Rip Compo
If you think you are good enough to rip SID tunes
and you want to win a prize doing it,
visit Steppe's and Yodelking's Rip Compo!

If you would like to request a tune not that is not in the HVSC (High Voltage SID Collection), yet, and it is also not a Compute Gazette SIDplayer music (Americans will know what I am talking about) and/or you would like to sign up for the SID Hunt list to get notified whenever this page is updated, then please, use the forms below.

IMPORTANT: Before you request a SID tune, please, make sure that:

  1. It's not in the HVSC, yet. HVSC contains over 10,000 SID files from games and demos, so chances are that what you are looking for is already in it.

    Online HVSC search engines you can use to find out whether what you want is already in HVSC:
  2. It has not been ripped already (see the HVSC Ripped Tunes page).
  3. It's not a Compute Gazette SIDplayer music.
  4. You might also want to check the Demodungeon first, which has a great list of demos and also shows what tunes can be heard in those demos.

NOTE: It is perfectly okay to place a request for a tune that is already on the list of requested tunes (see link above). When more than one person requests a tune, it gets emphasized on the SID Hunt list. However, this gives absolutely no guarantees that the tune will be ripped earlier.
