Have a large scale and my choices of prime mover are GE, EMD, Alco.
I choose one, select save and it is confirmed, but no change in the sounds they all sound like alcos and kind of “noisy”, hard to describe but more high frequency trashy noises than low frequency motor sounds.
I am using a 2.5" speaker that has lots of bass capability, so it’s not the speaker.
Thanks for any insight on the sounds.

oh, decoder reports v4 on both soundset and software.
OK, talked to TCS tech support, actually Norm Stenzel, who I knew from when QSI Solutions was owned by Tony Parisi.
So the short story is I have some more experimenting to do, I can reproduce the failure, but I do want to be able to have a successful way to set this.
Also, some more of the strange behavior I have seen was explained… and it makes sense now knowing some of the internals of the design.
I do apparently have the 4.1 software and soundset, will double check that, since the system does not announce the sub version, but I may have the hardware issue that has since been fixed.
Sorry to sound vague about this, but I don’t want to sully the reputation of this decoder until I am 100% sure of the things I have seen.
I’ll be posting a summary here as I progress, unless I get into conflict with someone. The details of my findings will all be on my web site.
