Hi,
Now thet the CS2 has de function mapping you can edit the sounds that a MFX sound loco has. I have also found that many of the actual locos have additional sounds not activated. For example my 37961 Mallet have four additional sounds like compressed air, oil pupms, steam and some other sounds. In the case of my VT 8.5 there is an additionl air compressor that can be activated. I need to review all my MFX sound locos to see what other souds I can reach. Have any of you found this?

Best regards!
Eduardo

With some locos you will find that function keys activate two function outputs at the same time. You can assign individual keys for those functions.
Examples: the latest Schienenzeppelin switches motor and motor sound with one key - I separated those so I can hear the starter sound while the propeller isn't running yet.
With the SVT 04.5 interior lights and cab lights are switched together, but I assigned different keys.

All mfx decoders support "ABV off" and "shunting mode". Märklin doesn't assign a function key for "shunting mode", but you can do this if you like.

Back to topic: some "hidden" sounds are part e.g. of the starter sequence, some sounds (e.g. bell) are not prototypically correct for some models (e.g. BR 44).

A list of hidden sounds on Stummi's Forum:

The text is German, but you can read the ref. numbers of the locos and the numbers of the sound slots - so try the sounds and hear for yourself ...

...I think Marklin wants to make their website fully functionnal with plenty of sound files before offering us some information about sounds through articles on Marklin magazin...
