PvC, the pc1600 and pc1600x virtual controller (PC) The original website is no longer active - this link is to an archived version of the site from March 2007. Also, the author of PvC, Kris Rhen, has given permission for a copy of his software to be distributed for free - see this forum post.
PC1600x editor by pete kvitek (PC)
PC1600v editor and emulator (Mac OS X)
JSynthLib librarian (other device support too, Multi-platform).The original website linked to above seems to have been hijacked. But the Internet Archive WayBackMachine seems to have an archive from the late 2000's with a link to the download, to screenshots, to documentation, and to devices supported). I also now see that there's a SourceForge page for it.
