dendoc Posted July 22, 2015 Report Share Posted July 22, 2015 I'm in the process of uploading my Dr Who remix. London Symphony Orchestra playing the origianl TV theme, and a techno mix during ball lock and multiball. I've kept the original end of ball themes as these are hard to duplicate, but the game music sounds great. Had to zip the files, but I'll have to see if they ended up in the right folders. I've sorted how to use the pinsound card and USB, now have sort out this sharing thing! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dendoc Posted August 23, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 23, 2015 uploaded a demo game play of my machine with this mix Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HanSolo_911 Posted September 5, 2015 Report Share Posted September 5, 2015 Hi I downloaded your mix from this site but the music sub folders are empty. Did you forget to put in the orchestral music or did I miss something ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dendoc Posted November 17, 2015 Author Report Share Posted November 17, 2015 Sorry, I'll try another upload. Anyone else got it working? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pinballshark Posted November 17, 2015 Report Share Posted November 17, 2015 I tried it yesterday and got the same result. The music is missing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dendoc Posted November 22, 2015 Author Report Share Posted November 22, 2015 Just uploaded another version. Had the music files as .wav, and now converted them to .ogg so hopefully that'll sort it out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doctor Grisou Posted November 30, 2015 Report Share Posted November 30, 2015 I cannot see any music files in the music folder. Other folders are fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pinballs Posted December 12, 2015 Report Share Posted December 12, 2015 A definite improvement as the music folders are now populated, and a number of them with new (not 'legacy') music. I'll try this out, and many thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dendoc Posted January 7, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 7, 2016 Did that nice "tardis" upload suddenly disappear? I managed to download it, and it sounds great, but can't see it now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pinballshark Posted January 12, 2016 Report Share Posted January 12, 2016 Doctorin' the Tardis? It's back up. I'll have v1.1 done soon. It seems that every time I update it, it goes offline into a queue for approval and it takes them a week to get it online. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diamond2002 Posted January 29, 2016 Report Share Posted January 29, 2016 where did Doctorin the Tardis go? i just got my board and now its gone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jzdziarski Posted March 6, 2018 Report Share Posted March 6, 2018 For some reason doctor in the tardis causes my pinsound to frequently restart (replay the boot sound) or to cut out and go to "checking usb"; the original orchestration doesn't seem to do this. Very strange. Disco works OK as well. I don't know what would cause that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hazzard Posted March 6, 2018 Report Share Posted March 6, 2018 Hmm.. Is it a louder mix with more bass information? That pulls more current from your power supply, wich in turn cant power the pinsound board and resets.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jzdziarski Posted March 6, 2018 Report Share Posted March 6, 2018 The voltages seem to be a pretty steady 4.94v and 25v at the fuse. I've tried it with the sub disconnected, or with the volume turned almost off, and it still behaves the same. It's strange, as just booting up, the pinsound plays the startup chime, then interrupts it, and plays it a second time... then the first time I hit start, or even just press the volume button, the chime plays yet again... I've swapped it for another pinsound board and they both consistently behave this way. I am wondering if the recommend USB might be too slow. I've tried swapping it with a different of the same type - both are quite hot when I pull them out. I'm wondering if there's too much data in the sound package, and its causing the USB to malfunction, leading to a crash. I ordered a Samsung 150MB/s, which is a bit faster, to see if that has any affect. It will do an hour long conversion just fine, with no resets or anything... as soon as it tries to play the Doctor in the Tardis though, kaboom.

Hazzard Posted March 6, 2018 Report Share Posted March 6, 2018 Really strange! Nothing out of the ordinary with the filestructure? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jzdziarski Posted March 6, 2018 Report Share Posted March 6, 2018 file system looks fine, i've formatted and done surface scans, nothing wrong with either usb stick. I've tried both using pinsound studio and letting the card convert it... same result. driving me nucking futs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jzdziarski Posted March 7, 2018 Report Share Posted March 7, 2018 Hmm well today it seems to be doing it with any sound package i use, so at this point i'm out of ideas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hazzard Posted March 7, 2018 Report Share Posted March 7, 2018 I believe you are heading for a return/repair...? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jzdziarski Posted March 8, 2018 Report Share Posted March 8, 2018 So it looks like my board did slowly die a painful death, but there's also something going on here. My new pinsound plus just arrived and was doing the same restart loop when using Doctor in the Tardis. It seems perfectly fine with the "stock" audio package. Nicolas mentioned something about finding a bug related to my issues, and plans to push a firmware fix out for it soon... but I have no idea what's causing it or why it would affect me and noone else. I've swapped a complete set of boards out today, between a complete PinLED system and the original WPC boards... both sets of boards give me the issues with the pinsound. Currently running the stock sound package I guess until the fix is out... fingers crossed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jwilling Posted March 19, 2018 Report Share Posted March 19, 2018 Well, you are not alone. Just installed a new PinSound+ in my Doctor Who and am seeing the same issue with some of the mixes. Actually deleted the 'Doctorin' The Tardis' mix after reading this, but that did not actually resolve the problem. If I leave a mix selected, it appears to behave but if I try to select a different mix (running the volume to zero) it will not change the selected mix and if I try it again it triggers the 'scanning USB' message. I seem to be 'stuck' on the "modern" mix at the moment. Don't suspect USB drive speed as this is a USB 3.0 device that came with the kit. I have noticed that if I take the USB drive to my PC following the 'scanning USB' prompt it will indicate that there is an error on the drive and offer to scan/repair it (Windows 10), but if I let it do so it reports "no error found" following the scan. Not sure what's up with that. Also seems that levels on the voice callouts in the mix seem quite low compared to the music tracks. Trying to see if I can level that out through the equalizer settings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
electr0naut Posted April 29, 2018 Report Share Posted April 29, 2018 Same problem here. The original mix works fine with my newly installed Pinsound+. Unfortunately, the “modern” and “doctor in the tardis” mixes cause the board to enter a scanning USB deadend loop despite a successful upload. I also noted that the USB drive gets very hot, which is unexpected. Is there an update on a possible firmware fix? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
electr0naut Posted June 23, 2018 Report Share Posted June 23, 2018 Good news! After uploading the recent Pinsound+ firmware version v183 (released in May 2018), the custom mixes now work on my Dr. Who. A big thanks to Nicolas and all mix masters!

Whovian Posted February 4, 2021 Report Share Posted February 4, 2021 Just ordered a Pinsound + for my Doctor Who and some FF speakers and stereo wires. I was able to download the original from Pinsound and save it to a thumb drive. Next is some of these custom mixes, I have seen on Youtube and Pinside. Thanks to who ever did the tutorial on youtube. I am following every step, so far. My board just left France and is heading to Washington DC. EXTERMINATE!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
