Great options I also like the clunk at 0% then maybe squeaks 10-20% I think that would make a great effect
or as you said assign to the trigger toggle as well then it would also clunk later when engaged disengaged.
Also the more I look at all of these systems the more I see what a good choice the TBS is for sound. It has
already been developed to create amazing sounds and super smooth engine transitions. Even on the Elmod
the engine transitions are not nearly as smooth..so this to me is the best of both worlds.

Good idea   Though there would be a nice feeling to flip a toggle for engage transmission and hear it clunk into gear too! Though not
sure if that would be difficult to program.

Didn't think that though properly. If in the engine files then revving before transmission wouldn't sound right. So that sound (or something like it)
triggered with transmission engagement might be really cool. Then you would hear the transmission clunk into gear.

Or even more simple maybe is to just add this on the start of the acel clip on TBS. So ( idle) (Idle + gearshift + acel) (move) (decel) So upon
normal movement the shift sound would auto proceed movement. Then no extra sound slot used.

This could be a fun and simple shift into gear effect. Just assign this sound to a trigger switch then when idling you can play it before
you decide to acel the tank.

Few more breaking sound clips. 5 might be interesting. They can also be used as a turret stop sound as well.
A little note on the dynamic loop feature on the TBS it is nice as can also be used to fade a sound in loop and out.

Quick file of an idea for a stopping sound. From a actual Leopard stopping on a road with some other track noise added.
Not sure how it will actually work.. but may be something to test with.

Minor thoughts regarding the TBS end. The repeat function for a physical on off function like turret or a machine gun via stick or switch I think can be set though the TBS as a loop or dynamic loop set with TCB triggering it "once". Or set to play once "normal" on TBS but repeated/looped via TCB. The squeaking may also be able to be set to play as dynamic looping via TBS or as one sound set to "normal" on TBS and set to "repeat" on TCB. Since I am familiar with the TBS this makes sense to me,  but may very well seem like a bunch of jibberish! Bottom line it will work either way

Luke that is awesome! This is going to be one great board. I am curious as you test this and the random squeaks which
will sound best. More user sounds will be good to free all these new options up! I wonder if a gear engage clunk sound
option working with the nudge might be interesting but hey you are doing all the work I am just thinking of ideas:)

There are quite a few youtube video showing both squeak and shift effects for the Fusion. So no idea if this helped just
getting feedback on what is out there that is working well and some things that are not.

If it is useful... a few of us are curious about the Elmod gear shift. It looks to be fully adjustable including shift points for each gear and
I think able to be turned off. It also won't engage at slower speeds during for instance.. a spin turn. The squeek effect seems to be much better than
what people have been experiencing with their IBU's too. Will drop in a video of it all in action for you to see..which will include gear shifts
and squeeks in motion. The one major downside of the Elmod is the absence of the TBS..which is not only sound programmable but top in sound transitions. My view is if that isn't smooth or perfect then the motion becomes irrelevant. And of all the various features I think gear shift may be lower than anything else for me and especially if not as you said, not done well.

Note from Elmod owner regarding gear shift:
"I will have to get back to you on that. What I have noticed is as you shift forward it's not immediate throttle. Similar to you releasing the clutch in your car or truck. A bit delayed unlike a stock Heng Long that immediately goes forward or reverse.The longer I hold it at part throttle the slower it is to "catch the gear" and lurch forward."

The engine rev to idle idle and especially decel to idle  sound though is not nearly as smooth as on the TBS..very rough transition.
Though the ability to adjust the individual volume is nice (can be done on TBS but as you pointed out it is a slow process to reload the
whole file just to tweak one sound)

This is a video of the Elmod Fusion board somebody posted today. This squeaks, at least in this video, do sound good and as he mentioned -the
sound on applying breaks is nice.


Here's my Elmod fusion board that arrived today
I've yet to fine tune and adjust the board. What's neat is the track squeak sounds very realistic and when you apply the brakes there is a very nice audible squeak it also shifts up and into gear much more testing to follow

I intend to use the recommended Saber or the Scout ESC you guys are working on with my first TCB but is there
any downside at all using the RC version of the Saber?

Looking my current set up over..I think because the old taigen elevation only runs in one direction to set it up via the outboard ports on the TCB that will allow up/down for the barrel.. I think it (recoil and elevation) needs to be re-wired (more simply) as shown in the tutorial video. Then there really is no point in me using A 1 on the TBS for recoil as one plug into the TCB will do that.
