@John Rossi SID chip:
– 3 digitally clocked oscillators with individual amp envelopes, PWM, ring mod and sync, “clocked noise”
– analog filter (digitally controlled) with a very unique character, can process external sounds
– ability to do all sorts of pitch and filter modulation tricks under C64 control
– ability to play ‘digital samples’ using a very crude lo-fi method

That’s it. On paper it’s exciting. In reality you either like it or you don’t. But don’t judge based on the stuff you hear in games – usually they use the oscillators as separate musical parts, instead of combining them to form one obese monosynth. There is software/hardware to put the SID under external MIDI control.

Hear the filter in action at 41:50 in this video, it’s sweet.

In reply to John Rossi. someone suggested that you don't need to comment about everything, especially things you know nothing about. so i guess it "brings to the table" another opportunity for you to embrace yourself.

I understand that some people love to muck around with old PCs. However, I still don’t understand what anything demoed here brings to the table for anybody else than a Commodore 64 enthusiast.
