The Commodore 64 was the primary choice for gamers in the early 80s. This nicotine-colored plastic wonder created the foundation of gaming as we know it today and still stands as one of the most impactful devices ever made for games.
The C64 was blessed with the three-channel SID chip (Sound Interface Device), which was partially analog and digital. The SID chip has several analog anomalies, which is why it still hasn't been fully emulated even today, including natural detuning, noise and imperfect clicks. We Ultra Deep-Sampled™ three different SID chips over two generations of chipsets from the SID Station and the MOS Sammich, which contains newer generations (less noisy) variations of the infamous chipset.
Why emulate - when you can Ultra Deep-Sample™ the real deal?
The Commodore 64 is a highly unique machine and we had to cover every possible angle of sampling. Including a massive assortment of classic SID Arp sounds with extensive round-robin, Basses, Leads, Oscillators from each Chipset, Pads and Plucked sounds.
In addition to Ultra Deep-Sampling the raw state of the unit - we also did additional recordings using a massive amount of analog gear, including Roland 501 Tape Machine, Strymon and Meris Pedals, GameChanger Audio Distortion, Elektron Devices, Bricasti, NEVE, ToneBeasts and several other devices to heat the signal.
