I've heard lots of SID in lots of places recently......but not here I'm afraid. I hear the sound you mean, but it's just analog synth to me.

Lala been listening to far too many SID choons ;)

Actually, it's more of an obsession. If you ask me, I hear SID sounds even in Daft Punk's Tron soundtrack. :)

Actually my brother said the same about the Tron Legacy soundtrack, he thought he could hear stuff from "those old C64 games you played" during the film...

Ha - I hear you loud and clear Lala. Been in some sticky situations myself when I've heard a tune/sound in a bar or during a movie and found myself pronouncing to the world (or anyone in earshot) - "that's pure c64 SID that is!"......then wishing the inner geek in me would know when to stay quite. :oops: :oops: :oops:

Of course, the chances are it isn't SID (in the Lexus commercial or Tron Legacy) but sounds with waveforms that are similar to what the SID can produce...
