Ipad?

touch osc is only compatible with ios 3 +

Im not sure whats the latest software for 1st gen ipads, Im pretty sure it won’t run ios6 but I imagine you can probably run ios 5 so you should be fine.

I have touch osc, never really used it though tbh.

What you planning on mapping to it?

I would look for an iPad 2 (the one without retina) instead of a 1. If your market is anything like ours, there isn’t THAT big a difference in price between used 1’s and 2’s.

The iPad 2 has a dual core A5 processor whereas the iPad 1 has a single core A4 processor. This is a pretty big step up and with iPads being available new for around 400 euro, the difference in price between a used 1 and 2 can’t be more than a few 10s of euros and I would most definitely go for the 2.

The 2 will do anything you need it to I think. After all, iPad apps are just that, apps designed specifically for the possibilities and limitations of the platform.

Totally agree with what’s been said…go for iPad 2, it runs iOS 6 and as such you get the multi-route audio functionality…plus you’ll find more apps will be compatible (like vjay, Traktor DJ etc).

Have fun with whatever you go with!
