That link is to the Australian store so the price is in AUD. In USD, it's $20 I think
Supposedly the new 10.5 ipad has 4GB RAM. I think we were all wondering how much.
Ah right! Yeah, £20 here in the UK.
I use it on the Mac and PC on a daily basis, and while it has a few niggles in the way it works (compared to Photoshop which I've been using since it came out) it's unsurpassed for the price. I've got loads of graphic and photo apps on the iPad already, but this is the ultimate, and the compatibility with desktop versions is very handy.
Just waiting to see if it's ok with Air 2's, as there are some negative reviews on the store regarding older device compatibility, and I'll need to make some room for the 1.2gb file!
Hehe, so weird. This should be like the news of the year but I just sense a bunch of weary skeptical raised eyebrows going 'Uh huh... sure...'
Yup. Seeya in a couple years 'files'.
Wasn’t specifically thinking about Derrida, but been discussing similar things about digital musicking in my recent academic research.
For instance, been engaging with the ways people label “virtual instruments” with reference to the field of organology (the study and classification of musical instruments). As a whole, the musicking part of Maker Culture has a lot to do with what Lévi-Strauss called «bricolage», which goes a long way in the navigation between the fluidity of indeterminate objects and the shapefulness of a classifying mind.
In anthro, we derive a lot of significance from classification systems, from typologies to folksonomies. My reason for using pharmacology as an example is a recent discussion with an ethnopharmacologist. Part of the field is about the ways people organize substances in terms of their properties and potency.
Now, if we think of synths as substances…
Terrific. These are definitely some of my lifelong pursuits. I got my first serious anthropology dosage via Marcel Mauss' The Gift, which was from reading Derrida's The Gift of Death. Also about object exchange. The Gift was fabulously dense. I remember having a little library copy and reading it Summer of 2000 in Chicago. I actually passed up seeing Ravi Shankar to stay home with that book. Seems matters of matter have percolated up, New Materialism and the like. Probably just a temporary bulwark - if not an indication that virtual isn't material, but what of the difference if it already holds sway in musical, cultural theatres? I'm also big fan of typology - Mcluhan's Gutenberg Galaxy make quite an impact on me, and I love the writing style of him and contemporaries like, Roland Barthes, Northrop Frye. Most all them wrote directly on music too! So I've been enjoying revisiting.
Yep, it's nice to see more developers of such calibre starting to take iOS more seriously
They're good devs too, I've had regular free updates of Designer and Photo desktop versions, so I'm confident they'll provide excellent support for the iOS version.
Indeed. I used to be hardcore Adobe user (using Photoshop since 2.0) but I recently switched to Affinity Photo and Affinity Designer, and I have not regretted the switch at all. There are some features I'm missing (fixed ratio selections, if you're listening!) but overall it's amazing value for money. I almost feel guilty downloading the free updates.
Yeah me too, I've spent thousands with Adobe over the last 25 years. But because I held off updating my last purchases of Photoshop and Illustrator for years, when I got them the Affinity versions had more features than my Adobe software, so apart from a few niggles they're better than what I was using before! They also provide an excellent range of video tutorials.
Really looking forward to Affinity Publisher, so I can finally retire my elderly Quark xPress.
Have you bought the iPad version of Photo? I'm keen to know how it performs on an Air 2, I've posted a query on their forum but no replies yet.
I was tempted because of how much I like the Mac version, but I decided I had no compelling use cases for it. A quick touchup with Snapseed is usually more than sufficient for what I use my iPads for.
I was thinking the same, but I've got the PC and Mac versions of Designer and Photo...and I'm a bit of a completist!
I tend to keep the iPad for music stuff only, though I use a lot of photo apps on the iPhone. What's missing on my devices though is a photo app that optimises/resizes before exporting - Snapseed has presets, and I don't get in with Pixelmator, so having full control over custom export options could be really useful. And you can export as .pdf's as well.
Then again it might sit in my Photo app folder with the others, neglected while I muck about with synths...
Someone's just told me they saw my daughter (she's got music on the Store, so maybe it was a demo of that) on one of the WWDC screenshots, which is a bit weird. So now I'm going to have to hunt down a video of it and go through the thing until I find it...
big news for iOS music.
Caught this on the WWDC calendar:
Cool man, that is wild, do share!
Interesting, they say you'll be able to delete apps retaining documents and other data

Here's a good video showing lots of improvements in iOS 11: https://9to5mac.com/2017/06/07/ios-11-whats-new-hands-on-100-features-video/

Agreed. In my case, you lost me with the possessive "mom's" rather than the simple plural "moms," but that's my own grammatical-OCD cross to bear...
Also — sigh — millennials has two n's. Sorry, can't help it.
But let me just quickly add that you're both right despite my nerd-linguistic tendencies!
You know what name the nerdiest of linguists use for those tendencies?
@ExAsperis99 LOL, I love it...I try to keep my grammatical acumen razor sharp but I confess I sometimes can't remember all the variables. I remember using that Blue Book of Grammar when I went back to school for awhile and I OCD'd with it on every paper, checking everything.
Seriously I wasn't trying to slam @8BitSamurai or anyone. One of the coldest days in a person's life is when they realize they've started saying "In my day...", "Back in the day...", etc. and start acting similar to their parents. I know I do it sometimes.
Apple do cater to 18-35's and middle class Moms while treating their niche market's (like musicians/music producers) often as an afterthought.

Haha don't worry man it's all good. You're a Gen-Xer so it's not like you ruined the economy like the boomers did
Yes, guilty. But I'm in recovery. But I'm making progress.
Worth mentioning...
