Because a SID has three voices, an analog filter, and is a hell of a lot smaller, and probably a hell of a lot less dangerous... i guess!? :lol:

Otherwise a nice effects.

I would switch one of my c64:s for a Tesla coil to play around with in my livingroom without blinking! =)

Looks like a SID made for massive rock concerts, like Jarre's laser harp.
