The SoundTraxx 885617 is a BLU-4408 Blunami digital sound decoder with the EMD sound set. Blunami is a Tsunami2 with a Bluetooth radio added, so it runs three ways: as a normal DCC decoder on any NMRA-compliant system, on plain DC, or in wireless mode straight from your phone or tablet. Wireless mode needs no command station and no programming track — an old DC power pack and the free Blunami app are enough, and CVs can be read and changed over Bluetooth while the locomotive is running. The app is free for iOS and Android. This version is the big-scale Blunami: a 4-amp motor rating and screw terminals instead of solder joints, suited to S, O and Large Scale. Features 9 EMD prime movers: EMD 567 No Transition, EMD 567 Non-Turbo, EMD 567 Turbo, EMD Dual 567, EMD 645 Non-Turbo, EMD 645 Turbo, EMD Dual 645 Turbo, EMD 710 Turbo, EMD 710 G3C-T2 Over 40 air horns and 13 bells, plus air compressors, couplers and dynamos Bluetooth control from the free Blunami app (iOS and Android) — over 300 settings without editing a single CV by hand Dynamic Digital Exhaust (DDE) automatically matches exhaust volume and RPM to the load on the motor, and the app calibrates it for you Three braking types: independent, train and dynamic braking Hyperdrive2 motor control for smooth, creep-speed switching Over 20 Hyperlight lighting effects across 8 function outputs 16 polyphonic sound channels on a 32-bit processor, with a 7-band equalizer and adjustable reverb CurrentKeeper ready — works with the SoundTraxx 810140 CurrentKeeper More Information Item Number: SoundTraxx 885617 Model: BLU-4408 Blunami Sound Set: EMD Diesel Scale: S, O and Large Scale Decoder Size: 69 x 30.5 x 14mm Connection: Screw terminal blocks (no soldering) Max. Motor Stall Current: 4A Function Outputs: 8 Audio Amplifier: 3 Watt, 8-Ohm Load Sound Channels: 16 polyphonic Processor: 32-bit, 28 functions Control Modes: DC, DCC and Bluetooth wireless Shop the full SoundTraxx range, compare every DCC decoder we stock, or see the other EMD / EMD-2 Diesel decoders. A speaker is not included — browse DCC speakers rated 3 watt or better, and find install parts in DCC wiring. Add a SoundTraxx 810140 CurrentKeeper to keep sound alive over dirty track and turnouts. FAQ Do I need a DCC system to use this?No. That is the point of Blunami. It runs on a plain DC power pack with no command station at all — you control it from the free Blunami app over Bluetooth. It is also a fully NMRA-compliant DCC decoder if you already run DCC. Does the app work on Android?Yes. The free Blunami app is published for both iOS and Android. (Some older listings and dealer pages still say iOS only — that is out of date.) Is a speaker included?No. Pair it with an 8-ohm speaker rated 3 watt or better that fits your shell. Which prime movers do I get?All 9 listed above, selectable in the app or via CV 123. You are not locked to one engine sound — pick whichever matches your prototype. EMD or EMD-2 — which do I want?This is the EMD set: the common 567, 645 and 710 prime movers. The separate EMD-2 set carries a second group of less-common variants with specific cylinder counts. Check your locomotive’s prime mover against the list above before ordering. Will it fit my locomotive?This one measures 69 x 30.5 x 14mm and connects by screw terminal blocks (no soldering). Check the space in your shell against that footprint before ordering — other Blunami versions use different connectors and sizes.
