ipad right now is insane value. not only it has enough CPU for even serious music making, the price of software is amazing. There are some vendors that keep price parity with desktop, but most audio software is many times cheaper.

I/O story is a bit sad (one usb-c), but for most purposes it can be worked around. ipad, a few midi controllers, pair of monitors, 5€/month Logic Pro, FabFilter maybe, some intrument AUv3s — I am scared to imagine price of an equal setup, say, 15 years ago.
