I definitely slowed down after my initial frenzy. I have a ton of apps that will never get used. I’m pretty picky nowadays as I have a pretty solid workflow. So unless something can easily fit in that workflow or is unique enough to be entertaining on its own, I’m not gonna bother.
@u0421793 Thank you.
Actually, that's not exactly my policy. I don't limit myself from making new purchases. But once I do acquire a new app, I simply try to make it a rule to use it at least once. It can be a really simple 1-minute project, but at least it forces you to get to know the product, get your head around the interface, etc.
For example, last holiday season I took advantage of a number of FREE offers. I created this 1-minute track using only these new products. This satisfied my self-imposed edict intended to combat GANUS. (Gear Acquired But Never Used Syndrome).
Take a personal inventory of your desktop.. How many apps (or IAPs) that you've never even launched?! GANUS!
There's no way I could ever prevent myself from buying new apps until I used the last one I bought, but I do try to use everything I acquire at least once. Too much of a sucker for sales! Which reminds me -- I bought two apps this week I haven't used yet!
👊🏼You’re right about Patterning. I’ve amended my list.
I’m sure us audio guys brought that average up quite a bit
Android is probably still on £0
Yeh, it’s got to be pretty special or from a dev that’s on my auto-support list (Bram, FAC, etc) to warrant a purchase here.
So much quality lately has everything pretty much covered for my lightweight hobbyist needs.
Make more with what I have feels better right now.
I think if you have the money, buy stuff and see what sticks. Most things will get discarded pretty quickly but your core apps will continue to get plenty of attention. It depends a lot on how much time you have and what you want to do. If you only have an hour or two a day and want to make actual finished music, then far better to limit yourself to a handful of apps you love and stay away from this forum as muchtas possible. If you just like to pkay, discover and experiment, then this place and its hype frenzies are heaven, and much less damaging than the average addiction
I barely buy apps, and I barely see any new ones that give me Gas
Yep, I only buy from developers with cred I know and like. Done wasting $5 here, $7 there out of curiosity.
I’ve probably wasted as much money as I’ve spent over the past ~7 years, negating the value of the cheap iOS market.
I never thought I’d spend ten, twenty or thirty dollars on an app, yet I’ve never spent more on great apps as I have in the last year or so. Some really fantastically powerful music and production tools coming from developers these days.

Are you buying less apps these days? — Yes! I am. At the beginning (Summer 2019) I was buying a lot of them, Then I started to have more concrete targets, and, naturally this process slowed down. Now I'm chasing for very concrete things, and the overall Covid situation reduced my live gigging to zero/null, and reduced my motivation, so I don't need 2 buy everything new. Only after a very careful selection. Less pennies — less apps.
I am buying fewer Apps these days. Having less disposable income is a factor due to Covid.
But I'm also seeing fewer new Apps that interest me.
My plan is to start focusing on using the Apps I already own, and only seriously consider purchasing new Apps that are designed as composing tools (like Atom2 and LoopBud).
I already have lots of Apps that make sounds. Time to focus on composing music with those sounds I already have.
I’m buying less apps, and more records
But I think it’s just because I’ve already bought most of the apps, haha.
I realize I have too many apps I don’t use, and I really need to streamline it to just my essential apps.
But it’s so hard to delete
I bought a Yamaha keyboard that can be connected to my iPad via USB, that's why I started buying music apps. I bought mostly effects and I agree with other posters who aren't satisfied with the Eventide apps. I bought too many at once then had to admit to myself I don't like the sounds. Blackhole reverb and CrushStation stayed on my iPad, the rest I deleted.
I spent too much money and time trying to find a host I enjoy. What I realized is, for my creative workflow, the iPad makes a great sound module and an excellent effects processor for my keyboard. But composing full tracks, editing audio, and mixing on my iPad is too disjointed for me and I find the environment a little claustrophobic.
So yes, I had a flurry of app purchases, about 50% of them turned out to be apps I like and will use. I may pick up an app or two in the future but I'm feeling like I have had enough.
This drought of new releases has done wonders for my bank account.
Only thing I’ve bought in nearly a year is Deflemask, after getting into chiptunes from playing around on my Mister FPGA.
BeatCutter is definitely tempting, but it’s easier to resist after having gotten out of the habit of purchasing apps.
I drank much more coffee, lately.
Even beer!
Definitely buy less frequently because the “ooo I don’t have a Piano yet” phase has been passed. Plus I focused more on gear to go with all these apps, the biggest of which was a new IPad Air4. It naturally required me to get a new interface, usb hub, dongle, wires, and a Bass Guitar to plug into the new set up of course. And a new strap and picks.
Honestly there's not even been that many cool apps released this year...
...feels like the 'novelty has worn off' at least for a while or maybe I've become harder to impress or something?!
The irony is that when I miss something on iOS I take one look at Logic Pro and wonder...
...why do I even bother with DAWs on iOS?
My iPad & iPhone have more become 'instruments' rather than the 'center of the universe'
We'll have to wait and see if there will be any 'knock my socks off' kinda apps released this year...
...and now Logic or Live would not 'knock my socks off' since it's nothing new or unique, maybe on iOS but in a whole nope!
