Description
SurroundTraxx is a major breakthrough in sound system for model trains! For the first time, a sound system has been designed with multiple trains in mind. SurroundTraxx gives you the realism of high-fidelity sound moving with the train as it travels about the layout without installing speakers onboard the engine.
SurroundTraxx begins with a multiplicity of audio speakers that are strategically placed in hidden locations around the layout. Using the latest Digital Signal Processing (DSP) technology and advanced block detection techniques, SurroundTraxx faithfully reproduces the sounds made by each train on the layout and directs the sound to the speaker closest to the train's location. As a train moves along its route, SurroundTraxx makes continuous adjustments to the sound level of each speaker so that the sound appears to follow the train around the layout.
SurroundTraxx does not simply switch the sound from speaker to speaker but uses an intelligent cross fade algorithm that factors in train speed, direction, and distance between speakers. The sound makes a smooth transition as your train travels from one sound zone to the next without abrupt pops or thumps.
- Sounds for a wide variety of both Steam and Diesel locomotives
- No onboard speakers are necessary!
-
Six independent sound channels to reproduce the sounds of up to six different locomotives simultaneously.
Getting Started is Simple
Simple layouts can use SurroundTraxx with one speaker as an undertable sound system and enjoy multiple locomotive sounds. This requires no additional hardware other than a speaker and will get you up and running in no time!
To take full advantage of SurroundTraxx' unique capabilities, and all available sound zones, each system requires at least one BDL-168 and two RX-4's, available from Digitrax, to be installed into the layout. Each train must also be equipped with at least one transponder or transponding decoder for the full roaming speaker effect. Each SurroundTraxx system supports up to six blocks and six speakers, but multiple SurroundTraxx systems can be linked together for larger layouts.
