Good for you.
I plan to upgrade to the mini soon also.

I did buy a new ipad Air for gigging last week.
Slightly larger screen, longer battery. Faster processor.
Nice upgrade from my 2013 vintage Ipad.


What configuration (CPU,RAM,SSD) did you buy?


Apple M2 Pro with
10‑core CPU,
16-core GPU,
16‑core Neural Engine
16GB unified memory
512GB SSD storage

I tried to overload Logic by running multiple projects each with instances of the same plug-in on each track along with BiaB running and not a blip. During my pre-purchase research I ran across a video where a guy tried to bomb Logic with well 140 tracks on the same 16GB memory as mine. That convinced me to go with 16 rather than the 24 or 32 I've run on previous Macs. The 512GB storage is fine for me as I extensively use iCloud and external drives thus only have about 200GB on the SSD.
