About

The source contained in this repository was disassembled from the C64 version and documented by leveraging several preexisting resources (see notes).

History

Released in 1982, SAM was the first commercial all-software voice synthesizer. Originally authored by Mark Barton for the Apple II, SAM was ported to the Atari 400/800 and C64 later the same year.

For more about the history of SAM, I recommend the excellent interview with Mark in ANTIC episode 385.
