Also, since bass is very non-directional, hooking one up to a powered sub-woofer could be really cool.
Am I the only one that doesn't get the giggles for sound? It seems very annoying and I nothing more irritating while watching youtube vid's of layouts full of random horn blowing.
No, you're not alone. I must have a dozen reasons I dislike... no, hate MRR sound simulations, either in situ or environmental. But I'll spare the group my rants.

Very cool! If there was a way to install remote speakers that could individually trigger when the train moves past them so the sound at least sort of follows the train, I would really be interested.
I think this is cool and will be very popular, and I applaud Kato for building it.Notice that the chuff sound is timed to the engine's actual speed, not the throttle position, which implies thatit must be using some sort of back EMF to know how fast the motor is actually turning. That will fall apartif you have multiple engines in a lash-up. Notice they don't demo it in the video for two engines at the same time.I still think this is preferable to tying the sound to the throttle position. The sound won't be synchronized to steam pistons, but I don't think people really notice or care most of the time.
