Hi all,

I am looking for a program I can use to put in
musical notes and hear them playing, something
simple, such as three voices, attack/
decay, waveforms, etc. Anybody knows a PC
emulation of the Commodore C64's soundchip
and programming language?.

My system is WinXP Home with soundcard.

My many Googlings returned nothing pertinent.
Can you help please?

Thanks,

Siggi
 
I would suggest posting at alt.comp.freeware.
They have never let me down in the past.

I wonder what words you searched on, for sequencing and notation software is
all about.
Have you been unaware of the development of MIDI (since 1983), or are you
looking for the very sounds of the C64?

In the former case, you might be served with Anvil Studio
(www.anvilstudio.com). The software is free, but limited. Buying the add-ons
makes it relatively expensive.

In the latter case, you'd be looking for some FM-synthesis emulator in
general, I suppose, as it would make no difference to a certain wave form on
what hardware it originates.
 
Can't you use any c64 emulator, and download an old c64 music program?

There's lots about. They tend to be quite good on the sound front.

I used to have a program to emulate the SID chip somewhere though. Search
for SID emulator or the like
