Redundant technology
Music on vinyl records, mobile phones the size of house bricks and pornography printed on paper. What hideously out of date stuff do you still use?
Thanks to boozehound for the suggestion

my house is rammed full of the stuff
i drive a scabby old 2cv i've had for ages that i gave fifty quid for.
i also ride a forty five year old vespa 150 super.
casette tapes and mini discs are mrs amoebas prefered recording medium, so we have hundreds of the things everywhere, i bought her a shiny new zoom digital field recorder but she fucking hates it.
we have huge mixing desk and an old fosdex d 80 multitrack.
a roland sh1 synth, that no longer works, but i refuse to throw out and a bunch of old amps and speakers that will never fly again.
a realy massive old episcope projector like the ones they used to have at school.
games wise there is an amiga 1200, an original nintendo entertaiment system with the indiana jones game bundle, a mega drive with sonic built in, all in the original boxes ready to go.

SH2 manual close enough?
manuals.fdiskc.com/tree/Roland/
Can't be that different, surely. IIRC it was the same but with another oscillator.

cool
there is an issue with the chassis, a spacer or somthing makes it tempremental when it did work.
birmingham electronica outfit plone used it for ages, it apeared in a peel session once.
a guy called tom i know had a crack at getting it going but i fear he may have cacked it up beyond repair.
