Is there a reason you always seem to pick on a negative side of something before you have bought it?

As you are American would you complain if DTG used the same sounds in the Amtrak F40PH-2, the Metra F40PH and the NJ Transit F40PH?
They are the same loco so should sound the same.
And the same applies with the Class 24 & Class 25 - same engine inside.
I won't disagree on the merits of the sound used in the Class 24 or 25 but I would expect them to sound the same.

No need to; it's by DTG so must be wrong....

Haven't we been here many times before?
Actually Peter, we may be doing tycoon a disservice as the words he used (despite jimmy's understanding of them) didn't make reference to the quality of the sounds, just that they were the same as those of the class 25. As you've rightly pointed out though, they would predominantly sound the same, both locos using the same engine.

Am I the only one here who is actually happy that there are BR Blue loco's being released for the sim that aren't a 55, 47, 37 or 31?

No, I'm really please with this loco from what I saw on the twitch preview and I can live with a poor sound, if it has such a thing, set in hope of an AP solution

Juanillo99, unless I've missed something, AP don't currently have a Sulzer Type 2 Sound Pack. The post on Facebook you are referring to relates to updates for existing packs.

The original sulzer pack was withdrawn many moons ago, long before the pro packs appeared. IIRC when they tried to record a 25 recently there was an issue with the sounds, not sure if they have managed to re-record. So a pack would seem to be planned again at some point.

Got it, had a couple of runs and I love it.
Great job DTG, top notch once again. Goes great with the BR Blue pack.
I love the sounds. Reminds me of when I was a young lad driving the front tip dump trucks. thump thump thumper thump..............

Serious question Deano; not trying to score points off those who feel the sounds are inaccurate or start/continue an argument about their accuracy, but in your eyes (ears?) do the class 24/25 sounds
represent reasonably what you can remember of the real things?
