Hello,

i am working on a sample-player for the C65, and have
discovered some strange things..

First, NEVER EVER use the SID in FAST-Mode, i have
lost a precious 6581 by doing this.


I have programmed 2 Routines, one which also runs on a
C64, or on a C65 completely in Slow-Mode.

The other Routine runs in Fast-Mode and before each
Access on the SID, switches to Slow-Mode (and back).

So far so good, but the second Program is slower than
the first..

Any Ideas, why the "fast" Program is slower ?

BTW, the player is an NMI-Interrupt, and the
"main"-program just counts, to show how fast it is.

Mit freundlichen Gruessen,
      Andre Kaesmacher
