<p>How DCC became synonomous with sound?</p><p> </p><p>That's easy - as far as I can tell is has only been within the past couple of years that locos have come from the factory with sound. these locomotives have all had dual mode DCC-DC decoders. On DC you get limited sound functions compared to DCC, you can partially remedy this in some cases with a DC programer designed for your specific engine. QSI has one. To get the most functions you generally need to have DCC. I think that is where the association is made.</p><p>For DC - the great part is that you can run sound - another diisadvantage may be that should you buy the extra programmer (for better control and more functions) - it may not be compatible with other brands of sound units'</p><p> If you want an HO scale Dash 8 with sound - then i think your only choice is Atlas - but a fine choice indeed!!</p>
