Superbass essentially is an upgraded speaker system found on some legacy diesels; these speakers provided deeper bass notes to better capture the throb and roar of diesel engines.
Sound masking is a new feature found in Legacy 1.5 and on newer Legacy diesels. Essentially masking enables you to select which locomotive in the lash-up generates the horn and cab/tower chatter sounds.

Thx, John. Does the instruction book 'advertise' these features? My newest is from 2012, and I see no mention of either..........
PhilG-
It does, but only if you have the manual for Legacy version 1.5 (or higher). If your legacy firmware is older than 1.5, you can update it for free from Lionel's website.

I was referring to the engine manual, not the LEGACY manual. But, my LEGACY manual [hard copy, from Lionel] is version 1.3. I shall try to download 1.5 or higher. Thanx.
John: Their website discusses v1.2 & v1.3 ONLY!! I'll call them tomorrow.
The 1.5 manual is up on the Lionel site. Go to the following site: Lionel Legacy

Thank you, GRJ! I got it.
Just got my new legacy 990 a couple of days ago (an upgrade from tmcc). I have been taking the manual to work and reading it on my breaks. I've loaded some engines and started to get the feel of how to navigate the remote. I would like to program a lashup, but I have a couple of questions. Once a lashup is created, how do I re-address it? Is it the head engine ID# ? Or does the lashup have its own address? Also if you shut down for the night, will the lashup still be in the system? Or do you have to re-program it each time you turn the lagecy on/off? Any info will help!
Thanks guys!
The MU (lash-up) is remembered until you overwrite it or clear it. You use the TR softkey to address it.
