hi there,

thanks a lot for your guide!

Just got a pinsound for my radical.
Tried putting some musics here and there without cropping => wasn't very good :-p which is why I looked and found your guide.

I do face some issues:
- have put the original mix on the USB stick => I have sounds and music working at random. Same in test mode.
- no PSREC file
- on the root of the USB stick, no config.ini, no playback folder...

Any idea?

Radical is an awesome game with a crappy music, so wanted to change that thanks to the board; but right now I don't understand why I only have some random stuff poping up. When I put back the original board it works perfectly.
Already have a pinsound in my LOTR and it works just fine.

aaah ok

So how can I know what length should be each stuff? :-s
Should have the latest firmware as only downloaded a few days ago.

For the config.ini, what should it include?

Only hoping I did not buy an expensive board for a specific purpose that can be reached anymore.. Bought the deported headset plug and speakers as wel....

and that means my question was stupid thanks, did not even think of it.

Updated the pinsound+ firmware, still have random sounds/music not playing with the original orchestration from pinsound on my Radical

so:
1) works perfectly with the OEM board
2) the files are present and playing fine on my computer
3) nope, it's random, some sounds or music will play and then not, even during the same game

will try to get hold of Nicolas to shed some light on this

Yep, they do.

I'm at 5.03 V.
12V is a bit low though but nothing that causes issues ingame.

hmm not really possible I run a club remember, all machines are tightly fit; moving one to another spot is a freaking nightmare
and anyway they end up on the same main line.

When I did the tests the Radical was the only powered machine.
And the lines where made by a professional electrician specifically to distribute power to the machines.

Will try but I would be extremely suprised to see any change.

For the Karr board, have some spares but ain't those for WPC? Where should I plug them on a Sys 11?

Issue solved with the Help of Nicolas from pinsound.
It was actually extremely simple, the lack of config.ini file stating to use the system11 was the cause.

now having a mix creation question:

All musics in Radical are made with loops of 1'59" duration.

Must I put the exact same length?
Or is it ok if I have longer musics as they are looping? (no speaking of vfy etc, only the musics)

For some of them it is a mere 3 secs of different start then back to the main theme, but still, the music total length is 1'59"

Mix done and working, only needing a few small adjustments.

Many thanks to Mr_Tantrum for this guide and help!

Can't do that sorry, specifically made it for myself, with my musics
