Keine Ahnung, warum ich das nicht vorher gefunden habe. Naja, dann hier nochmal für alle, die’s noch nicht kennen: My interest was more playing back the old C64 tunes from games and demos. Keep in mind, an average SID file is about 2kilobyte to 10kilobyte; a perfect Small Web Format for all your music during preloading needs . Now, this is something I have been working on before in Flash 9, using the FC64 project, the amazing Flash C64 emulation effort by Claus Wahlers and Darron Schall. Last year, I even made a start with porting FC64 to Flash 10, but that needed to be dropped in favor of actual client work. SID Playback is something different from playing back .mod .xm or .mid files, as the SID chip doesn’t do much on it’s own. Essentially, a .SID file is an executable meant to be ran on the 6510, the Commodore 64′s CPU. So to playback the file, you not only need to emulate the SID chip, but also the 6510 and the needed registers / memory.Gefunden auf Unitzeroone.com [...] [...] ‘n bisschen derber Krach in der Nacht kann nicht schaden – TinySidFlash!

I'm not good enough with C++ to find out what to change etc :( but i want to use some SID files for a game, converting makes it sounds ugly. Great work,

I have a big question!? It possible replace the original sampleData class from AS3 by a new system writed in C? Because, the Sampledata use a buffer from 2048 up to 8192 samples and i'snt possible to change the data on the fly in this buffer. It's introduce a latency up to +/- 600 ms :-/ Once the buffer is playing, we must wait for the next Event to a change of sound (DSP) is listenable. I like Blue Monday.. :-)) Hello UnitZeroOne, Verry good job! ;-)
