The state of C64 cassette dumps
12/06/19 03:25 PM


Floppy dumps aside, I think it's also worth noting that the current Commodore cassette format is actually not faithful to the tape's contents (lacking basic things such as pause length), so right now the only properly preserved cassettes for this system are those with WAV dumps.

The same thing was happening with MSX cassettes until, just a couple of years ago, somebody started dumping those in a TZX-based format and successfully asked emulator authors to support it. So, in case that anyone wants to give it a try on figuring out a similar "proper" cassette format, know that it's not too late for that.
