How old are you?
I think the majority of forum members are 50+. Am I wrong? When I first joined up three years ago I assumed everybody would be a teenager. Cheap technology, Pushing the envelope. New musics. Why is this? Are we not hip?

I think Vanilla Forums are not of much interest to young people. Also young people (teens to twenties) tend to just pirate the best stuff around and are physicaly more suited to sit at desks/computers for a long time. I think a lot of them have dreams and ambitions of ‘making it’ too so they just emulate the heavier hitters as much as possible. I think more here are comfortable hobbiests.
I think most iOS music stuff in the store are toys, disposable temporary gimmicks, or retro nostalgia, so that is the perception. There are some cool things but really to push any envelope you will be on desktop I think. IOS stuff mostly just comes across as struggling clones. The sound libraries on iOS don’t sound nearly as good. Ok I’ll shut up.
322 in dog years.
In my case I’m here because I’ve been father one year ago and my instruments time(guitar and piano) has been drastically reduced. iOS apps are a good way of making music on the go and in between child naps.
Im 41.
If there was a large population of under 40's here then most of us probably wouldn't be.
Instagram
TikTok
YouTube
Twitch
...
If you want to get a sense for where technologicaly minded music yutes heads are at I find this podcast is great...

It is a whole other world and I am a dinosaur.
35👌
So you mean it's not just in youtube ads for desktop music plugins that people use the word 'fire' and 'sauce' like every ten seconds? I'm feeling old watching this too 😂. Interesting insight into another world though for sure....oh, i mean 'for real' 🤔👍😜. Well at least I can emoji with the best of them 😉✌️
33 but I was really active in the internet of oldish during the forum and shitty geocities web pages days.
59 going on 17. Life Lessons learnt: nil. Wisdom of the ages: nil. Embarrassment factor: large. Not hip. But might need one soon.
A hip for 10 likes?
Good god. I only got as far as reading the thumbnail titles and that was enough. I’m 52.
😂😂😂😂 You did at least pick up a sense of humour somewhere along the way
45 :-) Lol i thought i'm one of oldest people here and now i see it's mostly boomers forum
Just curious if there is somebody infinity old :-) Like you know, remembering universe inflationary phase and stuff like that ..
TikTok is more about IQ than age.. but your number fits, < 40
instagram and youtube are my favourite platforms, together with twitter.
All I hear is “Man, ‘know what I’m sayin’?” “Man, ‘know what I’m sayin’?” “Man, ‘know what I’m sayin’?” “Man, ‘know what I’m sayin’?” “Man, ‘know what I’m sayin’?”
Those videos could have been 1 minute long without the “Man, ‘know what I’m sayin’?” padding.
Yes, I’m old.
I have size 46 feet.
I'm 45 in hexadecimal.
@Svetlovska you make me laugh. Thank you.
Behold the demographic distribution of people who are still interested in music but can't be arsed to strut around with a guitar bag on their backs for sexual attention any more, oh and are also financially stable enough to afford expensive iPads. 🤷
I spend a lot of time on Twitter and watching Youtube over standard cable fair.
But I can only get about 60 minutes of interesting Youtube daily. Twitter serves
up a relevant "now" that most media fails to provide.
I did sign up for TikTok today and watching a dozen pet videos. It's helping me
decompress from 4 years of insane political news obsessing. Hopefully life
puts that in the rearview mirror.
3 weeks from my 5th decade.
(that means 40, dumbass)
Turning sixty in October...been in full grumpy old man mode for a while now...
Bingo club lol
I'll be 50 in about 11 months...
This. Ipad music is not cheap. You need disposable income, which younger people are less likely to have.
I wonder what percentage of people here make a living from music production, and what percentage have other jobs that pays for this hobby. I imagine as a professional I would have a bare minimum of apps as the tools of my trade. But as a hobbyist I have 25 of everything.
46 laps around the sun for me - hoping to finish a track by the time I‘m 50
@dendy, I am heading towards infinity, anyway. 73 in July.
Let me uncomfortably bare my soul here... in response to some of the sage comments above. I must be an anomaly... or I am way self deluded. I cannot think of myself as a hobbyist, dabbler, patzer , dilettante,
noodler... I can only think of myself as an artist. And as an artist I have learned one thing. Only my opinion of what I do matters... a less classy way of saying “To thine own self be true”.
I am not defined by my tools, palette, hardware, genre, demographic, chronology or socioeconomic status. Just the opposite. I define my tools and I defy my chronology, genre and socioeconomic status.
IMHO, it is, and always has been, fakery, snobbery, gimcrackery, insecurity, tomfoolery, hobnobery and a host of other berries to say art, even great art, requires the most sophisticated tools. Tell that to Michelangelo when he looked up at David’s giant penis. Or another David when he composed the Psalms with five strings and a nasally Jewboy voice.
It is what we squeeze out of our tools, not the corner some would like them to squeeze us into. My late great teacher, Connie Crothers, could wring soul from a woebegone upright... play right around the broken keys... force the detunity into delight. I have three iPads and a digital piano (well, hopefully a midi controller soon). In plain fact, I cannot afford to be a real hobbyist.
To all platitudes, generalizations, proclamations, decrees, edicts, rules, pronunciamentos about art and how it is really made by those on other social platforms who “know”... and even more so, what society holds aloft... I say bunk and a polite fuck you. (still, society produces great stuff... just not all great stuff is produced by “society”)
My friend, Dendy, wonders if the infinite is present amidst this forum. Usually I am Spartacus, but in each moment I really create I am lost in the infinite. Thoughtless, pain free, soaring, far beyond maxims, dictums and banal apothegms.
Wow. Sorry about that. Anyway, I’m damn old.
60 in June which is a major achievement considering my ‘mis-spent’ youth.
Well, listening to our collective output, even allowing for the really nice things that pop up every once in a while, I would risk the guess that the authors don't make a living out of it
You're so right about the "gear to production " ratio though
- no matter what area, from ios music to cycling, it usually goes up steeply with hobbyism - and years.
52 tomorrow. Happy to have made it this far
