I'm well aware of the fact that voiceover is added in post, but imagining that Wade just walks into Cashies and starts yelling and beeing silly is just hilarious
I didn't realise it was added in post until he said he didn't know why he didn't get the Yoda of Yodas. Then I was impressed how well-timed his commentary was to the clips.
It's honestly pretty impressive how much emotion and spontaneity he manages to inject into his voiceovers. If he wanted to pretend it was live you'd honestly almost never know.
The cooked iPod is exactly why you should mark your ports so they're distinctly identifiable; whether it's chemical plumbing or electrical wiring, wrong-porting can have disastrous consequences.
@@surestar74 very true, genuinely it is often more important to have fun experimenting with things than to never break things, how else will you learn how to fix things and deal with problems
I miss the old Sony cabinets with the tinted glass door that locked with a magnet. Those old 4 piece vertical tower shelves that had separate units for AM/FM Radio Receiver, Tape Deck, 5 Disc CD Changer/Player and Tuner that came with 2 tall box speakers at the minimum, Dolby Surround Sound optional and extra $$$, all for the affordable price of $989.99 US in 1991 which is like a billion dollars adjusted for current inflation. Those things were a Batchelor pad must have if you wanted to sonically serenade a sexy siren successfully. Angels trumpets and devils trombones.
@@mainlinemitch And don’t forget that cool LCD display with the moving audio bars if you had a really premium model! 😜 (I inherited my Dad’s. Still glad I have it, even though it doesn’t get close to the use it once did because I rarely want to listen to music when I’m in the actual living room (maybe I should find a spot for it in the kitchen 😂).
You can see his rustiness showing through from the lack of routine videos, lol. He forgets to scream at the AAs, and forgets how to use the maracha cracker and blows up his iPod.
fun fact: that drift between the 2 decks combined is how the "flanger" effect could done in analog recording studios back in the day you record your audio you wish to apply the effect to to one tape. now, play it twice into a tape recorder, once normally, and once while applying slight pressure to the flange of the tape reel, causing it to slow down slightly. this creates the effect you hear from the audio drifting in and out of phase. this is the same thing that causes your bass to dissapear if you dont beatmatch well DJing.
Fun fact: On the topic of cassettes and tape types, EMI manufactured their own tape which for some reason lasted way longer than normal tape types. Apparently, when they do remixes and or remasters at Abbey Road Studios (Formally known as EMI Recording Studios), that involve tape, such as the 50th Anniversary Edition of Sgt. Peppers by The Beatles, they didn't need to bake any of the master tapes before playing them because they didn't have any moisture build up due to the formula that EMI used for their tape. I say master tapes because they had to bounce tracks down to multiple reels of tape since they only had 4-track in Abbey Road Studios in 1967.
@@Jerry_Freestylehe was probably happy to have caught that on camera, before realizing that it sucks balls and there is a reason we moved away from tapes
14:53 the tape being pulled out of the cassette by the boombox is a result of the rubber wheel that helps guide the tape from one reel to the other getting all old and gooey. rip.
@@grizzlydino iirc the problem is the chip in the GC component cable hasn't been reverse engineered/can't be. That's what makes it nigh impossible to make aftermarket cables for Gamecube.
That exact ViewSonic monitor is what I grew up gaming on circa 2012-2013. I used that monitor all the way up until 2022 when I upgraded to a 144hz panel. Seeing it in this video is so nostalgic, thank you.
Fun fact HDMI-1 is basically a smaller DVI connector, because the newest DVI standard at the time was common and supported 1080p. The logic behind this is for easy adaptability and because it was a well understood standard.
1:16 You'd actually be surprised, when I worked at cashies we sold more left handed clubs than we did normal ones! We'd constantly have people asking about them too
My dad was a leftie. Left handed sports equipment is SO expensive because not a lot of people are buying it (compared to right handed, at least). People are always trying to find it secondhand if they can because it’s so damn hard to find without paying your arm and leg (hmmm, left or right arm and leg? 😂).
1:25 that's an autoharp, they were in nearly every american classroom for a while. Each button mutes the appropriate strings for chords, and you strum the whole thing
We still have one! Could do with some new strings and felt pads, but it still plays alright! Doesn't have as many chords as the one in the video, though. Only a 2 row
Hubby’s family is extremely musical, so they had one (and now it’s his and he plays it at Renfaires for fun since it’s easier to take along than stuff that need tuning and careful carrying around). They also got really popular in Japan in the 70’s- his is about that old!
I literally screamed at 11:10. The Panasonic Power Blaster! My grandmother had that in her kitchen for ages! I totally forgot about it until now, but man, talk about hidden memories! Even just seeing the POWER BLASTER button and the weird green light in the CD tray made me nostalgic. It's been nearly a decade since I last saw it, so I have to wonder if it's still kicking all these years later...
I'm glad you're giving cassettes some love. There are bands still releasing music on tape, and I still adore them. My dad actually had a tape of random music from Australia on tape that I still jam from time to time; super cozy.
I brought an underseat sub woofer from my local cashies. It didn't work, pulled it apart and saw everything inside was fried, took it back and got a refund. 2 months later in the next town over, there was the same subwoofer in their cashies, you could see the screw driver marks on it where I had levered it open. Cashies had just sent to the next store for the next sucker.
RE: 'Ghetto Blasters', back in the 90's I had the JVC PC-W100 (Black, twin tape, 5 band EQ), I FREAKIN' LOVED IT! It STILL works today (my Dad uses it to listen to 'Snooze FM' while pottering around in his garage lol) 😏 😎🇬🇧
@@mrbisshieNot always! I have a DVI-D to HDMI wire and I was surprised when my monitor's speakers started working! Unless you meant no sound on his device, then I just look silly
A fun addon: The DP-DVI adapter is also passive due to DP++/dual-mode which lets DP output native HDMI/DVI signaling if given the right passive adapter. Most full-sized DP 1.1 and newer support this on modern systems, the only major limitation is that you only get up to single-link DVI or HDMI 1.4 resolutions. 1920x1200 over DVI or 4k30 over HDMI still covers a majority of use cases though, especially for a secondary or budget display option!
11:52 I looked up the album as soon as you showed it… Thank you so much for introducing me to Avishai Cohen, I love finding new artists be complete chance! Thank Mr. DankPods :)
🎵Oh, I found it at Cashies, (mate) Where you can find your dreams🎵 They've got wares and chairs and a bog downstairs Some clubs, some tubs, and hats for scrubs And out of date movies🎵 🎵So get on down to Cashies,(mate)🎵 You know it'll change your life🎵 So get off the floor, head out the door Forget eBay, they charge you more And lose your life at Cashies (mate)🎵
1:29 It's an autoharp. Those colourful buttons mute certain strings so you can strum the whole lot of strings and only get the chord corresponding to that button.
1:44 THEY'VE GOT A CASHIE AT THE CASHIES!!!!! I can't wait to listen to that distorted Scarlet Fire from the boombox through my DT770s. That's gotta sound epic.
Just makes me wish we had a cashies over here. There is basically no way to get old stuff short of knowing a guy who knows an old guy who's about to kick the bucket.
I find fun in it watching it from the next state over. in my area cashies are only for banking and don't have shops so I love seeing what its like when they are actual shops
Since you can't play both decks at once (the video is edited), that means Dank _can_ tell the difference just by listening to them one at a time. He could tell if someone is rushing or dragging, so to speak lol
FYI, that instrument with all the strings is an Autoharp. I kind of wonder if the StreamPod would still work with a sound dock (i.e., line-level audio out the 30-pin port).
I almost forgot about the line output from 30-pin! I used to have a cable (not a dock) that adapt 30-pin to 3.5mm, and I hooked it up to a headphone amp so I could use my DT 770 at my desk.
Ahhh Port Adelaide Maccas. I worked there the day it opened. Overnight shifts always brought out the characters. Many of whom got their drinking money from selling things at this very establishment.
Ah, Borklord brings back my experiences with Pokemon games as a kid. Focus EVERYTHING into my starter, and the rest of my party was just cannon fodder while I used revives to bring back my boi.
The Dreamcast has a native VGA cable. In fact it is compatible with every game even though some games check for a regular composite cable and refuse to start. I put a switch on my VGA cable to make it go between Composite and VGA. You keep it on AV until it does the check, then switch it to VGA and it works just fine. It's only 480p, but if you have a real monitor it looks amazing. That's CRT for you, makes everything look pretty.
Man going through public school band in Southern California I was a massive Parade band dork. We really go hard in the paint competing parades down here it’s a whole thing. I always live hearing you play anchors away for these. I’ve heard other old marches as well but it always brings a smile to my face as a band nerd and music teacher!
The thing with too many strings is an autoharp. You press the buttons and it makes chords for you and you just have to strum it. It’s really easy to play and a lot of fun.
15:05 doing very careful tests like 4 different times and then the one time you actually feel safe enough to do it for real, it all goes wrong.. i don't think there's been a more relatable thing.
It’s crazy that a Australian dude who started out messing with iPods has influenced me so much, I went from nothing to full audiophile collection in like 2 years.
I saw those very same golf clubs when I last visited the Port Cashies a year ago. Feels weird seeing them on here again. I can also proudly say I fondled the EQ sliders on that Sharp ghetto blaster, it was great fun.
I have a few 80s ghetto blasters too - the. Big Hitachis and Panasonics, those you picked up are beautiful - especially the Sharp. Gotta love the massive graphic equaliser. I’ve also got that exact Panasonic Power Blaster and it’s bigger Cobra brother with the motorised pop up screen! They’re so damn cool! When the two tapes playing Scarlet Fire went out of sync it sounded like you were playing it in a basketball court lol. Awesome video
unfortunate that you broke the drum stream ipod, but i was kinda wondering what you happen if you plugged an input into the output. very interesting result! R.I.P. drum stream ipod
That Yamaha Electone box just unlocked a memory for me. Had that box with the organ it was sold with back in the late 90s/early 00s. It's where I first learned the play keys until the electricals started going bad. Wild seeing it again
I remember when I went to Australia for a few weeks I had seen your channel for years and I loved it so when I got there a cashies was definitely on my list, thanks for making amazing content man
Any cash converters I've ever dared walked into has been a pit of despair selling only battered looking electric guitars, scratched TVs with made up brand names I've never heard of and 'party' music systems
The instument at 1:26 is called a Kanun. It is an Arabic instrument that is really common in Old Turkish Folk Music, Arabic Traditional Music, North African Music and West Africa. And it later on made appearances in Asia due to the Arabic Immigration Period. It has a really nice and relaxing tone to it. On the opposite end of the Pegs from what i know you have little pegs that allow you to pull the strings at a microtonal level. Middle Eastern, Turkish traditional music uses a lot of Microtonal stuff. Its cool if u ask me. And probably some Turkish or Arabic guy left it there after trying to learn. From what im seeing it also has a Trainer thingy on it that would most likely allow you to play chords or specific notes.
Its a chromaharp, very similar imo. The pegs are indeed to play chords as they muffle the sound of the strings that dont belong to them. I have one myself but not with that many strings. Its a really cool instrument!
@@lVlegabyte Yes, it's the same thing! Chromaharp is just a different name for it. Mine has the exact same sticker where it reads chromaharp tokai gakki so I dont know if the name is just as branding from that company.
Wasn’t expecting to think about Avishai Cohen today, when I was in college I was in our Jazz band and we tried to learn Pinzin Kinzin and it was a head spin with me on bass and my buddies on keys and drums
