If you don’t have a circuit bent synthesizer to create your awesome chiptune tracks, then SidTracker64 is the app you have been looking for! There is no need to fork out for expensive old equipment- you just need $16.99AUD (and your iPad) and you are ready to release your inner Rob Hubbard and Martin Galway tunes.
SidTracker64 is for everyone, from the absolute beginner (like myself) to the accomplished chiptunes maestro – you’ll be hard pressed not to find a feature you are looking for. When you fire up the app, you are greeted by the familiar C64 blue screen which then “loads” the synth control deck. You may be daunted at first with all the knobs, buttons and switches, but the helpful tutorial is only a swipe away. There are many and varied features within SidTracker64, and rather than regurgitating them here, check out the app on iTunes. Once you like what you see (we are confident you will be impressed like we were), buy the app, you won’t regret it! Now, If you excuse me, I’m gonna go back to creating that awesome Commando SID track *wink*.
No need to have expensive equipment – just grab SidTracker64 for your iPad to make those sweet SID chiptunes!
