2SID competitions.
Hello everyone.
I've only noticed for while that some various people are now starting to work on these 2SID (6 voice and 2 filter) songs. Although not as popular as standard SIDs, I believe these are quite fun to do, as you have more flexibility to include more than one filter and play more than one instrument which needs two voices, such as the $57 vocal trick for example.
Of course not everyone has a real c64 with an extended SID, but in today's world most people now use an emulator for quick viewing on music entries, which of course the emulators now have the option to include double SID emulation.
Up to now, it seems that Silesia Party in Poland will be holding the first 2SID competition ever in the scene. Would it be a good idea to start these 2SID competitions in general? Similar to those current SID compos that CreaMD usually holds, a 2SID section could be held as well.
Afaik, GoatTracker 2.61 Stereo is the only available music editor to compose these 2SID tunes, but soon there may be some similar editors on the c64.
What's your opinions on this? |

I think it's a good idea. JCH editor has duo sid editing possibilities too. (At least one version has) |

There's also the Prophet64 with 6 track sequencer that works with the SID2SID implant. |

as far as I'm concerned on some Polish parties in the past there was stereo SID competition already but this time we are trying to promote it wider ;-)
and as for programs - there is stereo enabled JCH (written probably by Glover/Samar , requiring +60k ram expansion (already implemented in vice)) and stereo DMC besides mentioned GT Stereo 2.61 and (unmentioned) 1.53
so... go on and submit some nice stereo tunes for Silesia Party ;-)
BTW I have a D64 disk with some stereo tunes runnable under VICE or real hardware with second sid @$d420 - anyone interested? ;-)

+60k expansion? Does it have support for something more common and sane, like a 1764? |

@Tao: +60 is not compatible with anything other excpept +256VCS by Soci/Singular built with +60 compability in mind.
