Using PinSound to add alternate soundtrack remixes.


Most are aware of Stern SAM soundtrack remixes that were done using Pinball Browser – links to some patches and/or patched game code here: http://vpuniverse.com/forums/forums/topic/2380-list-of-vpm-rom-remixes-and-mods

But support for PinSound-based alternate soundtracks has been included in the last two releases and I very rarely see anyone mentioning it. It’s virtually untapped territory for updating/upgrading existing tables. There is currently support for Data East, Williams System 11C, WPC, and Whitestar. It’s very easy to add the feature. Download Windows version of PinSound Studio here: https://www.pinsound.org/pinsound-studio/

Like every other pinball-related program, this should be run as admin. There is online support to download alternate soundtracks directly through the program. Offline, you can go to the community website and download zip files for tables. The program allows you to import from zip. http://pinsound-community.org Wait for the program to extract and process the sound files from the zip. When the program is ready, select the Visual Pinball tab on the left hand side of the window. Type in the PinMAME rom set that you want to associate with the sound package that you imported.

Now, in the VPinMAME game settings for the rom.

Set the value of Sound Mode to 2.  That’s it!
