 Re: Revival of interesting 'n' funny stuffs

@gerliczer: UPDATE: sorry, I forgot to mention, that the info of the below 8bit DAC came from JamesC in a previous post

I think this is the best summary of the Digimax C64 card, with all the drawing, schematics and how it works in the real life:

Actually, there is a C64 MOD player for it, but I hardly believe it would work without a REU or huge extra RAM due to the size of the usual MODs.
(on the other hand our (TLC) SID Digi player output quality could significantly improve if the used DAC has 8 (and not 5) bit final resolution and would make the final processing faster (supposely the internal calcualations done in 8 bit, but in the final step it has to be stretched into 5 bit with lookup tables (as far as I know) )

To play WAVs, the Plus/4 has more processing power than C64 with switched off screen, but frankly speaking it has no real added value :-)
