The time has finally come as I have decided to release my Dissertation onto the internet under a GNU general public license v2. This was created at the University of Huddersfield as I was curious about how emulations worked and wanted to try my hand at creating one.
Its called simpleSID and is a cycle based emulation of the 8580 SID chip. I have not dealt with the 6581 as there are some interesting characteristics of that chip that make it hard to model.
You can download the source over at the simpleSID google code page. So go ahead and have a look at the code. It also contains a GUI application built with MFC used for testing and is useful for someone interested in experimenting with the SID and discovering how it works. Also I must express that this is very beta software so you have been warned.
Here is some preview sounds so you can get to hear it. They are just the basic waveforms the SID emulation generates.
