+ GEAR RECOMMENDATIONS FOR BACKING TRACKS +

◆ iPAD ◆

8 Gigs RAM, 256 Gigs SSD storage

Note: for laptops, it really depends on what you are doing for your live setup. If you are just sending backing tracks (WAV/AIFF files) and click and sending MIDI to your gear, you could be fine on 4-8gigs of RAM. But if you start doing lighting, plugin’s/effects (VST for keyboards or reverbs for vocals, etc) or ESPECIALLY video, you’ll want at least 16gigs of RAM (MacBook Pro).
