Sound and non-sound DCC decoders from SoundTraxx, ESU, Digitrax and Train Control Systems. To pick the right one, match three things to your locomotive: the connection (hardwire, 8-pin, 21-pin or Next18 plug), the motor current it needs, and for sound decoders the prime mover or steam profile. Each product page lists its connection, current rating and sound set. Not sure what fits? Ask us before you order.

Digitrax Digitrax DH127D | Series 7 Mobile Decoder | HO Scale
The Digitrax DH127D is a Series 7 mobile decoder for HO scale, supplied with a bare 9-pin harness socket rather than a plug. That makes it the one to reach for on hard-wired installs and older locomotives with no DCC socket: you pick the harness that suits the job, or solder directly. One amp continuous with two amps peak handles any normal HO motor. Building a DCC fleet? Browse our DCC Decoders, DCC Speakers, and DCC Accessories. Features 1.0 amp continuous, 2.0 amps peak - ample for single-motor HO diesels and steam. Digitrax 9-pin harness socket so you choose the harness: add a DHWHPS or DHWH to suit the locomotive, or hard-wire it. 2 FX7 function outputs at 200mA for directional headlights plus effects like Mars light, ditch lights, rotary beacon and flicker. Series 7 platform with back-EMF speed stabilisation for slow, steady switching moves. Programs on any NMRA DCC system and runs on any DCC layout - a Digitrax command station is not required. More Information Brand Digitrax Item Number DH127D Product Type DCC Mobile Decoder Scale HO Motor Current 1.0 A continuous / 2.0 A peak Function Outputs 2 x FX7, 200 mA Connection 9-pin harness socket (no harness fitted) Series Digitrax Series 7 Sound No - motor and function decoder only Condition New FAQ What is the difference between the DH127D, DH127P and DH127PS?Only the harness. The DH127D has a bare 9-pin socket and no harness. The DH127P adds a medium 8-pin plug on about 3.2 in. of wire, and the DH127PS has the same plug on about 1.2 in. of wire for tight installs. The decoder itself is identical. Will it fit my locomotive?It suits hard-wired installs and any HO locomotive where you supply the harness. If your loco has an 8-pin NMRA DCC-ready socket, the DH127P or DH127PS is the easier choice because the plug is already fitted. Does it have sound?No. The DH127D is a motor and function decoder. For sound in HO, look at a Digitrax SDXH series decoder or a SoundTraxx unit, plus a speaker. Do I need a Digitrax command station to use it?No. It is a standard NMRA DCC decoder and will run and program on any DCC system.

SoundTraxx SoundTraxx 829100 | Tsunami SoundCar Digital Sound Decoder
The SoundTraxx 829100 is the Tsunami SoundCar — a 16-bit digital sound decoder built for rolling stock rather than locomotives. It has no motor drive at all; it exists to give your cabooses, passenger cars, reefers and stock cars their own sound and lighting. Because the sound comes from the train instead of the engine, you get running sound that moves down the consist: clickety-clack over the rail joints, flange squeal on curves, brake cylinders and coupler clank. SoundTraxx suggests roughly one SoundCar per third or fourth car rather than one in every car. Features 11 air horns and whistles: Nathan K5LA, K5LA Amtrak, K3L, K3LA and P3; Wabco AA2 and E2; Leslie S2B; Hancock air whistle; and two caboose whistles for shoving-platform work 5 bells: modern cast, bronze cast, cast, electronic and gong Clickety-clack configurable for 2-, 4- and 6-axle cars, plus flat spots, flange squeal and brake squeal Full brake system: independent and train brakes, brake cylinders, retainer bleed-off, train line charge, hand brake tie-down and untie, and an emergency “big hole” valve on E-stop Couplers: clank, pin drop and release with glad-hand separation Generators that behave correctly per car type — intermittent for a reefer, constant for a passenger car BeastBanter livestock: cattle or sheep, with a “spook the livestock” function for stock cars 4 lighting outputs with Hyperlight effects including FRED, firebox and stove flicker, and interior/exterior lighting CurrentKeeper ready — quick-plug socket for the SoundTraxx 810140 CurrentKeeper More Information Item Number: SoundTraxx 829100 Model: Tsunami SoundCar Built For: Rolling stock — cabooses, passenger cars, cab cars, reefers, stock cars Scale: N through G scale Decoder Size: 47 x 14 x 8.5mm Connection: Universal-style board with bare, NMRA colour-coded wires Motor Drive: None — this decoder does not drive a motor Current Draw: 15 – 25mA at 14V Function Outputs: 4 (100mA each) Audio Amplifier: 8-Ohm speaker required (not included) Sound Resolution: 16-bit Functions: F0 – F12 Shop the full SoundTraxx range, compare every DCC decoder we stock, browse DCC speakers, or find install parts in DCC wiring. Add a SoundTraxx 810140 CurrentKeeper to keep sound alive over dirty track. FAQ Does this go in a locomotive?No. The SoundCar has no motor drive — it is made for the cars behind the engine. Put a Tsunami2, Blunami or Econami in the locomotive and a SoundCar in the train. Do I need one in every car?No. SoundTraxx recommends about one per third or fourth car. The effect is a train that sounds alive along its length, not a row of identical speakers. Which cars is it for?All rolling stock. Cabooses, passenger and cab cars, reefers and stock cars. The generator behaves differently by car type and the clickety-clack is set by axle count, so it can be tuned per car. Is it a Tsunami2?No. It is the Tsunami SoundCar — 16-bit sound, but its own product built for rolling stock, not a Tsunami2 variant. Is a speaker included?No. Use any 8-ohm speaker that fits the car.

ESU LLC ESU 58429 | LokSound 5 Sound and DCC Control Decoder - 21MTC NEM6660 Harness Plug - 30 x 15.5mm | HO & O Scale
By default, this decoder does not come with a pre-programmed Sound Profile. Nevertheless, we provide complimentary Sound File programming for all ESU decoders. Please be aware that opting for Sound File Programming in your order might result in a shipment delay of 1 to 2 business days. Visit this link to preview ESU Sounds 21MTC NEM6660 Harness Plug, 30 x 15.5mm Version The LokSound 5 is the most important member of the LokSound family. Due to the combination of the digital decoder and the sound module on one circuit board we achieve the smallest possible dimensions of 30 mm x 15.5 mm. Therefore it fits into almost any H0 or 0 gauge locomotive. LokSound 5 decoders are available with all popular interface types and are supplied with a sugar cube speaker (11 mm x 15 mm) and a sound enclosure. The LokSound 5 DCC is made for the North American and Australian markets. It is a pure DCC Decoder, which supports RailComPlus and can also be used on DC layouts. Please note the LokSound 5 DCC decoder does not come with a speaker. Operating modes Like all products of the LokSound family the LokSound 5 is a true multi protocol decoder. It supports DCC as well as Motorola®, Selectrix® and M4. Of course it supports 14 through to 128 speed steps as well as 2 and 4 digit addresses in DCC format and up to 32 functions. Thanks to RailComPlus® the decoders register themselves fully automatically on suitable command stations. This decoder supports all DCC programming modes and thanks to RailCom® you may read out the CV values on the main, provided you have a command station supporting RailCom®. There are utility registers for command stations that only facilitate programming of CVs ranging from 1 to 255. Motorola® users benefit from up to 28 speed steps for 255 addresses. Three additional Motorola® addresses facilitate triggering of 16 functions. An integral programming mode even allows programming with the good old Central Unit 6021. The M4 protocol supports the automatic registration on mfx® compatible central units. The LokSound 5 decoder supports the Märklin® braking sections just as well as the ZIMO® HLU braking commands or the Lenz® ABC system. Braking with DCC brake generators or with DC is also possible. Furthermore the locomotive with a LokSound will come to a halt when a Selectrix® braking diode is switched into the circuit. The ABC push-pull feature enables the automatic commuting between two stations. The LokSound 5 decoder is also suitable for analogue DC and AC (!) layouts. Sound The LokSound 5 decoder can reproduce up to 10 channels simultaneously. Each channel offers up to 16 Bit / 31250 kHz and thus we have finally achieved hi-fi sound quality on your layout. For all practical purposes one cannot detect any difference to the original. A class D audio power amplifier with up to 3W output power feeds the speakers with a permitted impedance of 4 – 32 Ohms. The huge 128 MBit sound memory assures sufficient storage capacity. The volume of all individual sound fragments may be adjusted separately. The outstandingly flexible sound engine without a rigid flow chart facilitates a prototypical simulation of all conceivable rail vehicles. Three separately adjustable braking functions and two alternative load scenarios provide you with maximum control of your vehicles. Functions We are quite aware that you want your locomotives to be as realistic as possible. Therefore we have packed many function outputs into it. Subject to the type of interface every LokSound 5 has at least 10 amplified outputs. The decoders with PluX22 or 21MTC interface have an additional 4 outputs for controlling servos or as logic outputs. Of course, all important lighting functions are supported. The brightness of each output may be adjusted separately. The decoder supports the automatic push and pull movements – known as the coupler waltz - required for reliable operation of digital couplers such as the ones by ROCO® and Krois® as well as Telex® couplers. Motor control Motor control of the LokSound 5 has been further improved. A variable PWM pulse frequency ranging from 10 kHz to 50 kHz assures perfect silent operation, particularly for coreless motors. Thus the typical hum is a thing of the past. Load control can now be adjusted with up to 10 separate CVs and thus will manage even the most difficult cases. The unique “Auto Tune” function facilitates the automatic calibration of the decoder to perfectly match the motor. The LokSound 5 decoder supplies up to 1.5A motor current, which is quite sufficient even for older motor types. LokSound 5 DCC The LokSound 5 DCC is made for the North American and Australian markets. It is a pure DCC Decoder, which supports RailComPlus and can also be used on DC layouts.

SoundTraxx SoundTraxx 885625 | BLU-4408 Blunami EMD-2 Diesel Sound Decoder | Multi Scale
The SoundTraxx 885625 is a BLU-4408 Blunami digital sound decoder with the EMD-2 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 8 EMD-2 prime movers: EMD 567 12-cylinder (no transition), EMD 567C 16-cylinder non-turbo, EMD 645E 12-cylinder non-turbo, EMD 645E 12-cylinder turbo, EMD 645F 16-cylinder turbo, EMD 645E 20-cylinder turbo, EMD 710G 12-cylinder, EMD 710G 16-cylinder 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 885625 Model: BLU-4408 Blunami Sound Set: EMD-2 Diesel Scale: S, O and Large Scale Decoder Size: 69 x 30.5 x 14mm Connection: Screw terminal blocks (no soldering) Max.

Features 8-pin NMRA medium plug fitted on roughly 3.2 in. of harness - fits the great majority of DCC-ready HO locomotives with no soldering. 1.0 amp continuous, 2.0 amps peak - ample for single-motor HO diesels and steam. 2 FX7 function outputs at 200mA for directional headlights plus effects such as Mars light, ditch lights, rotary beacon and flicker. Series 7 platform with back-EMF speed stabilisation, so slow switching moves stay smooth and controlled. Longer harness than the DH127PS - easier routing, at the cost of more wire to tuck away in a tight shell.

Series Digitrax Series 7 Sound No - motor and function decoder only Condition New FAQ DH127P or DH127PS - which one do I want?Same decoder, different harness length. The DH127P has about 3.2 in. of wire, which is easier to route in a roomy diesel hood. The DH127PS has about 1.2 in., which is the better choice when the socket sits right where the decoder has to go. Will it fit my locomotive?If the loco is advertised as DCC-ready with an 8-pin NMRA socket, yes. Pull the dummy plug out of the socket, keep it somewhere safe, and plug the decoder in with pin 1 lined up to the marked corner. Does it have sound?No. This is a motor and function decoder. For sound in HO, look at a Digitrax SDXH series decoder or a SoundTraxx unit, plus a speaker. Do I need a Digitrax command station?No. It is a standard NMRA DCC decoder and will run and program on any DCC system.

ESU LLC ESU 58420 | LokSound 5 Sound and DCC Control Decoder - 8-Pin NEM652 Harness Plug - 30 x 15.5mm | HO & O Scale
By default, this decoder does not come with a pre-programmed Sound Profile. Nevertheless, we provide complimentary Sound File programming for all ESU decoders. Please be aware that opting for Sound File Programming in your order might result in a shipment delay of 1 to 2 business days. Visit this link to preview ESU Sounds 8-Pin NEM652 Harness Plug, 30 x 15.5mm Version The LokSound 5 is the most important member of the LokSound family. Due to the combination of the digital decoder and the sound module on one circuit board we achieve the smallest possible dimensions of 30 mm x 15.5 mm. Therefore it fits into almost any H0 or 0 gauge locomotive. LokSound 5 decoders are available with all popular interface types and are supplied with a sugar cube speaker (11 mm x 15 mm) and a sound enclosure. The LokSound 5 DCC is made for the North American and Australian markets. It is a pure DCC Decoder, which supports RailComPlus and can also be used on DC layouts. Please note the LokSound 5 DCC decoder does not come with a speaker. Operating modes Like all products of the LokSound family the LokSound 5 is a true multi protocol decoder. It supports DCC as well as Motorola®, Selectrix® and M4. Of course it supports 14 through to 128 speed steps as well as 2 and 4 digit addresses in DCC format and up to 32 functions. Thanks to RailComPlus® the decoders register themselves fully automatically on suitable command stations. This decoder supports all DCC programming modes and thanks to RailCom® you may read out the CV values on the main, provided you have a command station supporting RailCom®. There are utility registers for command stations that only facilitate programming of CVs ranging from 1 to 255. Motorola® users benefit from up to 28 speed steps for 255 addresses. Three additional Motorola® addresses facilitate triggering of 16 functions. An integral programming mode even allows programming with the good old Central Unit 6021. The M4 protocol supports the automatic registration on mfx® compatible central units. The LokSound 5 decoder supports the Märklin® braking sections just as well as the ZIMO® HLU braking commands or the Lenz® ABC system. Braking with DCC brake generators or with DC is also possible. Furthermore the locomotive with a LokSound will come to a halt when a Selectrix® braking diode is switched into the circuit. The ABC push-pull feature enables the automatic commuting between two stations. The LokSound 5 decoder is also suitable for analogue DC and AC (!) layouts. Sound The LokSound 5 decoder can reproduce up to 10 channels simultaneously. Each channel offers up to 16 Bit / 31250 kHz and thus we have finally achieved hi-fi sound quality on your layout. For all practical purposes one cannot detect any difference to the original. A class D audio power amplifier with up to 3W output power feeds the speakers with a permitted impedance of 4 – 32 Ohms. The huge 128 MBit sound memory assures sufficient storage capacity. The volume of all individual sound fragments may be adjusted separately. The outstandingly flexible sound engine without a rigid flow chart facilitates a prototypical simulation of all conceivable rail vehicles. Three separately adjustable braking functions and two alternative load scenarios provide you with maximum control of your vehicles. Functions We are quite aware that you want your locomotives to be as realistic as possible. Therefore we have packed many function outputs into it. Subject to the type of interface every LokSound 5 has at least 10 amplified outputs. The decoders with PluX22 or 21MTC interface have an additional 4 outputs for controlling servos or as logic outputs. Of course, all important lighting functions are supported. The brightness of each output may be adjusted separately. The decoder supports the automatic push and pull movements – known as the coupler waltz - required for reliable operation of digital couplers such as the ones by ROCO® and Krois® as well as Telex® couplers. Motor control Motor control of the LokSound 5 has been further improved. A variable PWM pulse frequency ranging from 10 kHz to 50 kHz assures perfect silent operation, particularly for coreless motors. Thus the typical hum is a thing of the past. Load control can now be adjusted with up to 10 separate CVs and thus will manage even the most difficult cases. The unique “Auto Tune” function facilitates the automatic calibration of the decoder to perfectly match the motor. The LokSound 5 decoder supplies up to 1.5A motor current, which is quite sufficient even for older motor types. LokSound 5 DCC The LokSound 5 DCC is made for the North American and Australian markets. It is a pure DCC Decoder, which supports RailComPlus and can also be used on DC layouts.
