Last week we showed you a little look at our new recording room setup. This week we give you a look into Jordan setting up the sound absorbtion panels in the room while the rest of us sit around criticizing him and goofing around.

[@cypressketch]

i just watched a 20 minute video of three guys putting up sound foam... best 20 minutes of my life

[@True.Light.]

The sound foam will greatly improve the sound quality when you guys are killing peop- I mean playing video games in that room.

[@Wittacon]

Why not both!? Muahahha.....I mean I agree....

[@gabesomers7265]

That's what I use it for! Playing games Yeah Games...

[@Wittacon]

***** "games"

[@joesalerno64]

what exactly is the foam for? Less echo? Quieter from outside the room?

[@ipodguy123g]

Joe Salerno Both of those things

[@NinjaTroll21]

lol these guys are the only people who can talk about the most random things and I still remain intrigued and watch a 20 minute video about spraying adhesive and putting sound foam on a wall.

[@Hendlton]

Aleks should have walked in and just yelled "You did it totally fucking wrong!!!"

[@xMCTheLazeboyx]

I think he seemed more sad about wasting hours learning how to do it, then Kootra seemingly one-shots it..

[@Hendlton]

MCTheLazeboy Gaming I guess but still he should have yelled that as a bit of a revenge.

[@uhejnjd]

He should of walked in and said "No you need to make them go with each other not against. It won't work that way" Then they freak out since they did it wrong.

[@xMCTheLazeboyx]

***** Nah. His depression makes this video 10/10.

[@DarkDemon259]

Seamus being excited about the rain made me really happy for no obvious reason... He's so adorable. -NoHomoJKFullHomo-

[@feedingworms]

Aleks actually approved of something jordan did XD

[@QrayzHD]

Anyone that can grab the attention of hundred of thousands of people deserves to be massively rewarded, same goes for sales professionals if you can make a name for yourself in any industry and get a large amount of money for it then you deserve it.

[@maxmiliandealy9839]

I think they'd tear the foam off the wall scrape the remaining bits and repaint the surface

[@NecroDetonadosBR]

Hell, I miss these times :(.

[@IIIIScout]

Thats the best video of someone spraying a wall and placing squares on it I've seen in a long time!

[@Divionist]

I'm a sound foam installer efficiency installing installer for the sound of foam and I must say that Jordan has done a great work efficiently installing the foam sound. "11/10" - Professional Sound Foam installer of efficiently installing foam of efficient sound installer.

fruitlogic same here. its funny because i dont really like going outside to just chill when it is sunny, i do that when it rains. the sound relaxes me completely and the smell dont get me started on the smell. i like the smell so much that i have a candle that smells like rain and it just fills my room.

[@WallyZeus]

I could listen to Seamus's sarcasm all day...

[@rasekage16]

These guys are installing sound foam to more efficiently play video games, and that's their job, which they receive a pretty decently size paycheck for. Meanwhile, I move big ass boxes through a Sears warehouse and help people put fridges and whatnot in their car so that I can just barely avoid starvation. Fml. PS: I don't fault the creatures for this nor do I find anything wrong with this being their job, I'm just annoyed at life.

[@killkarma361]

You don't seem to grasp the concept of being a youtuber/twitch streamer, their jobs are EXTREMELY hard, they have to do videos for their own channel, edit, render and upload those while at the same time pulling their weight for the hub whilst also remembering to stream when they need to and making sure the streaming equipment is set up properly so they can be on time. All within the span of one week or less, and it's like that week after week with no breaks. So I wouldn't be surprised if what they do requires more work than what you do.

[@Flamecycle100]

killkarma361 Plus they don't have much job security, it's going a bit far saying that they're doing more work than him.

[@paulvroeg]

killkarma361 Get a reality check kid, it's not extremely hard. But then again I don't consider internet jobs to be actual jobs. I have way more respect for someone like rasekage16

[@Flamecycle100]

***** People also overlook that a single week of recording can last many more weeks in content.

[@rasekage16]

killkarma361 Clearly you know nothing about what a real job is. You really think recording yourself playing video games, screwing around in skits, and going to the movies for hours on end, and then occupying yourself for a few hours while your videos render and upload themselves is hard? The only part of that process that isn't equivalent to what teenagers do in their free time is the editing process, which can't possibly take more than an hour or two out of their day. If their efficient at all, they probably do that while things are rendering and uploading anyway. Do you really think taking ten minutes to set up for a stream is any kind of physical labor, or that they even need breaks when all they're doing is playing video games? Last time I checked, that's what people do at home when they're relaxing, in which case they might as well be on break all the time. And forget that "week after week" crap. I work day after day with barely any days off. Have any one of the creatures work a 4 hour shift at my job while I sit in their office and stream Dark Souls 2 for the same length of time. Guarantee any of them will agree a manual labor job is infinitely more difficult.

[@SomeGingerr]

Seamus is my favorite because we are similar in so many ways. We are both sarcastic, both from Chicago, AND we both LOVE the rain!!!!

[@zedman986]

re-watching all creature hub diy videos

[@dudderzdude95]

Kootra actually did an alright job. I did a course in music technology and i learnt all about acoustics and all about acoustic treatment. The point of it is to reduce the amount of reverb or "echo" as much as possible and to do this you need to place the most amount of foam where you sound will be hitting the source, so behind the tv is probably perfect for the voices of the creatures but you'd also want some on the wall in front of the TV to to stop any sound which is then bounced back onto said wall and also to stop any loud sound coming from the TV it's self (if they're using headphones it shouldn't matter too much though). Other than that, good job! :D

[@Agbayani993]

They're doing all this office work and then they're gonna move out in like, a year or two or so? Can't they just keep renewing their office contract thing so they can keep their office stuff?

[@mudkipjuice]

why would they move out....

[@Ptoman5]

raggedy-smith well Jordan said int he video when they leave it will be someone elses problem to remove off the walls. Im sure their lease ends one day but if they are allowed to renew, I dont know

[@RedStar_N7]

raggedy-smith Same reason they moved out of the creature house. The lease expired.

Its these types of videos were they do things around the office that are amazing.

[@AmateurRatedGaming]

So seeing as Kootra isnt always the most reliable person for demonstrations or how to's (although its rather funny), I want to sound proof my room in my new house so i can record my Lets Plays and livestreams... Anybody hear have any recommendations on what products to use or how to actually set it up?? Room would be 12x11-ish

[@leeweaver1277]

On how to koots actually did good that was pretty much the best way to do it cross not in line for products just look up sound obsorbant foam and you'll find some

[@AmateurRatedGaming]

lee weaver the only reason i question his how to's was because of the first wall mount video lol heck, i was not too dern sure about the second one either lol but thanks for the feedback... i appreciate it!

[@kurtfin11037]

You can't really get much better than the checkered pattern.

[@AmateurRatedGaming]

Kurt Finlayson So i would basically just put all the pads behind my microphone setup and I'm good? Anywhere else i should put some, cause the room is rather big (at least compared to the storage closet)

[@kurtfin11037]

CorrosiveBullet Pretty much, I would only do the door if it was really noisy in or outside of your house a lot.

[@connorcharlton6282]

No its not its the old storage room. They mentioned it in a previous video

[@jennarosiemarie8971]

[@vinylbuff1515]

Did the foam end up working? I wanna get some but I dunno if its worth it

Rain is always so calming. When it isnt extreme of course...

[@EmBeeSeven]

This pains me, even though it is only about $200 of foam, they do are not applying it properly. The point of the foam is to remove acoustic reflections, which could have been done with half the amount of foam easily.
