Re: how to DUMP the music .SID?
I have no idea what process Fabio is following to do his faithful recreation of SID tnunes with InSIDious and a DAW, but I suspect it involves a ton of hard work. You would be better off asking him directly about that. I have never used XSID before, but I just gave it a quick whirl and I looked at t...

Re: how to DUMP the music .SID?
If you are looking for a more visual, real-time representation of what's going on inside the SID chip registers during a tune, go to https://deepsid.chordian.net/ , play a SID tune and click the "Visuals" tab.

Re: how to DUMP the music .SID?
I'll cut to the chase: I think the tool you want is SIDDump: https://csdb.dk/release/?id=192079 This will give you the exact state of each register of the SID chip on every single frame, resulting in a quasi tracker-like output. Great for analyzing SID tunes. Disclaimer: I have not used this tool my...

Re: how to DUMP the music .SID?
You need to be a bit more specific than that. If you are looking to convert the .SID file to audio data, the only way to do that is to use a SID emulator and redirect its output to a WAV file. On Windows the old Sidplay2 could do this ( https://csdb.dk/release/?id=9775 ) or JSIDPlay2 can do this, to...

Re: WIP: Double Density Commercial / Gone
Here is the new version Yes, this one definitely sounds tighter, especially the second half of it. But I doubt that even this version would get anything higher than a grey smilie from me... Well, it should be impossible to recreate the performance of a virtuoso even with all the underlying controls...

Re: WIP: Double Density Commercial / Gone
Re: Gone The original SID has a lead that is played on that beautiful, pulse-width modulated square wave the SID is well known for. On top of it, Drax added filtering to it, and some really clever pitch bends to bring even more emotional content to the lead. You decided to replace all that with a pl...

Re: WIP: Double Density Commercial / Gone
Re: Double Density Commercial I'll be brutally honest with you: this just does not sound very good.I admire you for sticking with free plugins and an open source DAW, but it sounds more like a random selection of instruments that were thrown together. For example, the plucking sound in the intro has...

Re: Looking for older albums
Well, "Nexus 6581" was available on Spotify. Unfortunately, it seems it's no longer playable:

Re: Looking for older albums
You are correct, 15-20 years ago it was far less common to make albums available online in digital format. Since then some remixers have made their old albums available on digital platforms, too, but - as you found out - some have not. It's possible there are also licensing, copyright, and/or financ...

Re: Looking for older albums
Hi! First of all, I apologize for the dead links. I am actually in the process of going through the entire album database on Remix64.com and cleaning it up to the best of my ability. I have added some albums that were missing from the DB, and I am currently in the process of adding HVSC (DeepSID) li...

Re: Error uploading remix?
I'm sure Kwed is looking into it. It's probably related to the recent HVSC #76 update.
