Quoted from PinMonk:

If it's giving you shots for one song and playing the music of a different song, that's definitely a bug that should not happen. We did it accidentally a number of times before working out how it was happening so it was reproducible. If you spend 10 minutes or less doing what I describe, it can be done on yours, too - reliably.

It's a bug. You have a switch in the shooter lane. Once you plunge the ball that switch opens......which should lock in song selection and shots regardless if you hit a switch on the play field or not.

Quoted from thundergod76:

Ahh I completely forgot about the shooter lane switch.

But that's also assuming the code is written that way and not for the first switch hit. Seems that would be standard code common on music pins for song based modes

Quoted from thundergod76:

If the shooter lane switch locked in songs how would you be able to change them?

When the ball is in the shooter lane it closes the switch allowing song selection....as soon as you plunge the ball. The switch opens....so the game knows the ball has been plunged and song is selected.

Quoted from PinMonk:

The game knows what was selected at that point, but the ability to change clearly isn't locked out until the first playfield switch hit, which has to be a mistake/oversight. I can't imagine they're okay with playing one song mode while hearing a different song.

You are correct.....it sounds like a bug for sure

I just checked this tonight and it is a bug for sure. I soft plunged and pushed the right flipper and was able to change the song. But the song mode dos not changed. I had Detroit Rock City playing but the mode was for Shout it out loud.

I tried this on Metallica and once you plunge you cannot change the song......

What's the best way to report this to Stern?

Thanks for sharing.

I am sure they will get right on that!!!

Kiss is a great example of how code can make or break a game. Looking forward to the next update....hopefully we get one soon.
