ZIF socketed C64 for SID chip swap
ZIF (Zero insertion force) sockets are a great way to reduce the wear on chip pins when you need to swap them often, which is as you've guessed what I need.
Hm. Comparing different SIDs for defects that are fun to reproduce, perhaps? A circuit bending option in software emulation that allows inside-the-device level tweaks? Hmmm...

ReplyDeleteFilters curves and combined waveforms are especially different between each SID, so yeah, having a 'make your own sid" drop down is the target idea.
