  • Im 25 wow not many in my age group, I’m surprised. Love this forum

  • Many happy returns of the day @FPC. The fifties are often the best yet.

  • edited April 2021

    Most iOS people I’ve run across are older. We’ve grown up with desktops, laptops, and DAWs.
    Frankly, I’m quite bored with them. Nothings really changed in the past 15+ years on that front. I can’t even remember the last “wow” moment...Ableton 1 was probably the most recent thing that flipped workflow and approach on its head that I can think of.

    Edit: This poll was by far the best poll posted to these forums. Awesome job, @linearlineman.

    @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.

    Very well said Lineman!

    instagram and youtube are my favourite platforms, together with twitter.

    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.

    That's it, you can turn off 80% of your brain capacity watching TikTok. Sometimes it's is exactly what one needs :-)))

    Pretty much precise description what i feel during creation. I think most of us :+1:

  • 50 here, old enough to have started out on Octamed. I thought I was one of the oldies here, imagining the rest of you as mid thirties and fresh faced. I’m definitely in the hobbyist category and took up iOS music because I spend all day working on a Mac and needed a creative outlet that wasn’t related to my work and wasn’t on the thing I use for work. Buying the apps and fiddling with new stuff is as much a part of the hobby as the actual creation. I want to be @LinearLineman when I grow up though.

  • “How old are you?” my fav album by Robin Gibb (which immediately reveals my age).

    Also old enough to remember we’ve already polled this once or twice ;)

  • Grown up with ZX-Spectrum and Amiga500.

  • 41 in summer.

  • 46 here
    76 when I go to work
    16 when making music on my IPad

  • 45 and still love to Funk around ! :D

  • The user and all related content has been deleted.
  • 58 next friday 😊

  • edited April 2021

    Well, so far 76% are above 50. Damn, it's sad to be right sometimes. 😳🤣🥳🤯☠️
    And happy upcoming birthday Mr @White and thanks for all you do!

    Edit... sorry, all nighter bleariness (working on a track)..l only 40% above fifty. That feels better.

  • edited April 2021

    36 this summer. Been firmly grounded in iOS for music for the last ten or eleven years though due to life circumstances (pre COVID 2 hour one way commute, dad of a now 4 and 8 year old). The days of sitting in front of a computer to work on music for hours are long, long gone (also, having a primarily computer based job doesn’t help...)

    iOS is a more interesting space anyway! Yeah there are some things that are maddening and you have to hold your breathe every year, but I think the juice is worth the squeeze ;)

  • UK state pension age later this year so more money to spend on apps I don’t really need 😊
    Like @cuscolima, playing on the IPad takes me right back to trying to play the guitar in my bedroom 50ish years ago... a great feeling!

  • 45 with over 20 years working in guitar shops. Just over 12 months in iOS music and every day blows my mind. I play a few instruments but I’ve heard them all a million times on records, at gigs etc. The same goes for chord progressions. 10 minutes on an iPad and I hear music that cannot be performed or even imagined. I play harp and appreciate the ancient beauty but I need to move forward and explore. Love it. Love the forum. It’s the best pub I’ve been to where I can sit and listen and learn.

    Sir, I hope you’re right. I’m just getting started here at 51.

    51 or 52? I can’t freakin remember!

    Lol I never know either.

  • just remember ... you do not quit playing because you grow old, you grow old because you quit playing

  • I'm 53. I used to watch music videos on MTV, listen to my favorite bands on the radio, and record my sad little arrangements of a knock off Strat and a Casio drum machine on a Tascam 4 track recorder to cassette. Now I watch music videos on YouTube, listen to my favorite bands on Spotify, and record my sad little arrangements of virtual guitars, synths, drums and weird noises on a 5th generation ipad mini. For the most part, it's all improvement. I do miss being able to go to concerts without taking out a second mortgage.
    I no longer have any illusion of making a living as a musician. I record my music because I can. Because no matter how old I get I'll never stop feeling the thrill of chasing down a happy accident and trying to turn it into something I want to listen to over and over, even if I'm the only person who enjoys it.

    My world in a nutshell-^^

    edited April 2021

    [edit, 36] 34, one of the young’uns here. I abandoned my saxophone and stopped playing music 10 years ago when I started my PhD, and discovered iPad music during quarantine. I decided I’d use the time to build a project in PD I’d been thinking about, a virtual monochord which I could tune using ratios and string-lengths taking from the 16C treatises I work on, and hear the differences between commas, schismas, minor whole tones etc. Can’t say I understand tuning or that I build a great patch, but it was a trip, exactly one year ago.

    It occurred to me I could use my iPad as a piano controller for the PD patch. That led into buying some apps, then a controller... then I discovered mirack and drambo and a whole world opened. Oh yeah and then this forum.

    I’m on my iPad almost every night, trying things out, listening, learning, getting lost. I’m never trying to finish a track but I’ve done it to learn the process. Synthesizers were an unreachable dream when I was younger, and having them at my fingertips is just something beyond all dreams. Mostly it’s an escape from the horrid life of academic precarity. Not having the pressure to produce something is liberating, not sure if that’s the definition of a hobby.

    It is a whole other world and I am a dinosaur.

    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 😉✌️

    It’s pronounced ‘freal’ but your emojis are spot on.

    Good god. I only got as far as reading the thumbnail titles and that was enough. I’m 52.

    Yah, sometimes I gots to hold my breath and tap but when I break through the superficial stuff there is genuine gold in here. Some pretty creative people who have a whole different landscape to contend with than anything I have had to work in, I do find it like anthropology in a parallel dimension, freal.
