    Considering there’s more than a few hip cats in this forum, how about Audiocats?

    I like this one.
    Reminds me of the jazz scenes.

    Whatever the name is I think it needs to convey a focus on mobile, that also includes other areas of music making. I think it’s important to keep the vibe and focus of the forum consistent through the transition. Not to say other areas wouldn’t be welcome over time, but at its core, this amazing space has been mostly about mobile music making, a willingness of the members to help/share/contribute, and a great repository of music knowledge and information both in past threads and in real time.

    Agreed.

    Update. nevermind this, I commented without reading the whole first post, duh.

    Lolololol

    Easily done. ;)

    I quite like this one as well however as mentioned earlier it could be a bit long.

    Damn.

    The Audioc.at's got there first.

    Trying some other angles on 'music' or 'audio'...

    Haha, Tapping Glass. Reminds me of touching cloth

    Always been one of my favourite euphemisms and get a comedy vote simply for that

    Loopy Pro - even though I don’t use it I wouldn’t mind being called a professional nutcase. The “….from Loopy Pro” subtitle would offend no one and give you brand recognition

    Being a guitarist, the other forum I use a lot is The Gear Page which is universally referred to as TGP
    So, kinda boring but I’ll chip in -

    Mobile Audio Buffs (MAB)

    Edit. below @tahiche suggests Audio Buzz which I like better so-

    Mobile Audio Buzz (MAD)

    My last thought-
    Mobile Audio Delinquents (MAD)

    Bleep Collective is good.

    The Synth Pad

    The Swipe

    TuneTap Forum.

    Soundswiper.

    Sound swipe forum.

    The Glass Harp.

    Glassworks

    Keep taking the tablets

    Music Under Glass

    Short Bus

    The Sofa Studio

    I also like Tapping Glass/TheTappingGlass a lot. An accurate description, but also mysterious.

    I agree that the problem with AudioBuffs is that it sounds like it is going to be extolling the virtues of gold plated speaker cables and hand built direct drive turntables.

  • Joking aside I'm actually thinking about going to the gym again to get "buff". ;)

    Yeah. I’m always thinking about it too. Thinking about it sure beats doing it. :)

    I think if the forum doesn’t use Tapping Glass/TheTG we’ll see an app use it soon. As @Svetlovska says, both accurate and mysterious, a modern day scrying mirror

  • Yes, Tapping Glass does have a feeling of musicality to it. That's my favorite so far.

  • Or GlassTappers?

  • @Michael said:
    In case I wasn't clear, by the way:

    Do you know what they have planned for it? Still using it every day . Thanks

    Exactly: John Dee’s obsidian scrying stone was precisely the image I had in mind for it. A black mirror, indeed! :)

  • Just call it 'noiseappjunkies.co' :sunglasses:

    I do feel this is the right to retire from constant forum visits...
    ...the forum visits has become more addicting than actually using the apps.

    Thanks to LogicPro for iPad I've not bought nearly as many apps as I used to and my wallet really thanks me for that...

    That does it, I’m not a musician or a producer or a programmer or the like, I’m a Glass Tapper🤣

    Hello!

    I have some big news: Audiobus is going to a new home. Francesco and Andrea are developers and musicians who are keen to pursue Audiobus’ further potential, keep it updated and enhance the experience for users old and new – and unlike me, they have the resources to do so! They’re full of ideas and energy, and I am confident that Audiobus will be in good hands.

    We all recognise that the Audiobus forum has evolved well beyond being just the forum supporting Audiobus, and so it isn’t going to be a part of the move: it will remain with me, and it won’t change.

    But it needs a new name!

    Some possibilities; do feel free to suggest your own (those who suggest Forum McForumface will receive dead fish in the mail 😄):

    • Touch Music Community
    • Touch Music Forum
    • Mobile Music Community
    • Mobile Music Forum
    • Mobile Studio Society
    • Audio Buffs Forum (started as a joke but has gained some traction!)

    I'm leaning away from including 'iOS' in the name as that may have implications with stepping on Apple's branding; it'd suck to get Cease And Desist letters.

    Thoughts? I’d like to begin the transition over the next week or so.

    With love,
    Michael

    “Mobile Music Forum” is the most simple and understandable, with the catchy abbreviation "MMF,” ideal for what we usually do on this forum. ;)

    I believe for starters they intend to improve the experience for new users, better onboarding, etc. Beyond that, I’m not sure!

  • ask wim! :)

    But anything should do really with the producer added to it :)

    "Nice one" said in a Sauf East London accent.

  • I don't have any new ideas to contribute but would agree that the constraints should reference the fact that this forum is centered around mobile music generation, and avoid trademarked 'i' 'iOS', or 'Apple'.
    While there don't seem to be any Android folk here, is there an explicit reason why they should be excluded in the future? If only to persuade them to get iPads instead :-)
    I get there's a big difference between desktop and mobile capabilities, but think we could be open to any kind of mobile device.
    It's for this reason that I like the indirect references to mobile with things like 'Tapping Glass', or the accurate representation of where many of us make music with 'Sofa Studio'.

    Maybe we should have a poll sometime next week?

    Whether accepted or not this name is coooool. :)

  • @Michael, there’s some good suggestions here but i think you’re better going for the Loopy Pro Forum. Keeps it simple and uses the same logic as it currently being the Audiobus Forum.

    To worry that it’s disingenuous is kinda crazy - you should have changed the name from the Audiobus Forum long ago if you really wanted the name to reflect the content and themes discussed!

    You’re paying for the site so it’s perfectly reasonable for you to have the free publicity of Loopy Pro as a side effect. Plus, it becomes a place readily available online where users of Loopy Pro can actually ask their questions regarding Loopy Pro when they want to; another positive side effect.

    Speaking of the free publicity which comes from the name, maybe the new owners of Audiobus would actually want it to remain as the Audiobus Forum! Has that discussion been had? I can see why you might not want that though even if they did.

    Personally, I’d caution about going for a name which is an in-joke amongst current members unless it’s really obscure and mysterious - Audiobuffs might amuse those already here but will it attract new members? Once the joke wears off…really?

    Loopy Pro Forum gets my vote. Cheers.

  • Audiobuffs is a cool little insider joke but definitely a bit misleading perhaps for new members who would likely first encounter it on Google in the results for a search related to making music on an iPad.

    That said, let's not worry too much. Gearslutz / Gearspace thrived, and it covers software despite having a name that makes it sound like it's all about hardware.
