Controls

• S-RAN+ makes a return in CS RED (reduces the number of fast jackhammers when playing S-RAN). To use it, set the S-RAN option in Free Mode. Then move to a song beginning with "S", and hit Select. Then move to a song beginning with "R", and hit Select. Do the same for "A" and "N", in order. You should hear a sound effect play, letting you know that S-RAN+ has been enabled.
• To view individual note counts for high scores, press and hold Select while the options menu is up in Free Mode.
• To display the ingame status bars (showing your EX score at a given time of the song and comparing it to your record and to your rival's), press Start to bring the play options on the music menu, highlight the bottom options, then hold a white key and move the turntable to choose between rivals or no bar display.
• If playing with ORIGINAL display instead of ARCADE STYLE display: tapping Select twice when playing a song with status bar display active will toggle the background between red BG and normal animation. "Key animations" aren't played if the status bars are on.

Pictures 1-21 have two versions -- a normal one and a 'close-up' one. You get each variation of 1-7 randomly, but the game will display a picture/variation for the daily ones (8-21) that you have not yet obtained if you repeat the conditions. Once you have all of the pictures and variations for a given day, it then picks one at random.

Customization Options

• Frames

• • Every 15 plays in any combination of ARCADE/CLASS/EXPERT modes, the leftmost locked frame will unlock. You CAN exit out of the song in the modes and will count as 1 play.

• • 500 DJP or more to unlock JOJO
  • 1000 DJP or more to unlock Delta

• Explosions

• • CLEAR 1 DAN in SP or DP to get "Orange" [The fire one]

Random Customization

When you unlock all of the options for a given customization feature (frames, turntables, mascots, etc.), you can hit start on that category on the customization screen to have the game randomly pick one for every song you play. For the note explosions, there is also an S-Random option which changes the explosion on a per-note basis (this is highly distracting).
