Howdy,

I want to reduce if not eliminate the noise my C64 audio output has.
Someone had mentioned to me about a resistor on the audio in circuit at one of the meetings, but I haven't found this info online yet.

There are two other tricks I've heard of to reduce the noise:

1. Ground the "Audio In" pin on the SID. Part of the noise you're hearing is a floating input being run through the SID and then output.

2. Blank the screen when nothing is being played.

Check online for details though.
