For sound enthusiasts of the railways of Victoria, Australia...

DCCSound is an authorised ESU stockist and we offers authentic sound projects, made in Australia, to suit ESU LokSound decoders. 3 easy options:

​

1) Pre-programmed ESU decoders available through the Sound projects page above

2) U-program your own ESU LokSound V4 decoder: simply email us  of the decoder's serial number from your decoder using a LokProgrammer and we will email the desired sound project for downloading to your model

3) Send in your decoder and for a nominal fee, we load the sound project

Visit the Sound projects page to see our ever expanding library of projects (over 60 unique projects).

​

We offer decoder installations services also, should you wish for us to complete the work. Examples are listed at the Sound installs link above. Please contact us for a quote.

Now available from SDS models, with factory sound created by DCCSound, remastered with Full Throttle features in 2018.

Built in 1930 at Victorian Railways' Newport workshops, 58 RM was one of a group of rail cars (later known as rail motors) to service the state's country lines. 88 years later, the rail motor is operated throughout the state by DERMPAV on charter services from Newport workshops. 

Don't forget to get yourself on one of their upcoming trips: www.dermpav.com.au

Our brand new DERM sound project will feature the following recordings of 58 RM taken in 2018. Every single DCCSound project is unique to the prototype recorded, something which isn't common practice. As control systems (engine, electrical, compressors, pneumatic valves including horns) are unique to each prototype, we end up writing sound flow code that is unique and specific to the prototype. 

Features:

• RVB Hurricane 3 chime horns (unique DERM valve)
  
• Twin DDED (GM) 6-71 diesel engines (Roots blown)
  
• Series to parallel electric transition throttle control
  
• Agile Sound Flow (ASF) - faster responding sound to DCC cab inputs
  
• Latest Full Throttle features including Drive-hold and Active Brake
  
• Passenger doors plus Guard's whistle
  
• Rail clack/wheel squeal (speed sensitive)
  
• Brake release and set
  
• Brake squeal
  
• Coupler slap and brake line disconnect
  
• Headlight switch sound
  
• GE air compressor (variable speed) with cut-in valves
  
• Windscreen wiper (single speed)
  
• Taildisc
  

High tech digital control for Old school tech! Sound project now available.
