The return of the Hybrid Sid Player by xAD/Nightfall & Gianluca Renzi (RetroBit Lab)

Basato sul progetto di Markus Gritsch pubblicato negli anni 2011-2015 sul forum dangerousprotypes. Grazie Markus.

Changelog:

v1.15 – 26/9/2021

Updated:

• Slightly improved the CIA timing, now the SID tune “https://hvsc.csdb.dk/MUSICIANS/P/Page_Jason/25_Hurts.sid” and probably some others they sounds fairly well without “clicking/noise/beeping” in some parts of the song. *
• Slightly improved the VBI timing, now the SID tune “https://hvsc.csdb.dk/MUSICIANS/S/Stinsen/Freeloader.sid” and probably some others they sounds fairly well without “clicking/noise/beeping” in some parts of the song. *
• When the (Auto/Random/Intro) MODE is used the brightness of the oled is restored on each change of music until the default timeout is reached.

* I’ll never stop saying we are far away from my personal feeling of absolute perfection but sound ok for 90% of peoples, luckily there aren’t many SID sound purists :-D
Many people still think that a SID played with a SID emulator on a Mobile Phone or PC sounds absolutely identical to the one played with the SID in the original hardware version :-|

Fixed:

• In some cases the choice of subtunes is no longer displayed if the SID supports the multi-tunes after the implementation of clock speed emulation display.
• Fixed subroutine which takes care of loading and initializing the SID tune with SUBTUNES, were are missing some variables such as the “show_sidinfo_model” and some debug strings.
• LAX Opcode $AB instead of LXA (https://www.oric.org/ftp/ceo/ceomag/downloads/ebooks/nomoresecretsnmos6510.pdf) Used by this SID Tune: https://hvsc.csdb.dk/MUSICIANS/H/Holt_Hein/Whats_Your_Lame_Excuse.sid
