Hi, Nice video! I am now working on making my own 32 inch virtual pinball machine. Is it also possible to connect 1 bass shaker to the sub output of the 7.1 external sound card? Would that have the same effect? Of course connected to his own amp. Thank you in advance for your comment.
This sounds insane and I'm sure it's even more intense in person! I'm happy to see that you've installed the Iron Maiden table on your machine! I'm a huge fan of the band, so I would definitely like to have that table for sure! Great video and keep up the good work!
A Rec Room Masters cabinet!!!! Lol i have the very first new 32inch rec room masters stand up arcade. They are back in business if you ever need help. Hey brother , im a supporter of your channel, great videos, but thats not how you set up ssf 7.1 for VPX or fx3 with dof etc and all the rest. The issue, is you need to hook up your ssf as front and rear , not left and right. Unless you have software for your sound card that allowed you to change the sound outputs to what speakers. But it should be 2.1 front , 1 amplifier with a left and right exciter and 1 bass shaker. Then for your second amplifier it should be left and right rear (exciters near your backglass) Like you said you reallt dont need a second bass shaker or subwoofer just for ssf. So i have the two dayton exciters in the rear. So thats 4 dayton exciters total. 1 large 8inch dayton bass shaker . Running on 2 amplifiers. I didnt hook up the 10inch sub woofer i originally purchased for the second amplifier. My backbox, i am using the same sound system i use in every system i build, its a PC 2.1 system logitech thxII powered 10inch subwoofer. (The reason i didnt install the ssf second sub woofer) To make life easiest, even though my pc has a 7.1 sound card , i always buy the same external sound card that everyone buys off amazon. It all cheap, i have 1 digital out connection from my pc into the external sound card. That sound card has a main output that runs to your backglass speakers and subwoofer (it would be a amplifier if i didnt have a powered subwoofer etc. Then on your sound card you should have a surround and a rear. The surround wire runs into your amplifier that powers your two exciters closest to your backbox. Finally you run a cable from your sound card to your rear amplifier. (Remember your rear is the two exciters you want to mount as close to your flipper buttons as possible, and my large dayton bass shaker . (I put yhe bass shaker on the front amplifer closest to me because the subwoofer that comes with my backbox system is HUGE, and i literally need to keep bass almost turned all the way down. My exterbal soundcard comes with software that shows all my speakers just as if i was standing infront of a pinball table/or tv setup. You then can click on each speaker individually, and it will say what speaker it is . "Such as front left", front right", left surround , right surround. I know that was alot of me writing but i was trying to not make it as confusing as possible. The reason i posted,was i noticed your amplifiers didnt have left and right, i saw treble, bass, subwoofer, and volume. This means your not going to get true 7.1 surround sound . Wjat your actuslly getting right now is basically 4.1. Because the whole point of SSF 7.1 is to hear the ball roll from the back and slowly all the way right into your flipper , and its awesome. The way you have yours set up your not actually getting 7.1 surround force feedback. You are running Stereo output. However, you can fix the issue literally in less then 10 minutes.actuslly because you set it up as left and right. Your speaker wire is long enough to reach the entire length of your cabinet. So you can just choose one amp to be your "front amp" and one to be "rear amp" (rear actually is the amp that powers the exciters where your standing) You just need to unplug 2 plugs, and switch 2 speake wire exciters so that one amplifer is as i said above. You then will have full 7.1SSF sound output. Sorry for the long post brother, ive helped tons of people, my post was just offering my help it wasnt at all meant to offend you. If tou need more help, reach out to me, we just started a Facebook group to go with the youtube if you want to get in contact with me.
Thank you for the great video. Have you had any issue with the bass shaker and the amp you link to? Looks like the bass shaker is rated to 50W and the amp only delivers 40W to the sub.
Nice cabinet! I'm all about realistic physics, so for me the realism won't come in, even with sounds and shaking etc. if the physics doesn't play realistic. All three the tables you showed doesn't have realistic playing physics. If you want recreations that play (and sound) realistic look for tables by VPW (including the brand new Total Nuclear Annihilation ;-) ), Bord, UnclePaulie, Gedankekojotje97, Chokeee, Flupper1 and TastyWasps, to name a few of the main implementers. It makes a world of difference to the experience and flipper tricks work as they should ;-)
sadly I got the same cab and setup. The cab being made of MDF you only get abotu 20% of the feedback. I swear, I tried the same setup on a hardwood cab and it blew my mind. When purchasing a pinball cab always make sure its made of hard wood. SSF works with resonance. and MDF is liek foam so it doesnt vibrate liek hardwood. but to be clear, its better then nothing, you can actually feel the vibrations. But on a hardwood cab its night and day difference.

That is such a sweet set up. I need to come hang out with you and Leaf!

Thanks Dan, that Iron Maiden table is sweet!
Addressable leds would be a nice addition to the setup 😊

Wow what a collection
Fantastic it's sounds great
Glad you like it!
Wish we were neighbors so we could nerd out together
wonderful game collection.
i love it
Thank you 👍
That's soo amazing!😊
Thanks, Mark!

Glad you enjoyed the vid! I have not had any issues with the amp or bass shakers, they both have been working great.
Awesome set up. Thank you.

The VPW tables are some of my favorite, I think I have them all :)
sadly I got the same cab and setup. The cab being made of MDF you only get abotu 20% of the feedback. I swear, I tried the same setup on a hardwood cab and it blew my mind.

But on a hardwood cab its night and day difference.
I wish I had the space for one of these.
what screen size is that? 40" in a standard size cab?
Yup, it's a 40"
Which launcher/front end is that, please?
It's called Pinup Popper
