Thanks Kevin!
TwinStar:
So, I shared this with a buddy of mine who is a 10 year engineer with BNSF and a fellow modeler. His reaction was that the startup sounds good but the notching doesn't sound right at all. He said it sounds like a locomotive with the reverser centered that was ran through the notches and not one under a load. He shared a video with me of a GEVO under load and accelerating a stack train and you can tell a substantial difference. This sound profile sounds like a big miss and just isn't going to cut it with what is being offered by the competition.

The beta was better. I shared my concern with Tim and he is looking into it. For whatever reason the beta and the final version were markedly different. The beta was for sure recorded from a ES44 under load....it was the only locomotive on the train and went through all 8 notches. I have no idea why the beta and final were different.
I have a video I made of the beta over a year ago somewhere...I'll post it up for comparison. The notching is much better and the "chugging" prime mover is far more pronounced from notch 3-8.
KPack:
Here you go:
The idle/notch 1 in the beta wasn't very good, and far too loud. The new idle is correct. I like the other notches much better in the beta as compared to the final release. Again, no idea why the difference....they should have all come from the same source recording. Bruce can chime in here....I believe he's the one who recorded it.
