I have Sunrizer AU/VST too. I would also like Nave as AU but it's too expensive for what it does. (....my favourites are Alchemy, Omnisphere, Dune 2, Zebra HZ....and some unique Kontakt instruments).
I would die for a Mitosynth AU.
The good thing on a surface like device is you can edit synths via finger, mouse and pen and you can use multi touch for playing all the intruments via virtual keyboards.
I also think that the iPad Pro dissapointments will be a good thing to push the Surface Pro 4. 14" would be great. I wish i just could use my MacBook pro 15" screen as tablet too.
The more i think about an iPad Pro i would like such a device but i want more on it as a smartphone OS.
For a freebie U-he synth, beat magazine from Germany are giving away a cut-down, but still excellent synth Bazille, a monster modular, FM, PD fractilized digital synth with classic U-he filters, on the DVD of the upcoming mag. I highly recommend it.
I tried the demos for Reason and Ableton and for me personally the way Abletons interface works on the surface with the tabs around the edge to bring in certain things such as browser etc felt more intuitive for touch. So i went with Ableton and am really loving it at the moment.
I have my eye on Omnisphere & Dune 2 for sure, they sound amazing....gotta save the pennies tho first.
I think the iPad Pro will set a foundation that will see apps like Ableton/Logic sooner or later, especially with the pencil. I think the pencil will be very important for professional music apps such as logic to be able to control and create with the level of detail and functionality it has. Unless they adopt something like iMPC Pro's tap to fine adjust somehow.
I just want that pen
If you dont use any midi hardware (keyboard,drumpad controllers etc) and only use a mouse or pencil its no problem,but when you use a midi controller you gonna notice a latency and have to use a external sound interface to get rid of the latency.Sound quality is no problem.
Fxpansion Geist and a surface pro.. Match made in heaven. Geist2 is coming end of the year with a scalable vector UI. I used reason7 on my surface pro for about a week then gave up as the dials on all the rack devices are so damn small it's like playing with legos
Thanks, so it's the latency of the input device that is a problem, midi hardware etc.
Yes I guess that could be a problem, wonder if anyone has tried FL Studio 12, it's supposedly more touch orientated.
Check this guys videos, he does in depth videos with different use cases daws and tests on surface pro...
@knewspeak Here it is FL Studio 12....
Yes and no.Its the same as using a normal windows pc or laptop.Apple is the only brand that got great build in soundcards with almost 0 latency without the need of using an external sound interface.It will also improve the screen response on the Surface Pro when tapping the screen to trigger sounds (the time it takes tapping the screen and the sound comes out of the speaker).So with an external sound interface its easier to stay in tempo with your song and record some extra tracks,because you dont have to get used of the latency that you would hear normally. I mean you need a Asio dedicated sound interface to achieve the same result as on an Apple device.
I can understand the need for the Apple Pencil on an iPad Pro if you are doing art illustration on the iPad; or editing a huge multi-track project in Auria for example; or editing a complex waveform. But doesn't the use of a single pencil defeat the whole idea of multi-touch interaction for music? While you are holding a stylus, you can use your thumb and middle index finger to pinch/zoom; but that doesn't help music apps that use more than two fingers at a time; like a drumming app for instance. Or moving three or more faders, for example.
The use of the Pencil would be limited for music apps. The larger surface of the iPad Pro would really help with multi-touch performance, however, especially in a live situation. What uses would be good for the Pencil to justify its cost, compared to an ordinary stylus?
@bsantoro, yes I agree, it seems a retrograde step for touch devices to use the pencil, but if the move is to integrate desktop software in one fell swoop, then a replacement of a mouse is needed, as a temporary means of control, here the pencil could be used, then the software could integrate to touch, over time.
I was thinking about how the Pencil, with so many levels of pressure sensitivity, could be used in the future for music production or performance? Of course we all want multi-touch with multi-pressure sensitivity; but, we will have to wait for that to happen. Until then, we could use external MIDI controllers to provide that function.
For music, I would never buy the ApplePencil. $129 toward a good MIDI controller would be much more useful.
For art, design, etc, yes the Pencil looks great.
A salami stick works too
And tastes better
$129 will buy a lot of salami sticks, which is good cause they don't last long 'round here.
this is insane
I don't know. I enjoyed using the "dumb" stylus types for editing in piano roll editors when I was deep into Nanostudio a couple years ago, and while much better than a finger, there was slight frustrations I had with it.
I think the pencil will solve that and be quite practical for that type of editing.
I also think there's a chance it will make some rotary knobs easier to deal with in some apps. It should make it much easier to dial in specific values because of its greater precision.
I think a mouse works much better for precise editing,but i could be wrong.I like tapping the screen with my fingers or using a midi controller, because it feels more natural and its more fun.
That FL Studio 12 video might change my mind on using a stylus for music, at least in a DAW.
it looks useful with the right innovation, FL is going in the right direction with that.
Thing with the FL Studio model, lifelong updates, means, they have to expand in other ways, by bringing it to OSX, iOS? Along with a lot of neat plugins too.
I'd rather see a bluetooth trackpad, if I need a high degree of precision. It's off the glass entirely.
Think within a few years all laptops/notebooks/macbooks are replaced by tablets.When my laptop gets outdated ill also buy a big tablet that supports a full OS.

I dont like it....you are not intouch with what you see when your touching it....
This is why i think touch even with a pen/pencil is still very intuitive if done right....much better than a mouse or track pad....closest thing to direct control (apart from the glass)
Thats just my preference ofcourse
Its why i liked the Novation SL Range as it had the 2 lcd displays showing each perameter as you adjusted it on the pots and sliders
Wish I hadn't seen that FL12 video cuz now I don't know what I want (and i'm dirt-poor to boot!)
yeah my thoughts are starting to really take shape as well. I'm on an iPad v3 right now and there are apps that I love to death on the iPad that being Samplr, animoog, kymatica apps, Patterning, and Guitarism/ifrettless bass... there's no way I'm going to stop using the iPad but it's looking now like I'm going to be going for an iPad mini to replace my iPad v3 and then I'll be checking into what the surface tabs have going on after the new ones come out cause frankly after all of the trouble/frustrations we've been going through in iOS, being able to run ableton, renames, flstudio, etc... on a surface couldn't possibly be more frustrating just because the multitouch isn't as evolved. I'm starting to think they will make a great combination.
