MRC's Diesels "3" Sounder™ Decoder Adds Powerful Alco, "F Unit" & SD60 Diesel Sounds To Any* DCC Non-Sound Diesel Decoder & The New Steam Sounder™ Adds Eight Articulated & Eight Non-Articulated Steam Locomotive Sounds to Any* Non-Sound Steam Locomotive Decoder
Model Rectifier Corporation of Edison, NJ is truly excited to announce the expansion of it's world beating, highly successful Sounder™ DCC decoder product line for model railroading.
The exclusive Sounder is a sound-only decoder and speaker that's easily added to any *HO locomotive equipped with a standard, non-sound decoder or even any piece of rolling stock being pulled by the locomotive equipped with wheel pickups… (Imagine how easier it would be to add sound to any train without the hassle of cramming a sound decoder and speaker in your locomotive).
MRC's Sounders add all 28 NMRA accessory sound function capabilities to locomotives regardless of the make, or brand of decoder installed. The railroader simply "hooks-up" two wires to the track power pickup points in the loco, and suddenly he can enjoy MRC's rich, Brilliance™ sound and the world's most extensive feature set.
Our new Diesel locomotive addition to the Sounder line, The Diesels "3" Sounder provides three new and genuine Alco, "F Unit" and SD60 prime mover sounds like selectable (33) horns, 8-bells, brakes, air releases, pop valves, cooling fans, coupling sounds and more. And not just sound! Using simple soldering techniques, the Sounder can provide a full complement of locomotive lighting effects: Prime Stratolight; Mars; Ditch; Gyro; Strobe (single & double); and on/off function for internal lighting….Wow!!
Our new Steam Sounder with features similar to the Diesel unit, magnificently reproduces eight, genuine articulated and eight, non-articulated steam locomotive prime mover sounds and you can select 33 whistles as well!
Both of these incredibly powerful yet extremely small (17mm) decoders come with fidelity matched 28mm speakers and baffle to enhance the full & powerfully vibrant range, performance and functionality only available from MRC.
