More +specifically, it emulates the Sound Interface Device chip (MOS 6581, +known as SID) and the Micro Processor Unit (MOS 6510) of the +Commodore 64 on your computer. Its platform independent software +emulates hardware components. Therefore it is able to load and execute +C64 machine code programs which produce music or sound. In general +these are independent fragments of code and data which have been +ripped from games and demonstration programs and were transferred +directly from the C64. All you need is a supported operating system and +audio hardware with average PCM waveform playback capabilities. A +fast CPU and a 16-bit sound card is recommended for better +performance. + +More info can be found on: +<http://www.geocities.com/SiliconValley/Lakes/5147/sidplay.html> |
