- This is a quick test of the nee (Free) ESU HiFi sound project that can be downloaded from the ESU website via the download tab.
Naturally you will need the Lokprogrammer hardware to be able to update the loksound decoders firmware and install the sound file or contact your retailer that offers a reblow service or a friend that will do it for you. - Авто та транспорт
Wow! What a nice sounding loco ❤
For a free download it’s certainly very good.
Hi, this sounds so good I’m going to load it onto my Hornby class 31 network rail loco, Roads and rails have videos on all the Esu free sound files, thanks for sharing.
The hifi range do sound that bit better has to be said!😊
I’m hoping they bring the rest of the classes out over time. The notching seem to be the same on each project (7-8). The drive hold works well so you have plenty of time learning to get the most from notching up and down manually. No wheel slipping function, but you can still (sort of) simulate that quickly switching drive hold and notching with functions 6,7,8.
That sounds pretty good. Class 50 next 🤞🏻
I hope they do all the UK diesel.
Awesome sound on the loco, what type of speaker are you using in this?
EM2 inside the body mounted above the sound decoder.
Hi. What is the difference between hifi ESU sound decoders and regular ESU decoders, as these hifi ones tend to be cheaper? Are they inferior? Just trying to get my head around them, and can’t seem to find an answer. Thanks in advance 👍🏻
The decoders I use are standard v5XL that has the latest firmware that gets installed onto the decoder when putting the HiFi sound project onto it.
The decoders price is the same has always, so I don’t know what your talking about for pricing, unless you where looking at the cheaper ones that don’t have motor drive which is what ESU released earlier in the year.
The v5MLK 21pin sound decoder has a different power output for lighting functions that require it such has Dapols later Class 08 that doesn’t have a top light.
If your modelling a smaller scale you need to check the model manufacturers instructions for which one to use in its product.
You can aways call Roads & Rails or visit their website for the right version requirements for what model you have.
@@GronkstonModelRailway thanks. Hifi decoders are described as budget decoders on DC Kits with Legomanbiffo sound files, and are significantly cheaper than the regular sound file for a 37 (£90 v £125)…hence why I’m talking price in my valid question 👍🏻
@@Eccles_Hall give richard a call at Roads and Rails to make sure what your getting for the cheaper version decoder. Has far as for me the only thing HiFi is the sound files available from ESUs download section not the decoder its going on. My knowledge of the different smaller decoders is limited has I only model O gauge locos that need the v5XL version and the Dapol 08 requires an 21MLK which I have not done yet has its still got a Zimo.
Biffos HiFi class 31 is a little different than the free ESU, both are very clear and you wouldn’t be disappointed in either, the only thing I haven’t done yet is see how the free one drives the motors has my EcoS died and I’m waiting for an Roco Z21XL to be delivered when ever that will be……
@@Eccles_Hall I’ve just been onto the Roads and Rails site and what they list has “HiFi decoder” is a standard V5 with the free ESU sound installed on it, its the same decoder for any other sound project. Nothing different, They are basically selling the decoder at its normal rrp with possible a small charge for installing the sound onto the decoder.
So if you wanted anything else you pay the price for the sound project that they install on the blank sound decoder.
I can’t give you any more help on your enquiry has I’m the wrong person to ask. Call the retailer.
