Is there a sound decoder with the correct sounds made for a Shay ?
I have a 1970s United brass Shay that was remotored with a Sagami can motor that runs pretty smooth
and i was thinking of trying to up grade it to DCC and sound

I like the sound of the Tsunami
but question now is will it fit ?
Here is what a Micro in a Spectrum Shay looks like. Do not know where you would put the speaker. I am not sure the Micro would have three cylinder sound. I never checked for that. You can find the Micro dimensions on the SoundTraxx site.

I have put a Light Logging Micro in a MDC Climax. I hard wired the decoder. It is in the boiler and the speaker is up inside the cab roof in a plastic baffle that came with the speaker. Really not much of a baffle. I had to do a lot of CV fine tuning to get a somewhat decent sound.
This might give you some ideas. Don't forget to check the max motor current at twelve volts.

If you ever fall over in public, pick yourself up and say “sorry it’s been a while since I inhabited a body.” And just walk away.
