'Faster than the PC' ? That tells me nothing
Click-bait!
They can prove it with the benchmark!
THE PC? What PC? The original IBM Personal Computer, 4.77 MHz Intel 8088 model?
Yeah, I think it's a fair bet that it will be faster than that, and quite a bit more than 80% faster too!
;-p
Cool. That 10.5in size might be the sweet spot for me. Would like something a little bigger than my Air 2, but not really wild about the larger "big boy" size.
This is different to what I read on Mac Rumours website where it was mentioned there would be a 7.9" iPad Pro to replace the iPad mini alongside the 9.7" and 12.9" models. This isn't mentioned on the link the OP posted.
Personally I'd much prefer a 7.9" version of the iPad Pro instead of a 10.5" model.
Didn't it say it would have 12 gig RAM? Not really "clickbait" .. it gave us somewhat of an idea .. screen, processor, possible release date, etc.
I am excite and ready to upgrade, don't know if senility is setting in early but I couldn't get my head around 'running on at least 80 percent faster power than the PC' with no frame of reference, my brain was left to wonder and ended up in the wilderness.
Loopy 3 and AB3 will do me for now. I'm sure air 2 will handle all the biz until 4gb ram 9.7' iPad is cheap enough to snatch second hand.
What I dream of: iPad Pro 2 12.9'' with 8GB of RAM and maximum storage of 1tb; iPad Pro 2 9.7'' with 4gb of RAM and storage up to 512gb; iPad mini with 2GB of RAM and storage up to 256gb - all that keeping the pricing points of their current counterparts.
In the above scenario, I'd buy the new 9.7''.
What will most certainly be the reality: No RAM increase, no storage increase, just a CPU bump and a handful of gimmicky features that will be used as justification for an increase of $100 in the price range in each model. Because "courage".
In the above scenario, I'll keep my Air while praying for a decently priced second-hand first-gen Pro 12.9'' on ebay.
P.S.: the worst case scenario was left missing: CPU bump, gimmicky crap, $100 price increase and they kill the analog headphone jack. Because their are shamelessly courageous.
The iPad Pro 2 can be as fast as it wants. Without a proper OS it's just not gonna cut it for production. Surface Pro 4 will probably cost as much, maybe even less. And if you put Reason 9 on that you've got all the pattern sequencers, effects units and synths you could ever need without all the file redundancy, app switching and other nightmares.
Still rocking my Air 2 for amp processing and one or two other things but I'm so disillusioned with the clunky workflow. I'm back on PC for the foreseeable.
Still love Gadget though. I'll always have love for that app.
That type of courage takes having balls the size of the largest moons that orbit jupiter, 'you want retractable cup holders for your car, well f@#* you, I've made you hanging baskets for your wing mirrors instead, as an optional extra'.
But the Surface cannot run Auria Pro, @chimp_spanner! And currently AP does a few things no similarly priced PC DAW can. Wasn't for that, even I'd consider a Surface, even disliking Windows as much as ever, and being entrenched deeply in the Mac/iOS ecosystem.
Why apple, why can't I get an iPad Pro 2 that runs OS X! Or Mac OS or whatever! Take a cue from Microsoft! I know this is audiobus but I am sick of iOS, even though I still love my synth apps!
what the hell do ppl want with macOS on iPads?
Non of the software is made for touch
Not the os, it's single click mouse pointer
And nothing in Userland is made for touch
And what do you want to use in userland?
Your desktop software?
That is such a weirdly worded article. I love the strangely specific section about the guy with the cracked screen.
I love my iPad Pro, but there is a very good chance my next tablet will be a Surface Pro, regardless of the specs of the Pro 2. I'll be using my Pro for years to come because of Auria, Procreate, Ulysses, and other long-battery-life tablety goodness, but I've grown weary of Apple's arrogance. The allure of running my desktop DAWs (and the thousands of dollars of plugins I've accumulated over the years) in an OS with real file management is also growing very strong. (I'm following closely how the desktop DAWs I use are growing more friendly to touchscreen interaction).

The first two, for sure. But Ulysses has been my greatest disappointment in terms of IOS apps. Promised so much, delivers not a lot and is clunky. Scrivener, on the other hand, is all it's cracked up to be!
No, what you have is Reason 9. I'd MUCH rather have the immense variety and dozens of quirky music making apps on IOS, AB, AUM, etc, etc.
That said - and my intense dislike of Windows 10 notwithstanding - I'd be tempted to buy a nicely specced Surface Pro if Parallels developed reliable IOS emulation, which allowed me to use my IOS apps with the power of a Surface Pro.
I've pretty much given up on Apple getting their heads out of their backsides long enough to actually make an iPad Pro that has 515gb storage, 12gb RAM and a breakout cable to attach anything, including external storage.
The Surface Pro is far more versatile than the iPad and I wish Apple would make a version of the Surface Pro running OSX (or macOS as it is known now). However, I own a Surface Pro and even though I find it more versatile and I can run all the great programs like Reason and Bitwig Studio on a touch screen device, the battery life is a huge let down probably because of the built in fan system in the Surface Pro.

Or it could be the x86 chipset.
I thought the chipset on the Surface Pro was 64bit considering it runs Windows 10 Pro 64bit.
I'm attracted to surface pro but I still find of software too small to use on a small screen and the software is in the main not touch friendly and overpriced (or iOS software is underpriced which ever way you want to look at it.)
The moment they make osx for both Mac and Ipad prices of software will shoot to the stars. Also as @lala mentioned it would spell trouble with graphics.
I'd rather wait for IOS to evolve into an optimised thing to itself.
Can anyone confirm if the Surface Pro 3 uses a x86 chipset? I find this difficult to believe as my Surface Pro 3 uses an Intel Core i7 CPU and 8GB ram which I thought was 64bit.
I’m looking to get the iPad Pro 2, whatever it is. I want a bigger screen than my Air, and I already have the apps I know and like. I think it’ll probably be faster with a new CPU, and that’s a plus. I accept that iOS has some limitations but, for my needs, I can work around them. I would be very surprised if Apple made iPad into a different platform.
"Faster than the PC", LOL, way to go for a meaningless statement. Stopped reading there.
But are you guys comparing apple's A10 chip to an intel i7 like they are on equal terms? It's an ARM processor, guys, are you serious?
All Intel CPUs since the Intel Core 2 Duo are 64-bit (which is roughly 10 years old). You wouldn't be able to use more than 3GB RAM with an x86 architecture.
Yes, obviously! I don't understand some people's incredulity towards that concept! Bitwig and fl are already on board with it and it's a matter of time before others follow suite!
iOS is constantly about workarounds, having to run apps in audiobus then AUM, then a DAW! Some apps not playing well with others etc!
Nope, I am with @chimp_spanner on this one! Reason 9 is cool! Beats the socks off gadget any day! Or most other synth apps out there! I would miss Animoog tho!
