VIP bank adds time to modes, adds a ball in multiball. Add-a-ball takes priority, so complete a 2nd time to add time to running modes.
Short plunge and pick off Rock Star targets without activating ball save. Then hit records shot for super skill shot.
Guitar targets lights combos. Hit ramps and orbits to make a 5-way combo. Pops and Records will end combo, but can be the 5th shot.
Stack modes into Album or Rock Star MB to maximize points. Records has to be started first, then Licks, and then the MB.
Collect records to light records multiball. Records multiball is Total Annihilation, with the records shot being the big payoff shot.
In competition/tourney mode, records always appear in same order: Mixed Emotions, Happy, Love is Strong, then It's All About Rock 'n Roll.
Happy and It's All About records modes allow you to permanently light records on all shots for the entirety of the mode (big points).
Light all center playfield inserts to light Encore mini-wizard mode on the records shot. Hit all shots twice, then the super, for points.
5-way combo lights "Super Combos" on the center ramp. Pummel that center ramp, and try to add time halfway through; 2X ramp = huge points.
On the LE, the secondary buttons control outlane and middle posts. They are unlimited and stay up for a while. Abuse them after every shot.
