Subject: MODs Covered on the C64, v1.3

Welcome to a wonderful collection of MODs known as "MODs
Covered on the C64".  That's right -- every single one of these
modules has been covered by SID artists.

The collection was put together for those SID fans who have never
heard or would like to once again hear the original modules that
some SIDs cover.  Interestingly enough, you find that you may
actually prefer some of the SID versions while for other cases
the modules will clearly sound better.  You'll find that this
collection is very diverse, indeed, and includes many famous
modules from years ago as well some that are only a few months old.

To find out which SIDs are covering which modules, you'll have to
look in the 'STIL.txt' file that is included with the High Voltage
SID Collection (HVSC) under the /DOCUMENTS directory.  This file
is also available on-line in HTML format from the HVSC site -- see
below.  Just open the file and search for the module name.
Sometimes you'll find that multiple SIDs cover one module.

Note that we are still looking for other modules covered on the
C64.  Please see Modules_Wanted.txt included in this collection.
If you find a module that covers a SID not listed in the STIL,
please send me the module as well and let me know which SID it
is covering.

For those of you who are new to modules or module-ignorant, know
that not all module players are created equal.  For Windows, try
checking out www.modplug.com for one of the better module
players.  This player handles XM files significantly better than
Winamp and MOD4Win.  For other platforms, you'll have to ask
around to find out what the best module player is for your system.

Enjoy, and check out the HVSC web site:
