website.

Blank Loksounds can be got for €99 each including shipping from Modelbahnne Lippe in Germany. I can then programme as I like and change the result if I'm not happy with it.
