SIDPLAY is a Commodore 64 music player. It emulates the sound chip and other internals of the Commodore 64 home computer to play back music that was originally written on it. The sound chip was called the "Sound Interface Device" or SID, and therefore this music is known as SID music. The SID chip is basically a three voice synthesizer on a chip. The unusual combination of digital and analogue circuitry is the reason for its distinctive sound. What's New: Version 3.3: Updated to latest libsidplay2 and reSID components. Integrated HardSID support courtesy of Téli Sándor and Hard Software (requires driver available from http://www.hardsid.com/). Redesigned the user interface using a separate info window. Fixed visual glitches on Panther. Added mixer panel with mute and solo controls. Improved filter adjustment panel with options to add and remove filter spline points. Added automatic download of composer photos from http://composers.c64.org/. Added feature to play a random tune from the HVSC collection. Added dock menu. Improved search in playlists. Updated to PSID64 0.6. Abandoned use of old libsidplay1. Fixed various major and minor bugs. |  |
