TK. Posted January 26, 2006 Report Share Posted January 26, 2006 Hi Jack,the ".sid" format is just a container for a C64 executable. This means that you can use any C64 song editor in order to compose these tunes, and you could run it on an emulator. However, I don't know which editors are currently "state-of-the-art"... the .sid format itself is described in DOCUMENTS/SID_file_format.txt, which is part of the HVSCBest Regards, Thorsten.

jackan Posted January 26, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 26, 2006 Thank you for your answer, Thorsten. I have now acquired a C64 emulator which seems to work fine. Does anyone have any tips concerning which editor software to use? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
