Welcome to the world of C64 music

TinySID is the smallest SID player available. Its most advantage lies in its unique HardSID support, that is:
  • exact C64 <-> PC cycle syncronizing
  • multispeed tunes will use the same timing a real C64 does
  • improved HardSID sample output (includes mixer)
    • Works for ISA based cards
    • HardSID4U support currently in development
  • support for multiprocessor systems
  • Current windows 32 bit version requires just 23kbyte.

Current version features:

  • Multiplatform
    • Native 32/64 bit windows support (both with hardsid support)
    • Runs on Unix/linux platform (hardsid version available, but not online yet)
    • Apple Macinthosh OS X 10.4 and 10.5 universal binary (no HardSID support yet)
    • Playstation Portable (PSP) version available
    • Also incorporated in rockbox for portable mp3 players
  • Accurate playback on both hardsid and software emulation, includes multispeed tunes
  • Digitized sample playback on both hardsid and software emulation
  • 99% 6510 cpu emulation (still some bugs to fix)
  • Fat 6581 SID emulation, including filters. Sounds different than other players!

Please note that TinySID has nothing to do with other projects such as SIDPlay. The 6510/6581 emulation is based on routines by Tammo Hinrichs (kb) and has been further developed.
