SID visualization
So I did an attempt at SID visualization in some recent G*P music releases (e.g. Kobra Khan). Obviously some things could be still be improved, e.g. it is not currently aware of ADSR nor filter, but I'm curious what historically have been made (and I don't want to plow through all music collections/releases ;), does anyone have good example of other nice (real-time or not) visualizations of SID music? I had some suggestions of trying "offline frequency analysis" for better accuracy... Any thoughts on the subject? :) |

Sid visualisation from within the C64 can be done by reading which values are stored to $d400-$d418 in a given frame and then recreating an approximation which updates itself (ADSR slope, waveform type used, frequency etc)
The Envelope for channel 3 can however be read via $d41c (with $d41b being the oscillator values for channel 3) |

This was my attempt sometime ago on the subject:

here's mine:
Nostalgia
load funplayer from the d64.
you'll need a ripped music binary to load and see what it does. |

off topic/out of competition ;)
PlayEm64 V1.0
apart from rastertime in border I only show $D41B and $D41C as sprite bars with some stupid LSR algo making it fit into stretch sprite matrix :)
BTT: Yours and soci's really look quite impressive, no idea how to make those any better.
Edit:
Two more I always enjoyed:

I attached $d41b/$d41c to my old "In a loop" intro a while back. You have to find a track with lots of channel 3 noise in though, like this one by Q-Man. |

The Last Ninja II Muz! has vertical d41b+d41c scope.
In a Loop has some great visual effects. |

Once had the idea for a music collection, that never happened, to convert the sid to wav, and get some data tables on pc/mac. Much more possibilities :) |

Well, all sid waveforms have fourier series representation. Perhaps Soci used this idea in his fourier view.
(Wiki stuff)
Square is a sum of odd integer (n) harmonic frequencies
Triangle is a sum of odd integer (n) harmonic frequencies where 4n-1 harmonic shifted by 180 degrees.
Sawtooth has all integer (n) harmonics
(white)Noise has evenly distributed energy on all bands.
Integer harmonics attenuate in relation to n bit differently whether it is square, triangle or saw.
However, it would be possible to split the frqband into N bands and make some tables that can be used to tell how much of each harmonic to sum to each band energy for each frequency value.
Filter is bit of a problem, but one could fake it on the viewer especially if the number of bands is not too large.
So, in short -> Fake it! |

Cubic Player
displays all channels which is pretty impressive, because it has to emulate (fake) sid a bit to do so. fourier and lots of other stuff is in there aswell.
(worth to read the note if your into details) |

10 Years HVSC has data vis on all songs. You have to press some key while the song is playing, it was an F-key or Run Stop or maybe Restore. |
