Finalmente siamo stati in grado di aggiornare HVSC, e' stata dura ma anche questa volta ce l'abbiamo fatta.

Ecco l'annuncio ufficiale
High Voltage SID Collection Update 50
Date: May 01, 2009
Resulting Version: 50
Previous Version: 49
After this update, the collection should contain 36,000 SID files!
This update features (all approximates):
678 new SIDs
59 fixed/better rips
573 PlaySID/Sidplay1 specific SIDs eliminated
189 repeats/bad rips eliminated
482 SID credit fixes
135 SID model/clock infos
15 tunes from /DEMOS/UNKNOWN/ identified
10 tunes from /GAMES/ identified
36 tunes moved out of /DEMOS/ to their composers' directories
11 tunes moved out of /GAMES/ to their composers' directories
As you can see, a great amount of files were eliminated in this update.
We decided to remove all the old _PSID files that have a RSID equivalent.
Those _PSID files were only hacks meant for digitized sounds to be played in
Sidplay1, but not on real C64. The _PSID files will be eliminated in every
future releases as soon as new RSID versions of the same .sid files are added.
For those still needing the _PSID files we have put them in a separate archive:
http://hvsc.c64.org/Downloads/C64MUSIC_PlaySID.rar (http://hvsc.c64.org/Downloads/C64MUSIC_PlaySID.rar)
We are always looking for others to help make HVSC a better collection. If you
find any errors or have new rips to add, please email:
Jan Harries, iAN CooG
Thanks to all the people who have helped to make HVSC the
collection that it is today, without your help it would be
a much tougher task.

Rambones demonstrates the phenomenon known as multispeed SID sounds.
Sound making on a Commodore 64 computer. Recorded on an emulator.
Remember!: it sounds better on a real C64! SID 6581 used, it can do distortion.

Onore al merito, per fortuna c'é chi salva dal tempo queste piccole-grandi opere d'arte di chip music.
Ottimo lavoro iAN, congratulazioni a tutto il team di HSVC! :metal:
