I'm looking forward to Lyle's Foam Adventure
I want a series with episode titles like Foaming at the Mouth, Roamin' for a Foamin', Foam Money Foam Bitches and many more
What do you think of this kind of video? Probably not going to go out of my way to make videos like these, but should I shoot em real quick when the opportunity arises? Or should I stop it right now? Let me know!
yes if they are this good of quality!
I certainly don't think little stuff like this can hurt.
They're very helpful and informative. So yeah pop them if you got'em.
I loved this a lot 🤙
I did not need to watch this video, but I watched it all, I enjoyed it. I was brushing my teeth and flossing at the time. Not the dance.
Man I'm sure glad dad taught me this, I don't think I woulda figured it out on my own. It makes me so happy to know dad cares about me
Pro tip: you can put the painters tape with the non sticking side onto the double sided tape bofore putting it on the wall and then just put the entire thing onto the wall.
This is EXACTLY what I did for my foam. It works perfectly and is great if you need something less permanent. You could even just stick the painter's tape to the double sided tape and then slap it on the wall. Works like a charm
came for the knowledge, stayed for the humor. Thank you.
looks neat, tho careful with painter's tape stuck a long time : the glue turns to goop and leaves a sticky mess
Pro-tip for taking off adhesive without damage!
Take a blow-drying and use it on the adhesive, and warm the *shit* outta it. Hot adhesive loses all of its stickiness and comes off super easily. I do this all the time on video games that have stickers on the labels to avoid damage.
true but extremely time consuming!
As long as the footage is at a good enough resolution and the audio quality stays top tier, these kinds of videos would be good.
As somebody who attached his foam to hardboard and then attached that to the wall with command strips I wish I'd known this trick before hand. Cool video in general, would love a follow up that's more of a general overview of like how to treat a room
This is good advice for hanging anything on the walls that tape can hold.
Wow, I seriously did not think of this. There goes my paint.
Hearing Lyle say "boop" was not something I ever expected in life
"if you are viewing this I'm assuming you are renting" How accurate!! 😅😅
I always love to hear about your foamy exploits Lyle.
Keep up the great work.
Painter’s tape!!! Thnx a lot 4 sharing!
This is the best tutorial I’ve see in months
Masking tape! Brilliant! I've already put four tiny holes in my wall with drywall hooks and the foam just hangs off and looks ugly while tearing up the foam. Will do this right away!
Wow, I can’t believe I’ve had these materials for so long and never once thought to do this.
This is a great tutorial, I live with my dad so I don't really like the idea of damaging the walls in general so this is great advice.
Really it seems like pretty good advice for anything lightweight that needs to be mounted.
Fun tip when playing with tape on anything, use an old PLASTIC giftcard to really press the tape against the surface to ensure no air bubbles and a strong bond. Plastic gift cards also make great scrapers, for pots, stickers on glass, whatever.
I'm FOAMing at the mouth with excitement for more FOAM content
This is super helpful, definitely saving the video when I build a studio! Thanks Lyle🤘
Oh frick, never thought of using t-pins for the normal foam. Finally something easier. Big McThankies!
Super helpful, I’ve been resigned to a closet for decent sound
Lile techular tippers. Need that audio magic
I watched this video when you first posted it and I have returned as I shall soon be renting an apartment and, while I won't be setting up a studio, I do intend to do some soundproofing simply because I often play games and watch television late at night and the place has a fairly strict sound policy.
Command Strips worked well for me.
Awesome idea, about to start foaming my home office where I deliver online training courses from, thanks mate.
Enjoyed the video thank you sir for the idea works great for the Bass Traps i put up.
Scary hovering cubes :0
This is really helpful brah
That is wildly useful. Thanks Dad does this mean your home from the cigarette store and will stay for a while?
Show us how you mix your voiceover audio please for the love of god give us the goods
1:53 Important. Make sure to go "boop" or you will make it harder on yourself.
Super handy, thanks
Command strips also works, expensive but works
For a solid bond with the foam and the tape, try scoring the area on the foam with a razor or roughing up the area with a piece of sandpaper (dremel tool would be solid). My experience with this method is for prop building with foam and not for sound so I don't know if it would affect the properties of the foam for studio purposes or not.
The glue in painter's tape will perish given enough time (maybe a year or two). You will find that it either rips the paint off your wall in the end, or it just falls off.
I would recommend making a wood panel, attaching the foam to it and then standing it up in the room if you're a renter or something. You can make it look relatively decorative.
Alternatively, devote your life to politics, and push for making property no longer an investment asset but instead a human right, so maybe someday the children of your children can just afford a robohouse and attach cyberfoam to their crypto-plaster walls as they please without worrying about their hyperdeposit.
But, like, whichever is easiest for you.
Sicc, good thing i didnt gorrila glue my wall quite yet.
Really helped me a lot, thanks for the advice Lyle :)
Well, It just came off after 5 days but probably because of the cheap painter tape I used to apply it to the wall. Going to retry without relying on budget tape but I still appreciate the advice.
I am here exclusively for the foam
Thanks for the advice I really appreciate it!
This is great
does those work in absorbing 60-150hz ?
i like your noodlin videos, they inspire me to play more often. uhh do you have any suggestions on websites that sell music stuff orr websites that have good music sheets, i use songsterr and gtab and check reverb once in a while i only recently heard of reverb though. maybe like suggested techniques or useful ways to hammer in muscle memory?
Pleeeeeaze do a guitar video of some sort idc what it is I just love guitars lol
How is this holding up?
how much does that cube weigh?
I see we've upgraded from Orb to Cube.
Where was the promised follow-up videos on foam or some shit, noise man?
come back again
>:Z
Oh my god actually thank you, my acoustic foam is acting up and keeps on falling down
Nifty!
How about egg cartons??
When will dad post more audio-themed content?

Cubes
couldn't you just stick the painters tape to the foam first? then you dont need to measure or worry about missing
lol it's like minecraft i get it
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!
those bass trips are not working lol,
lyle.
my pinky game sucks balls
I'm glad we're getting some foam content. I started foaming at the mouth when you showed us the foam in your studio tour and this wasn't quite enough to satisfy my foam cravings. Keep up the great work Lyle.
Oh also this video kind of blew my mind and made me realize I could probably even use this method for other stuff too. Legitimately good advice.
Literally, he just uploaded a video 3 weeks ago after posting this one 11 months ago….
I'm surprised at how genuinely helpful most of your advice is, I kinda expected this channel to be a bit of a goof-around and make music type of deal, but the videos so far have been really great for people like me who are very interested in voiceover/voiceacting, music production, video editing and the like. Thanks Uncle Lyle!

my personal experience the double tape always fail on the foam side rather than the wall side.
You posted this a year ago, are the foam blocks still up?
actually very informative
😭😭💀 0:38
Damn, what the hell. I started a shitty Metal channel a year ago, then discovered OneyPlays a few months ago, then tried using Pro UA-cam channels to learn but found a lot of it goes over my head, then discovered that Lyle is making audio content for dumbasses like me. It's like it's.. fate. Keep it up dude, love the content so far.
I don't like pins, or glues. This is the best way to get this job done.
lyle >:/
come back
thanks dad, this is a life lesson i can actually use
Foam does not do much for bass traps at all. You need something with mass to absorb the waves and won't resonate on the wall. Fiberglass is like the minimum you should use for bass traps.
Well I fucked up 😂 painters tape. I never planned on getting my security deposits back 🎉
NICE. I'm making a poor man's table top vocal isolation station out of cardboard. I plan on adhering 11"x11" cardboard tiles on the back of each acoustic tile, but then putting velcro on the back of the cardboard tile so the tiles are modular. Hope that makes enough sense.
My question is, what do you recommend using to attach the cardboard "tiles" to the back of the foam acoustic tiles?
personally (for the corner blocks), I cut and hot glued coroplast to the top of the foam. Then, I used 2 command strips to stick the coroplast to the wall. I then put T pins on the bottom on an angle. My foam has been up for about a year now.
My issue with your method is that when you go to take the double-sided tape off the foam (when you move), you're gonna take some of the foam with it. With my method (stolen from EXOcontralto), you just replace the command strips on the coroplast.
I also used this method (command strips on coroplast on the surface) to attach foam to my door with no damage.
Lyle's Foam Acoustic emporium, Coming to a Channel Near you!
What the actual fuck, I was literally just thinking to look up how to make DIY bass traps after watching that Dan Worrall video "The Perfect Room" (anyone looking for genius level audio engineering advice, check out his channel and his lovely English voice), and in true "the universe is chaos except when it's always not" style, the guy who hooks me up with the goods is my man Lyle fucking Rath
I come here after inappropriately showering you with praise on a Jason Richardson video because I've decided I'm sick of reining in my ADHD positivity rants, and I come away with exactly the method I've been hoping some UA-cam dweeb would show me how to do it - I even have a ton of those exact foam squares just lying around for fucks sake!
Are you real? Is this proof everything is a simulation? Do you know my dad or something and this is all some elaborate prank to tickle my mind pickle in the weirdest, most specific ways imaginable?
Whatever man you kick ass and I don't care who sees me profusely express that to you haha - keep on doing you man, this channel is a great idea and I can't wait to see it grow - peace!
People who are afraid to miss these videos suffer from serious FOAMO
I'm not bothering with painters tape is it's my studio. Paint is new but these panels will be there a very long time. My problem is the tape not sticking to the bass traps. Fibreboard it works fine with just tape.
I used gorilla double side carpet tape on the foam but I spray foamed it to the tape stays on the foam
Then spray glued the tape onto the foam
I would NOT recomend painter's tape! It's only made to sit a couple of days MAX. It's glue is gonna be a pain in the ass to get off after it's been sitting for a while
Honestly I could use a video running down effects - reverb, treble, etc. Just got an interface but have no idea how to use it make the cool rock noises
Foam is worthless for low and low-mid frequencies.
So good old lylebert has graduated from orbs to cubes? How the times have turned
You're a genius. Thanks.
i have enough guile to travel a mile for lyle,niall, and kyle
This is legitimately amazing advice and I wouldn't have considered doing it like this. Thanks Lyle :)
Love the idea. And thanks for the laughs lol.
Playing foam Minecraft
Great vid Lyle! Looking forward to more vids on this channel man!
Welllll this aged poorly...
You just reminded me to turn on notifications
Killed my daughter 🤣🤣🤣
DILYLE
lmao
this is fuckin awesome
Boop
Good, now tell me how they work
