SID loves Paula

[gizz72]

Greetings,

I used to connect my C64c, back in the late 90's, on a HIFI system while playing Turrican. I was awsome! Then connecting an Amiga500+, playing the same game was awesomer! Then came MP3, it began to sound like really bad! Specially those with 128mhz frequency. Old Paula did not stand a chance! I had to convert these MP3 to Amiga Audio IFFs to be able to achive a better sound quality, but in MONO. Emulating SID with Paula did sound good as well! With these classic machines, I find SID plays better along if Paula makes the beats and rythms, I bet it would sound alot better than an MP3 and plugged on a hifi!

Regards,

So you converted already screwed stereo sound into another format in mono and it sounded BETTER? :confused:

Yes, once converted to iff audio, it sounded better than being played directely as MP3 which sounds more like the tone of a bell. I use a converter program called mp3 to iff from aminet.

@zak67 Thanks for the correction. Not much an expert on this things, but I know a good sound when I hear it.
