  • I am new here, have been follwing Mega65 with excitement on Facebook.

    I was thinking about the SID. As I understands it will be pretty much the original SID but much better sound qulaity. Why not making a SID för the 21:st century too? With more channels, features and effects. I guess there is solutions availble that could be implemented in the FPGA. Like a digital audiobox that do the standad stuff for audio. Making that box progamable with POKEs could be very interesting. Like a nextgen SID for today. I guess the space on the FPGA is very limited and you have to choose well what to put there. But wouldn't a upgraded SID be resonable? It feels like one could have quite much good stuff done with not so much more hardware.

  • The c65 had original 2 SIDs (8550).

    At the moment, the MEGA65 uses 2 SIDs implemented in the FPGA but at a later point in time, after the release,

    it is planned to make an extension, so that you can plug in 2 real SIDs too.

    So having a stereo SID is already quite an extension and is original to the c65

    and it guaranties the compatibility to the c64.

    But the fpga is quite big, so there should be space for own experimenting and stuff.

  • One option for a more powerful sound would be ARM2SID with its FM emulation...

  • Ein erweiteter SID müsste sich dem Problem stellen, dass er möglichst kompatibel zum ursprünglichen SID sein sollte. Ansonsten wird es schwierig, den C64-Modus mit SID-Zugriff umzusetzen.

    Aber prinzipiell müsste es schon gehen.
