they always used to use very old, very elaborate hardware that was always breaking down
I can't recall many doctor-related issues in live situations that would fit into that statement. Besides you still can get replacement for most components very cheap on the second hand market. I bought my Akai a few years ago for <100€ in top condition and there's still stuff available in very good condition (cd-rom/zip drives..) that should last another decade or two - everything pretty cheap since noone feel the need to dig into this kind of vintage technology.
Of course there's no doubt that software solutions are way more portable but tbh I don't know how they could manage to fill three huge 19inch rack trolly's with stuff you can easy fit into a third of these rack units - probably a bit showcase there

presumably this is also why nurse is pretty much a permanent fixture on stage with them these days... ?

The man himself said in a radio interview with a NZ station (back when the original NZ - OZ gigs were still on a few months ago) that they now use Cubase. Out of the mouths of, eh,... Never mind.

Roland TR 808...

It's a smorgasbord of vintage tech porn, alright. Speaking of which, yeah -clearly someone takes offence to the term '808' - maybe in machine code it's a highly offence remark about one's midi thru.
At the moment, I am mostly chilling to
De Te Fabula Narratur live.

Wouldn't mind at all, Being - thanks. Always found the Doc's pic on the Wiki to be a tad odd and menacing, and therefore pretty cool - but I guess it's time for a change, eh?
