Open Sound Data Catalog https://desktopstation.net/sounds/ Created on 2021/04/17 19:22:02 This catalog introduces a list of locomotives and sound data available on Open Sound Data, a project for distributing Japanese-style sound data for digital model railroads (DCC). Use of the data is free of charge, but compliance with the terms and conditions is required. Please refer to the Open Sound Data website for more information. Old Kokuden Type nose suspension drive Provided by MB3110A@zhengdao_X The sound of a suspended motor is something that we cannot hear around us anymore. The ESU sound decoder fulfilled my wish that the nostalgic sound of the suspension motor would remain in service forever. The sound source is based on the running sound of Tobu 3050 series, and various operation sounds such as old auxiliary equipment are added to make it highly versatile. The sound source is based on the running sound of Tobu 3050 series. This data can be used with the LokSound V4 series and LokSound 5 series, but the LokSound V4 rescue version has some limitations in sound quality and functions.

I wanted to preserve the sound of the original engine in a model, so I combined the sound recorded by MB3110A with my own sound. I would be happy if you could run it with the diesel sound. -
