Hey Reg, George and Norman, Great interview and layout tour of a fine layout!!! Enjoyed the virtual visit with my friends!!!

GG👀 & Norman~, Hello guys! Another fun episode of Soundbytes. Reggie's layout is amazing and super well done! 👍 I agree with having to gut new models to achieve the preferred results. I remember when George finally got around to changing a MTH unit to run with Tsunami sound and I was smiling knowing what real hurdles were coming while enjoying the great video tutorial. You guys are right on point with making modeling better with sound and lights. 👍👍 Love the banter with you two is fun!. Thanx Thom...

We're glad you enjoyed the episode, Reggie's layout is truly inspiring!

I wonder how long it will be before a maker has a board where you need to use combination of Fx so that you can control a greater number of outputs.

[@SoundtraxxDCC]

We have up to 8 function outputs on our decoders.

May George or Norman do something similar for the F40PH and F59PH models from Rapido? I know George has done excellent videos on installing 21pin decoders into these models; however, I was not sure of any CV work arounds to get various lighting components to work like Norman discussed with the 44 Tonner. Other than taking out the factory installed mother board and hardwiring a Tsunami 2 into said models. 🙃 Like George said this can be fun, but not really since the models are not cheap anymore and for one re-wire it is kind of annoying to say the least.

I will pass the idea along, but when the manufacturer is not following NMRA standards we do not know what they changed and we do not have access to every model.
