Your phone definitely sounds deeper, but I wouldn't call it better because of the reverb. You might be able to get your headset sounding better if you mess around with an audio equalizer, maybe boosting the bass a bit to get it sounding closer to what your phone sounds like. It can be a bit of a process, but making lots of small changes and deciding whether each change makes it sound better or worse can really make a lot of difference with that sort of thing.

9:33 i am so glad that you manage to pick up on the futuristic vibe pearl was going for

Your phone audio sounds a little messier with the echo, but it is also highlighting the deeper tones in your voice more. I slightly prefer the cleaner audio from the headset, but it is missing some of the richness of your actual voice. Your phone is also probably much closer to the way you hear your voice in your head. It's hard to get good audio from a small microphone, but phone manufacturers put a lot of research and development into specifically capturing voices clearly. You could probably use an equalizer to get a similar tone from your headset, or you could look into different microphones and their dynamic ranges. Your headset mic may be designed to make your voice clearly understood even over a bad connection, which would put more focus on higher frequencies to make sure your consonants come through. There is so much depth to understanding microphones and how they give a particular tone or sound to what they are recording. I only know a little bit about it, but enough to know that it can get very, very deep.

Xisuma, I love the logical way you approach building. It makes it easy to follow your thoughts, and also as someone who is trying to improve my building it is an interesting perspective.

I gotta say, I LOVE how the Hermits are approaching the shopping district this season! You all make sure to incorporate the thing you're selling into the build, which leads to a lot of unexpected designs that most people would never consider (such as using rooted dirt and hay bales for a building roof, for example)! Its just so cool to see you guys make obscure blocks look good in such unique ways! I especially like how Gem used Birch Logs (one of the most hated logs that nobody ever uses) in her moss shop. :3

For audio, I would definitely get a standalone microphone like a Shure SM7B. Headset microphones are often worse in quality compared to phones, but phones pick up the echos from your wall since it is further away from your mouth. The sound comes across as more natural from your phone, but having the echo makes it worse for the listener, even though your voice is higher quality. TLDR: Don't use a phone since it adds a lot of echo. A standalone microphone is much better as it will have good audio quality and reduce the echo.

Honestly, I think that the ATR2100x would be plenty of a jump in audio quality. And X's voice is so calm we wouldn't really hear the difference between the two. The upside to the ATR being it can be used via USB. So no need to purchase extra equipment.

Cool to see you only use one hand. I'm also a guitarist but Ive done a lot more drumming so i alternate clicking between my two hands when i butterfly. So regarding sound, phone is better cause it has a wider frequency response. you can hear the lower parts of your voice, but their is a lot of echoing because of the phone.

At my home we truly thought you were trying to have bad audio all these years so it would sound like Doomguy. And the phone sounds really bad too because of the room reverb. Nope, the solution would be a high quality dynamic mic (not compressor) on a mounted boom arm. And some panels (or shelves of rough/soft things like books and plushes) to the left/right of the recording area.

And a very cool ROOTEDW (I can't see the exclamation mark before I see a W...) shop. I like that you're wanting to become a better builder this season. Trust me, it's happening and I'm excited to see it! Having all the blocks in your enderchest really helps out with that, I remember Etho saying something about his own enderchest. I should say though, just because Joel/Bdubs go super detailed with their builds it doesn't make them "better" than another builder. Obviously they're beautiful but that street is starting to blend together and become a mish-mash of every single block in the game. At least Stress' neon shop still stands out.

Watching the movement of your mouse to “talk” to Hypno is actually kinda cute. Like, when we don’t see that mouse movement, obviously you just see the screen movement and it makes sense because you would move your head when talking to people, but I think it’s really interesting to see how that mouse movement corresponding to the “talking” movement from the hand and mouse to the “head” of the character. It’s a strange translation of how you connect to people.

The shop looked a bit iffy at the start, but holy crap my expectations were shattered. Awesome build! I can't wait to see what you do with the copper shop and Wool St.

X, I love following your journey to becomming a better builder, and as such have a some notes about your shop. (All of it of course just imho). - First of, the ideas behind all of the elements in the build are great, they build lore, tell a story, and make you more invested and interested in the build. You love to see it. - That said the piglin armor stand is a confusing element because it's a piglin, which has nothing inherently to do with rooted dirt or your shop. But if it was, say, you (as with Doc in the wood shop), then it would suddenly have meaning: Here's X, who's discovered the magnificence of rooted dirt, he's holding it up for everyone to see, and selling it because he must share its wonder with the world. The piglin could of course still work, but it would need some sort of intergration/tie to the shop to do so. - The area of your build that could improve the most is the palette. The other builds in the area share one thing, a destinct bottom and top palette, whereas your build is only brick. This makes it a bit one note to look at. So I'd suggest experiment with replacing the top with a different block palette. The same goes for the top garden area, the floor is almost all rooted dirt, which sort of makes it lose its significance, and doesn't really display why rooted dirt can be such an effective block to use in your builds. And also the dock area, the rest of the build has delapedated and run down features, so the dock being in such a prestine condition is a bit of a clash, it's supposed to be used frequently, so tell that story! - Which bring us to the last note, details! Your build could use more of them. Of course, placing the right details in the right place is a tricky skill to master, so getting ideas and insight from the master builders on the server is highly encouraged. A few things I would do would be: Add ladders at the end of rails, maybe signs in between those ladders and/or trapdoors under them, so as to envelop the haybale roof more. Replace one or two of the fences in the wall with a sign, or maybe a trapdoor. Make the dock more busy with barrels, shipments of rooted dirt and other fun stuff I haven't come up with while writing this. And things that would make the roof more interesting to look at. Keep it up X, you're already a good builder, and with dedicated effort, you're gonna be a great one in no time. Also, headset audio is definetly better in this case, because your phone picks up ambient noise from your room due to it being further away from your mouth. For a true comparison, you would need your phone close to you, as though it were a mic. Also also, if you really want to get into making your audio sound better, you can always talk to your resident expert Impulse about it ;)

I loved the building segment. Brilliantly done, easy to follow and felt great to see each logical of your design!

I like the pergola! I play a private LAN with my daughters. I’m going to borrow your idea. ROOTED!😂

Seeing X's hand is like seeing something forbidden you're never supposed to see.

I think the headset sounds a lot better. As well, with the phone, it sounds like it's only in one ear or at least much more in one ear than the other while the headset is balanced. The phone audio is definitely louder, but with the tradeoff of quality.

I think the phone has a bit more clarity because it doesn't have a low-pass filter /de-esser and the echo it picks up from the room gives it some more presence. I personally prefer the headset mic, but it might help to boost the high-end a little bit and give it a very subtle slap-back echo (with a high-pass filter on the echo if you can). Love the shop btw! It fits in super well with the others, and I'm loving how close and detailed that area is! It really feels like a small-town downtown, Doc's monstrosity notwithstanding.

About the audio: your headset mic does a better job of isolating your voice. While your voice does sound better on your phone, it also sounds like it's picking up more reverb from your space. Overall I prefer the headset.

I love the mix of timelapse and cuts for progress in this video. It makes it feel as if the viewer is present at every stage but not dragging through the monotonous details. Well done, I have enjoyed it!

12:10 in the Netherlands a lot of older houses near a canal used those cranes on their houses to indeed lift goods from the water into the building. It’s actually very common for those kind of buildings to still have the cranes. If possible I’d say to try and see if you can do something similar! Just google canal house and you should get plenty of examples!

I love the headset audio more because it sounds more clear than the phone audio, and i feel like the phone audio captures more of the background noise

I love the pun youve made calling it Rooted and then having the mascot being a Piglin. And if you didnt realize its a joke, its because the process of pigs finding food in the ground is called Rooting. :D

Really love how deep you get into describing the other's build styles!

Fantastic build X, really enjoyed your thought process behind it

i actually love that stall setup for the wool, it's really cute

Right now I would say no to the phone but I think it's because it's giving that hollow room sound. Maybe some more sound absorption in the room is all it needs.

X!! this shop is so pretty! your building was already amazing but is definitely approving :DD

Classically trained bass player here: rotating your wrist in the sort of hammer-on/pull-off motion to alternate between 3 fingers is the way i max out my clicks, larger the muscle groups the faster and more precisely you can move :)

the rooted shop is beautiful! i love all the work you put into the environment around the shop, it's really a highlight of the market street now

This season has been best season yet. Love all the collaborative builds

I mean, you could build a crane for the rooted dirt shop! I think it'll look cool! Or maybe just the structure for it (cuz the servers feels like it has one to many cranes and docks XD)

You missed the chance to call the Rooted Dirt shop "Square Root" and use the √ symbol as a logo etc. but I like Rooted!

That build is really cool! Kind of makes me remember your season 8 base somehow. I look forward to more builds from you this season!

I just finished watching Cubs episode of making the shop, so you intro was quite literally a seamless transition!

The voice from your headset just feels natural now so I prefer your headset
