The ZX Spectrum is an 8-bit personal home computer released in the United Kingdom in 1982 by Sinclair Research.

Features.

## Joystick control

The joystick attached to port 1 is by default mapped as a Kempston interface.

It can be disabled via the “Kempston Joy” item in Extensions menu.

## Virtual cassette interface

The virtual cassette interface supports loading of files in TAP format.

### Speed mode

You can choose between Authentic and Turbo speed modes.

The Turbo speed mode hooks instrumentation code into the ROM load routine to bypass bit serial loading. This does not work with custom loader routines, thus in case loading fails with Turbo speed mode fall back to Authentic speed mode.

ROMS.

Due to copyright reasons, ROMs are not included and must be placed separately on the Replay SDCARD.
