Touching the Enemy
Bit underwhelmed by the ipad pro, thinking of spending the money to upgrade to an Air2 128gb plus a budget windows 8.1 tab or a used MS surface pro 1 as well. Anyone in here got some wisdom to share on windows tabs and music software. I would be looking to run Miroslav Philharmonic, open labs stagelight, samplemoog, TRacks for mastering. Would not be expecting windows tab to run massive sessions maybe just a few plug ins at a time in Reaper.

Until I have an iPad Pro in my hands, all the commentary and disappointment, etc.. is based on a few pretty pictures and some numbers.
I used a MacBook Air for a couple of years. All the specs compared miserably to MacBook Pros and other laptops. But in the real world it suited me perfectly.
I have a Surface Pro 2 and for that reason I wouldn't consider a pro atm, there is some issues with touch control, but nothing major that isnt resolved with a mouse if needed. TRacks is good, but I get much better results from ozone 5 (6 is now out but havent tried it). I use Ableton no problem and tried bitwig and sonar x3, but I've been using ableton for a long time and stuck with that.

@RedSkyLullaby you might be interested in this video series on a musician's experience with a Surface Pro 3.

Seeing things like this have got me thinking about using full fledged computer DAWs with a touchscreen. Many of the limitations of ios music making like midi sync, simply don't exist with computer DAWs. In a single program Ableton Live, I can do what it takes me about a dozen separate apps to do in ios. This is potentially a big workflow advantage IMO. Big DAWs on touchscreens is still in fairly early stages, but once they get things ironed out, I see fewer advantages for the ios ecosystem.
Thanks @ecamburn
There are so many free plug ins also, not abandoning ios but thinking might be more bang for buck having windows and ios. Stagelight is set up for touchscreens and is only $10 looks good, almost ableton-ish
@Jose_Bee Have you run any IK Multimedia software on Surface pro2, also what kind of limits do you hit with pro2 in terms of how much stuff you can get going at once
I just stared to merge my iOS music with my Mac using an iConnect audio 4 audio/MIDI interface and so for it has been working well. I think the best route is using an iPad with a Mac/Win platform instead of a hybrid like the Surface is better because the iPad is a more robust tablet for music and a laptop/desktop gives you more power in CPU/memory performance when working with plugins and DAWs.
Keeping your old iPad and spending the money on a more powerful laptop/desktop and linking them with a box like the Audio 4 gives you the best of both worlds. Plus the Audio 4 also acts as an MIDI interface as well giving you access to a third world of possibilities.

I've not put any IK stuff on there but the projects I loaded where from my desktop and they loaded just fine, not hit any limits it really powerful tbh. I've paired the SP2 with an RME babyface and it's working well. I also use it for mpc studio to create a really portable mpc setup.
Thanks. Anyone used Stagelight before?
