Hig Voltage Sid Collection

I just downloaded the High Voltage Sid Collection (HVSC), which is a collection of sid files, which is files with music dumped from the C64. HVSC is one of the largest and most accurate computer music collections known.

Download the collection.

The big thing I found today was that Sidplay was updated to version 2.5. It was a revolution, this is the most accurate SID emulation I’ve ever heard.

C64 commodore SID

The MOS Technology 6581/8580 SID (Sound Interface Device) is the built-in Programmable Sound Generator chip of Commodore’s CBM-II, Commodore 64, Commodore 128 and Commodore MAX Machine home computers. It was one of the first sound chips of its kind to be included in a home computer prior to the digital sound revolution.

Together with the VIC-II graphics chip, the SID was instrumental in making the C64 the best selling computer in history, and is partly credited for initiating the demoscene.
