Surroundtraxx DSP 80
Posted by blabride on Saturday, January 13, 2018 10:47 PM

Does anyone have one of these? I am having a hard time finding information about which diesel prime mover sounds it has. The manual on Surroundtraxx website has 10 listed but most dealer's have it listed with only 5 but does not say which five. 

Is the manual wrong or the dealers?

Thanks

SB

For future search reference the DSP 80 does have 10 different diesel prime mover sounds. It was released that way. Many of the online dealers have not updated their websites from the original annoucement from Soundtraxx that originally had only 5. The only drawback is the EMD 710 Turbo and GE Gevo 12 are the lastest and it cannot be updated in the future.

Not a problem for me as I am using it to supplement the on board sound on the locos I have that do have sound. Which about 40% do. It does sound fantastic run through an AV receiver and out to good bookshelf speakers and a woofer in non transponding mode. Although, if my layout was bigger than the 16 by 18 that it is the sound might be confusing and out of place.
