Where are the “_PSID” recordings?
The _PSID are files that were back in the Amiga days hacked to be played perfectly with samples when using Amiga PlaySID. Today, the result (when played on a real Commodore 64) is sample playback missing or totally screwed up etc by using PSID64 (which the entire SOASC= was used for). I think there are possibilities to record even the PSID files by using MMC64 or another dedicated SID player on the C64 itself, but this has not yet been researched upon. But, as a strict rule for the SOASC= collection *ALL* indications of _PSID was ignored in all my tools and recordings. This is also mentioned in HVSC FAQ and they have intentions to re-rip all _PSID tunes and make them real C64 ripped files which will be played correctly on a real C64. Today’s _PSID files are not really suitable and can’t be trusted at all, so we filter them out!. Today, most tunes are duplicated with both the PSID and the regular SID format anyway, so this question will be null and void during time.
