modelshopbelfast.com Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 Thought you might like to see a video of the 071/111 sound decoder we're working on. The decoder we have released already is tailored to the Athern chassis for MIR kits so its great to be able to work on adjusting the settings to have it work perfectly with Murphys forthcoming released. Weve a number of adjustments to make but heres a clip of how things are progressing. Thanks to one of our regulars for allowing us to film on his Maryville Junction layout, makes a more interesting backdrop than our test bench! As always with video clips is difficult to give the full effect of the decoder, feel free to call in to the shop for a demonstration Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noel,the 071 class sound chip is the best from what I have heard between it and the 201 and 141.I had a loan of one of Gerry Byrnes 071s a while back and she Is a beaut.must get a chip when funds get better.

Kirley Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 Have we a contest on which sound chip best captures the 071? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Retro Herbie Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 They are both the same sound file, they were originally produced on LOK sound decoders but as the cost of V4 Lok Sound increased the decision was made to produce them on Zimo decoders meaning the retail on them is under £99 sterling where as the same on a Lok Sound would be nearly £135. Only difference in running between the two decoders is the notch up / notch down function is on the Lok Sound and not on the Zimo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
enniscorthyman Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 They both sound good to me.The video of the new MM071 with sound is fantastic and captures all the power and glory of the real thing.Jeepers I am glad the new chips are not 135 quid as it's expensive enough.
