Check your decoder manual for the volume CV, on my latest LGB/Marklin loco it's CV 63. Set it to any value between 1 and 255 to suit, 255 being the loudest.
Does the loco have a sound pot? They are an addition to Massoth decoders and are sometimes fitted but not always visible.
thank you for your reply my locos were done by G R S i never got any booklets when i got locos back.
HI John no book to go with loco sound, so i dont know . its the 08 shunter out in the garden sound is very quite . thank you

I presume your system permits you to read and write CVs.
Read this link to identify your decoder regardless of its maker. Identification of the decoder – Massoth Elektronik GmbH.
Hopefully you can then download the appropriate instructions and adjust the volume. If you still have problems but know the details of your decoder you should be able to get further advice on here.

I agree, it's time you tried reading the CVs and know exactly what is going on.

You don't say which chips you have, but from the current Massoth configuration manual (Firmware v 4.0) (covering XLS, XLS-M1, XLS-Onboard, LS, S and S-PluG):
CV200 - Valid values are 1...63 or 255 - 1 is low, 63 is loud and 255 uses the value from volume control inputs on the decoder.
So I would try setting cv 200 to 63, which should give the loco it's maximum value if it has a Massoth Sound decoder.

The sound volume pot is not included with the Massoth decoder so likely if you did not specify one it would not have been fitted. Craig’s advice is sound if you can remember how to update a CV. Now that I do not have Barney if you still have problems happy to jump on a train to come and give you some reminders.
