And compared with the Pros 256 GB model, an Air of the same size would save you over 300.

Enter tablets. The devices you use to check out at food trucks and read the New York Times have steadily grown more and more powerful.

And with that added power comes the ability to do more than swipe cards or read books.

From iPads to the Surface Pro, see our list of tablets that pack the most heat.

With a tablet at the ready, you can make your bedroom or your tour bus a mini recording studio.

Weve listed the model with 256 GB of space, but if you plan on keeping this thing around for years, and using it to store tons of data, Apple actually offers a version with 1 TB of memory.

For one, the Pro features Apples newest Liquid Retina display giving you 2732 x 2048-pixel resolution at 264 pixelsinch.

But for a musician, the most important quality in this tablet is the engine, and the A12X chip driving this iPad runs five trillion operations every second, according to the manufacturer.

Needless to say, if Mark Foster could record and edit songs on his phone, imagine the possibilities with Apples newest Pro.

Acting as the latest in the Surface Pro line, this tablet offers a variety of options for customization.

The base model starts with an Intel Core i5 processor, 8 GB of RAM and 128 GB of storage.

However, we prefer a model with slightly more storage (256 GB to be exact) as creating and recording takes up quite a bit of space.

Microsoft does offer their Surface Pro with the Intel Core i7, however that extra-fast processing will run you an additional 300 or so.

While were all for faster speeds, the i5 is no slouch, and can handle your FL Studio sessions just fine.

According to Microsoft, this tablet should last all day with regular use, and 13.5 hours of video playback.

As producing and recording takes up a fair amount of battery, you can expect it to last closer to the 13-hour mark.

But even at 13 hours, the Surface Pro is outlasting the iPad Pro and iPad Air by a considerable amount.

The S4, while not as powerful as the Surface Pro or iPad Pro, still boasts an impressive amount of storage and power for the price.

Whats more, its nearly the lightest option on our list, second to the iPad Air by.06 pounds.

The S4 also comes standard with Samsungs S-Pen, a nifty little device that allows you to write and draw on your tablet as if it were a Moleskine notebook.

If lyrics tend to pup into your head on the road, this is a great device to have by your side.

From a storage standpoint, the Air comes in either a 64 GB or 256 GB model.
