    Hey guys, so I’m restoring a Bally Vector. I’ve gone through the boards and have the machine functioning pretty well, I’m planning on repinning everything and replacing all the connectors. But right now I have all my sound but NO music. I’ve replaced the capacitors and sound pots on the S/T board. Any ideas? Does anyone know where I can get the AY3-8912 vector music chip if I need?

    probably your settings are turned off for background sound. Check the manual but I think the sounds are selected by the test switch in the coin door( # 18 should be set to 03).

    I’m getting the correct “game over” sound effect which my manual shows I should be getting in the test function. I have every single sound effect and voice speech which in vector is like 50 different quotes, but NO music

    Oh thank you! I got it now sorry! I can see now why someone might turn this music off!! Not the best...

    Background music is better than no music. I tend to tune out music as I play any games.

    I’ve already gotten used to the music! It just adds a lot to the gameplay! Having fun now!
