    My Creature from the Black Lagoon, only in multiball at certain spots, has the sound jump really loud on certain sounds/callouts, then drops back down to normal. I swapped in my sound board from Addams Family and it still does it. Next step? Burn new sound ROMs? Or something else? Could a power drop caused by the Creature motor and light coming on make sounds get louder?

    Try also swapping the ribbon cables with Addams.

    Do your sound ROMs have a version marked on them? I think L-1 is the latest.

    They have no labels, so I'm thinking it couldn't hurt to burn new roms. Swapping the cable is a good tip, thanks!

    Push any seated chips in on the Mpu not just the sound board. I had this issue on my T2. Along with a display garbled issue on some text. A Chip had vibrated a bit loose. Pushing them in fixed it.
