SID Factory II

Laxity and I have decided to go BETA with SID Factory II to let all curious SID composers also have a go at this cross-platform SID editor.

We have a Facebook group that you are welcome to join. There's also a nifty user manual there. If you're not on Facebook, this thread should serve as another place where we can share questions, ideas, music, bugs, new builds, additional files, etc.

Please note that although SID Factory II is quite stable and more than capable of editing SID tunes at this point, it is still missing a few essential things such as e.g. sub tunes. We have a solid ToDo and will post new builds here as they become available.

The first official BETA build: SIDFactoryII_20200604.zip

Since you mention cross platform... can you link the source too? Ever since walt (i think) mentioned it, i was waiting for it so i can perhaps hack support for my sample player things into it (the current workflow with converting and mod editing is terrible).

The source code is not shared at this point. It's Laxity's baby for now. =)

What is meant by cross-platform is that he coded it with cross-platform compatibility in mind. It should be possible to compile it later for Mac, for instance.

But for now, it's for Windows.

Cool! Is this modular like SID Factory 0.5 (alpha 1) so you can add custom players?

I can't play any instrument other than a whistle, but thanks for the release!

Sounds fantastic. Wondering if it would be possible to compile to a web version.

About the source being shared later, Laxity just wrote this in our Facebook group:

Quoting Laxity
I think I have to release the source code as per the license to use ReSID. I will do so, when the internal data formats have been solidified, so that anyone wanting to modify the editor has a fair chance to retain compatibility.
