About sidplaywx
The sidplaywx is a GUI player for Commodore 64 SID chip tunes aiming to provide a feature-rich & intuitive SID tune playback experience on the PC.
The current alpha version is fully usable, supporting QoL features like seeking, drag & drop, unicode paths, DPI awareness and much more.
The sidplaywx uses libsidplayfp (with ReSIDfp) for ultimate quality in SID emulation, wxWidgets for native GUI on supported platforms, and PortAudio for audio output.
