Before you change any of the volume control CVs, please make
sure that the CV 32 is set to 1! As explained earlier, CV 32 is used
128
as an index selection register to distinguish between the real func-
128
tion of CV 257 – 512.
128
When you adjust the volume levels, please keep in mind that you
should not exceed the maximum mixer levels to avoid a condition
128
called "clipping" which occurs when the sum of two or more sig-
nals exceeds the capacity of the output channel.
128
Clipping can be identified by clicking or popping sounds. To avoid
128
this situation, consider which sounds are likely to be played at the
128
same time and take care that their corresponding volume levels
are not set too high.

13.2. Prime mover startup delay

128
Usually, when the LokSound V4.0 sound is idling and you turn up
128
the throttle, the locomotives begins to move only after the Diesel
128
engine has reached notch 1. A steam loco will even release its
128
brakes first and fill the cylinders. Although this behavior is very
prototypically, one might not like it because it causes some delay.
128
You can disable this startup delay by simply deleting bit 3 of CV
128
124. This will cause the LokSound V4.0 decoder to immediately
128
start moving when the throttle is turned up. However, the start up
128
sound will not be synchon with the motion anymore.
