From: David Murray on 22 Mar 2010 14:47 I just downloaded the App yesterday and I think it is a pretty good deal for $0.99. It allows you to immediately access and download any SID file from the high-voltage SID collection and store it on the device. I listened to all my old favorites. However, I do have some complaints with it.. 1) it doesn't allow you to fast forward or rewind within a specific song. 2) It would be nice to have some type of visual representation of what is going on with the song. (At least the MOD player gives an oscilloscope) 3) It doesn't seem to allow you to delete individual songs that you've downloaded, unless you want to delete them all. For example, I was looking for a particular version of Axel F but there were like 20 of them (and I never found the one I wanted) and I can't get rid of them. Anyone else tried this app?

Rewind isn't possible with sid files, they're just C64 programs, you know, not mp3/wav/mod. You can just force them to reinit (restart). Fast forward it's possible only if the CPU permits to call more times the play routine, and should be doable at least for 2x and 4x speed on any modern CPU. -- -=[]=--- iAN CooG/HVSC & C64Intros ---=[]=-

How about a link/app name?

I don't have a link, but if you just search for "SID PLAYER" in the App store, it is the only one. |
