This project is an attempt to provide a visual dimension to chiptune music while browsing the High Voltage SID Collection using an C64-themed UI.
The Waveform viewer is heavily inspired by SIDWizPlus.
- HVSC compliant SID music player: can play SID Files / subsongs in SID files / playlists.
- File browser: with dircache and playlist cache generation on first access.
- Waveform viewer: using SID information (this is not analog capture!).
- HVSC Archive downloader: because dowloading and unzipping manually is so 2020.
- SD-Updatable: so the SD Card can host other loadable binaries (e.g. WiFi configurator, MIDI relay, etc).
- ESP32 LoLin D32 Pro (Wroom works too but Wrover is recommended)
- SPI TFT 1.4 128x128 (e.g. Wemos 1.44“ inch TFT LCD shield)
- I2C XPad Buttons Shield
- SPI Micro SD Card reader
- SID6581/FPGASID/TeenSID/SwinSID
- ESP32 <=> SID shield

- Build yourself a SID6581 to ESP32 PCB (see the /pcb folder or hwpit's stereo implementation
- Flash your ESP32 with the sketch
- Deploy the HVSC archive on the SD Card by either:
- Letting the ESP32-SIDViewer download and unzip it (this can take up to 4 hours and may require to setup the WiFi SSID/PASS in
config.h
) - Manually copying the
MUSICIANS
,GAMES
andDEMO
folders from the HVSC archive into the/sid
folder and theSonglengths.md5
file into the/md5
folder.
- Letting the ESP32-SIDViewer download and unzip it (this can take up to 4 hours and may require to setup the WiFi SSID/PASS in
- Let the ESP32 do the indexing of the MD5 file, this is only a one time operation.
