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? |

If stereo music requires different hardware (=2 sids) than standard c64 music it would be fair if there was special separate cathegory for that. |

As many may have noticed, there have been some great appreciation of the recently released 2SIDs at Silesia 6 this year (especially Randall's entry). I don't need to mention other 2SID releases either. ;)
I hope now that this is enough proof why 2SID should be an important part of C64 scene these days, whether you agree or not. The possibilities are limitless! |

Are there any players supporting 2SID with the option to adjust stereo separation to something more comfortable than just 100% left/right for the respective SIDs?

Sidplay/w V2.6 supports 2SID and can mix both left/right to mono output pretty well. Not sure about Vice or other SID players though. |
