SidAmp

If you're old enough to remember WinAmp then you may also be old enough to fondly remember the amazing music of the Commodore 64. When WinAmp was very popular (1998), I wanted a way to play my C64 SID files through that app. Since nothing already existed, I created SidAmp with my friend Nick Kovac.



SidAmp was largely based on the fantastic work of others (specifically, the hardware emulation).


It became reasonably popular at the time, and a bunch of people created skins for it (check them out below). Also really neat was the creation of a theme tune by Hans Axelsson (TDM) of Triad.
