What makes the SID chip special are the analog filters. Otherwise, it is easy to emulate as the video shows. MIDISID 4 and Elektron SidStation can access the filters for a wide range of sounds.

Long shot but who knows…
There was an awesome c64 music radio show on KDVS (the UC Davis radio station) back in the nineties, but I can find zero record of it existing. Does anyone on this thread know anything about it, or even perhaps have recordings?

I wonder how hard it would be to make a SID using transistors, capacitors, resistors. The fact that no one has done it makes me think it's just too difficult.

Each one would fit perfectly on USBSID-Pico
