The High Voltage SID Collection (HVSC) is a freeware hobby project which organises Commodore 64 music (also known as SID music) into an archive for both musicians and fans alike.
The work on the collection is done completely in the Team and contributors’ spare time and is proudly one of the largest and most accurate computer music collections known.
This update features (all approximates):
- 729 new SIDs
- 31 fixed/better rips
- 11 repeats/bad rips eliminated
- 314 SID credit fixes
- 23 SID model/clock infos
- 6 tunes from /DEMOS/UNKNOWN/ identified
- 3 tunes from /GAMES/ identified
- 28 tunes moved out of /DEMOS/ to their composers’ directories
- 5 tunes moved out of /GAMES/ to their composers’ directories
The collection should contain 54,387 SID files!

The return of the Hybrid Sid Player by xAD/Nightfall & Gianluca Renzi (RetroBit Lab)
Based on the Project and Hardware Schematic by Markus Gritsch released in the years 2011-2015 on the forum dangerousprototypes. Thanks Markus.
Changelog:
v1.11 – 22/06/2021
Updated:
- Decreased more than before the brightness of the display after 10 seconds if no activity is done on the buttons or encoder.
- Slighty improved the timing (CPU cycle) of the 6510 emulator but we are far from my perception of absolute perfection :-D
Added:
- Illegal/undocumented opcodes to the CPU Emulator:
- RRA (Combination of two operations with the same addressing mode (Sub-instructions: ADC, ROR))
- Automatic hardware SID switch between ZIF Socket #1 and ZIF Socket #2 (example if it is made only for 6581 or 8580).
- This features is included in the prototype pcb. The swap will be displayed by a led placed on the lower part of the ZIF Socket.
- Improved a little bit the file error handling.
- If you try to load a file not supported a message “Wrong file format” will be displayed on the screen.
- If you try to load a RSID file format a message “RSID detected, but cannot play it!” will be displayed on the screen.
This is the official demo party results from Transmission64. See also the CSDB section for more informations and download.

- 2) By pressing the SW1 button at the same time with the reset button or at power-on and released it.
- 3) Using the file browser (the same used to browse the *.SID / *.DMP files), just choose the file with the firmware and it will be installed.
- A status bar with a scrolling bits displays the writing status of the firmware.
- The firmware update file must be copied and NOT renamed to the root directory of the USB flash drive.
- Added some illegal/undocumented opcodes to the CPU Emulator:

Changelog:
v1.05 – 18/05/2021
Updated:
- Made a single subroutine for the index eeprom write instead of repeating it many times in the code.
- Increased the display time of the sid model to 3 seconds.
- The action to clean the data in the eeprom has been changed.
- Now for reset the default settings just hold down the MODE button during boot until the message “Reset Default Settings” appears and then release it, the player will reboot.
Added:
- Faster than hell! :D
- Now when you are in the browsing sid files section you can also use the PREVIOUS or NEXT buttons to quickly scroll the list in both directions.
- You are Sleeping ? :D
- If you fall asleep while you listening a SID tunes and you are in the browsing sid files section after 30 seconds the player will automatically switch to the tuneinfo/vu-meter view mode. (available only if you are playing SID o SID/DIGI tunes , no DMP)
- Added some illegal/undocumented opcodes to the CPU Emulator:
- SHA
- SHS
- SBC ($EB)
- ASR
- ANC
- ARR
Fixed:
- The playing time of a song runs even if it wasn’t playing anything, this happen only at the first time when you power-on or reset the player and you haven’t chosen a song to listen yet.

- [All models] Adds C64 joystick port selection; see notes below
- Adds C64 only Classic mode added to THEC64 Mini
- Adds disk swapping added to THEC64 Mini
- [All models] Adds Commodore REU support with 512K, 2MB or 16MB as filename flags or CJM parameters; see notes below

- R2 = 2MB REU enabled
- RM = 16MB REU enabled
For example:
myreudisk_R5.d64
See the user manual for further details on the use of filename flags.
To select with a CJM file, use one of the following parameters:
- reu512 = 512K REU enabled
- reu2048 = 2MB REU enabled
- reu16384 = 16MB REU enabled
For example:
X:64,reu16384
See the user manual for further details on creating CJM files.
To switch the joystick in use between joystick port 1 or port 2 when running a C64 program, press and hold the joystick ☰ button, and then pressing joystick Ⓐ for port 1 or joystick Ⓑ for port 2. This will override the J1 filename flag or CJM primary port setting, if either are supplied.
