And I'm also a fan of "Bleep'" by Tonebytes, also easy to use and free, although more inspired by the C64 than a direct emulation of it:

I think they all sound pretty good. You can at least use them to get samples of the combo-waveforms, those are the only sounds that you couldn't just use any other VST to get. Well, maybe table-style sounds won't be that easy either.

I don't know if you should haha. I think the two best tracks to show the diversity of the plug-ins are Growth and Late September.  Stay away from the rest lol.

I really like dr sid for percussive sounds.

I have some stuff on my soundcloud that uses both plug-ins exclusively, but the music is really bad hahaha.

Good use of SID drums. I rather enjoyed that first track. Second track is good too. Haven't listened to the others.

I ended up grabbing a copy of SIDizer and haven't noticed any noise associated with it. I did download Dr. SID as well but I haven't gotten around to messing with it.

For being free plug-ins,  you can get some really great sounds out of them. Dr. Sid. is all drums and sfx. I use pure for melodies and such, but you can make percussive sounds if you want.

I highly recommend Plogue's "Chipsounds". This was the Perfect VST for my ideas.
Bought QuadraSID many years ago, however I did got the sound how i want it and there seems to be some minor bugs. I don't say that Chipsounds are no With bugs, but its only minor. FL Studio 64bit can be the reason why QuadraSID is bugged, It seems to reset the preset I have chosen when I load my Projects.

SIDizer is also good, Clear Nice sound, but there is this noise when you are not using it. Bought it 6months ago, and have not used it much cause of that squeky sound/noise in the background.

I hope that helped a bit smile

I was wondering if you guys had any recommendations or comments on any VSTs?

I've used QuadraSID which according to the website is pretty accurate but the interface is rather confusing. https://refx.com/products/quadrasid/summary/

I like the look of SIDizer but would like to hear some people's opinions before I throw down on it.  http://www.hypersynth.com/sidizer.html

Or maybe one of the many free options are pretty good? http://woolyss.com/chipmusic-plugins.php?s=Commodore

Ultimately I may scratch using a VST altogether and just write stuff in HivelyTracker but I sure do love Renoise.
