Super rare sound card

This is possibly the rarest sound card of them all - the Yam Soundbuster for the Apple II. Wavetable sound in 1983! Just gotta watch that last C note...

loony toons forever baby!!

[@TechTimeTraveller]

@@georgehilty3561 It's just awesome watching them all over again as the adult audience they originally intended. :)

[@nyccollin]

Always been “Looney TUNES” now. Mandela Effect.

Ayy it's Tech Time Traveler. You're now a recurring part of my shorts teed.

Glad so many still get the reference!!

@@TechTimeTraveller I bet I wasn't the only one singing along with the wrong notes 🎶💥

[@epicredhead13]

I heard the first three notes and I wondered…

[@DeadBaron]

I wish Macs were still as user serviceable/moddable as the old Apples and Macintoshes. Now everything is soldered in, nothing is expandable, if something fails it becomes trash.

[@clumsyzombie3144]

I will never not feel ASMR when that disk drive boots up. There's a happy feeling in my heart ❤️

[@acidbath3226]

I remember playing oregon trail on these suckers back in Texas

[@snowlauncher79]

The machine gun sound the floppy drive made when it boots up. Brings back fond memories. 😊

[@kitsuneneko2567]

I so saw that coming.

[@SellamAbraham]

lolz yep

[@kagatosr]

Love it! 🎹💥🤣

[@CommodoreFan64]

I laughed way harder than I should have at this 😅😂😅👍

[@user-le8ul4nr5t]

I don't know if somebody told you this before, but when filming CRT's, you should EQ out audio around 15 KHz. Some CRT's, like the one shown in this video, make a very unpleasant high pitched screech. The pitch is high enough that you hear it less as you get older, but it can be very loud for younger people. otherwise it's a great video :-)

[@Bammer2001]

*Yosemite Sam:* Oh, you stupid rabbit! _Like this!!_

[@lemonhead162]

That's the kind of computers we had in high school.

[@space_twitch1926]

I wish I was there. I am young but I enjoy these videos, because it gives me a feeling of a fake nostalgia; like if I remembered it from a different life. Maybe I reincarnated lol but this is such an amazing feeling. It seemed so simple. Thank you.

[@TechTimeTraveller]

I feel that way about the mid 70s machines I play with.. although I was alive I was too young to have used them. It's a kind of retro nostalgia.

[@kvmoore1]

Hehehe. Nice! Luv the Loony Tunes piano prank too!!!

[@daniellabra4186]

So, we're all that old to recognize the computer and the cartoon... Good for us.

[@chrisbrown7362]

You are a wonderful hooman bean!

[@kelli217]

Well, it was either kaboom, or you were going to segue into "Come On, Eileen," by Dexey's Midnight Runners.

[@Miakel]

I knew it was in reference to that Bugs Bunny cartoon. I could hear Daffy yelling as soon as you made the mistake

[@daviddanser7801]

This reminds me of the old bugs Bunny cartoon when Daddy was trying to play a bad joke on bugs

[@NikoBellic069]

lol i knew i heard that tone somewhere lol

[@TechTimeTraveller]

I've always wondered if it was composed specifically for that cartoon or was borrowed for it.

[@uropig]

I love the cartoon reference!

[@albertoernestini6279]

Never seen that Sound Card! Thanks for sharing

[@duomaxwell6523]

Somehow Yosemite Sam knew you would boot up a piano program and play "Those Endearing Young Charms" and therefore rigged your Apple //e to blow up when you played the right chords.

[@TechTimeTraveller]

He knew I was not as smart as that rabbit.

[@laserhawk64]

I feel like I shouldn't need an explanation, but I need an explanation :(

[@TechTimeTraveller]

It's from a Looney Tunes sketch where Yosemite Sam tries to blow up Bugs Bunny by rigging a particular key on a piano. If you youtube search 'looney tunes exploding piano' it should come up.

[@russellhltn1396]

Don't feel bad. I don't know as too many younger people were exposed to Loony Tunes.

[@russellhltn1396]

@@TechTimeTraveller There's one video that shows the same gag being done in different cartoons. It was a bit of a meme for LT.

[@rivards1]

All of us of a certain age knew that BOOM was coming! (Incidentally, the actual song is called "Believe Me (If All Those Endearing Young Charms)"

[@TechTimeTraveller]

@@rivards1 I always wondered if it was a real song or something like some of the tunes they conjured up for One Froggy Evening.

[@rivards1]

@@TechTimeTraveller um, the tunes from One Foggy Evening were real and old too. Warner Bros had rights to a lot of songs.

[@TechTimeTraveller]

@rivards1 I read that one of them (I forget which), was actually their own creation.
