NAME

       sidplay      — Music player and C64 SID chip emulator

SYNOPSIS

       sidplay       options        datafile  |-

DESCRIPTION

       Sidplayer is a music player program that emulates the the Sound Interface Device chip (MOS 6581, commonly
       called SID) and the Micro Processor Unit (MOS 6510),  allowing  you  to  play  music  files  written  for
       Commodore 64 on a modern computer.

       All  you  need is audio hardware with average PCM waveform playback capabilities. A fast CPU and a 16-bit
       sound card are recommended for better performance and slightly better audio quality.
