ravenkult posted:What's the most cyberpunk obsolete tech you got?  Yamaha midi guitar and converter. Apparently it was quite expensive back in the day and had better tracking than systems designed for regular guitars. However this was accomplished by having every string be the same,a plain G, the worst string in a guitar. Felt horrible to play, picked up a lot of junk data that had to be cleaned up afterwards, huge rack unit for the conversion, massive propertiary cable etc etc. Flipped it for a small profit pretty soon.

Just a tip that shooting something with a vhs camera does not look anything like old movies played from a vhs.

Jerry Cotton posted:If the Amiga is just used to sequence and trigger poo poo and not actually produce the sounds, it might as well be any other system beefier than a Commodore 64. (I mean maybe you could do it on a stock 64 but it probably wouldn't be fun.) C64 is used in chiptunes a lot, it has an analog synth chip. Atari ST's were/are popular midi sequencers. Amiga could be used as a sampler aswel as a sequencer. W424 has a new favorite as of 12:17 on Oct 8, 2015 |

well why not posted:I really love looking up old versions of software I see all the time. Check out Ableton :  How about some vintage Cubase, I managed to get a short midi loop going on a emulator once out of boredom.

Fuzz1111 posted:One thing I miss about my old Nokia is that even if the phone was flat the alarm would work (no vibrate but it'd still work weeks after powering itself down). I had a Nokia that played the alarm randomly a couple of times after I dumped it in the closet when I got a new phone. Like weeks/months after being turned off, maybe it was getting lonely.

nocal posted:Meanwhile, here comes a phone call ON YOUR PHONE from someone important...and the loving thing just freezes entirely. I had cheap Sony Ericson briefly that after being on for a while just wouldn't receive calls, no notification, nothing. I got an email to the tune of "dude are you dead?" after being unreachable for a week or so. Another great feature was (it being a clam phone) that the upper cover was smaller than the base, making it hard to open with one hand and easy to drop /send flying trying to open it.

I still use firewire on my audio interface, had it for 10+ years and the pci adapter card has been in 3 different pc’s. Probably wont upgrade until it finally dies lol.
