X1L3 - ALLEYKAT - HOMEWARD BOUND - 8580 SID - revision 3 test demo

video upload by X1L3

"Testing the new revision 3 build.

To hop back to 1982 and quote Robotron 2084:
'initial tests indicate all systems ok'....

Nothing fancy. Just pitch and pulse width modulation on two voices. It sounds nice for so little. Makes me think of a melancholy Commodore 64 Radiohead. I like how with no pulse width modulation it sounds basic and cute, then when you hit it with pulse width sweeps it's suddenly the trademark gnarly sound of the C64 📺🕹️❤️💚💙

With the board fixes and minor code tweaks at revision 3, it appears that everything works as it should. The module is complete 😊

Have verified it to work flawlessly with 6581 and 8580 SIDs. It also works perfectly with the Swinsid and Open source SID. I'd imagine an Armsid will work too.

Purrrrrrrrrrfect 🐈🐾🐾🐾

Will keep this one for later. There's a nice demo tune to be had there when all the control in my rig is free again to build it 🎵🎵🎵"
