    I have a physical SID chip and I was looking at implementations of players and ... was shocked at how complicated they are. I guess it makes sense though: SID files are tiny because they are in effect full C64 native programs that generate music. It would be hard to do otherwise on that platform.

    I wrote a simple program that transformed basic (60hz, no PCM-style hacks) SID programs to like sequence of byte instructions for the SID chip so that I could replay without emulating and the file sizes are massive compared to the original!

    Here is an awesome single file SID player written in C,

    instruction :) I went the extra mile and made it cycle-accurate though.

    libsidplayfp is probably the best emulator out there advanced and it actually emulates voltage levels at one stage. The wiki has a bunch of info on SID reverse engineered from die shots https://github.com/libsidplayfp/SID_schematics/wiki

    This is a bit over my head, but you can find reverse-engineered bits of the circuitry in the libsidplayfp project's wiki: https://github.com/libsidplayfp/SID_schematics/wiki/Oscillator
