I need to get my c64 out of its box again... right now lack of space is making it all a bit difficult, but I'm getting there!
Anyway I agree, Sidwizard really rocks (kudos @hermit!)! What would make it even better for me is a HerMIDI interface, anybody know if some people sell those built? DIY is a bit difficult for me atm...

Oh and another question, did anybody ever make a cheatsheet thing for SIDwizard?

the sidwizard user manual has also several tables for helping to compose with it.

All I want to know is, is it SID2SID compatible? If not, I gotta stick with MSSIAH.

A new version was born. Beside fixes I implemented some features that were requested.

You can try whether the MIDI-sync and start/stop is more usable than before. Unfortunately I had no setup to test it, but it should work, at least it worked in VICE emulator with virtual MIDI-port to/from MIDItrk.
See changelog.txt in 'manuals' folder for more information on new features...

Since Kerberos is no more, would Sid Wizard work with Easy Flash 3 or 1545 Ultimate II+ alongside HerMIDI?

I have neither of those cartridges so this will probably be answered by someone else. (I have Turbo Chameleon which works fine.)
Though I think it should work with any cartridge that has the standard LOAD/SAVE KERNAL entry points. If that doesn't work you can try the SID-Wizard version (with postfix -KERNALload) which forces the traditional ROM LOAD/SAVE entries.
Of course you need an Y-split serial cable for 1541U if it occupies the C64 serial port and doesn't have another receptacle to put HerMIDI in with daisy chaining method.

I can absolutely agree with the thread. SW is an awesome tool. It can do everything well you suspect and some more you don't.

There's a few SID-Wizard capture on my channel:

They are not tutorials, but music playback with some additional information about each in the very bottom line of the video.
I can recommend VICE2.4 with 8580 (1489) emulation, it's a very accurate reproduction of the 8580' sound.
Also, there are numerous solutions like SIDBlaster USB where you can simply connect a SID chip to you PC via USB.
So maybe you don't have to have a real C64 but a SID only and it's still possible to compose and listen to some music - not SID-Wizard only but basically anything.
