And just to clarify, ramping is the addition of shots (electronically via software or code) so that you increase your rate of fire with a set number of pulls. In other words if you pull the trigger 3 times per second and maintain that rate you'll shoot 15 balls per second.

Bounce is what occurs when your board detects the activation of the switch. Markers with electronic switches can be configured so the reverberation of the marker causes the switch to activate (often on the pull and release of the trigger), causing extra shots to fire.

Ramping, unlike bounce, is controlled from the circuit board. If you lay off the trigger the balls will stop. With bounce, the very act of firing causes kick in the marker which in turn fires another shot which in turn fires another, etc. Usually trigger, switch and board settings can be changed to correct bounce.
