Try tracking a 50-channel DAW session at 24-bit/96kHz though top-flight conversion (e.g., Apogee), with all the plugins needed for a good mix, on your Androne, and let me know how it goes.

why would you bother doing that on a phone. i would think at that point you would have easy access to dedicated equipment.

Took the words out of my mouth. Any real computing, I do on a real Win7 Laptop (HP Probook450 with i7-6500U, 16gbDDR3, 500GB M-2 MVMe boot SSD, additional 1tb sata storage SSD,etc). Runs circles around any silly little phone.

And, I add, recording a 50-track session with several plugins inserted isn't even a task I would trust to a laptop, unless it was just a fun thing. 50 channels of Apogee and you don't have a dedicated desktop machine? Come on.

By the way, do you need all those plugins just to track? How about the latency?

Answered upthread. Yes, I have HW more suited to the task. But it's not in my pocket 'round the clock.

The point is, a recent iPhone -- maligned in the post to which I was replying as 'Apple, therefore inferior' -- is up to the task.

If your laptop can't handle a 50-track session, that's an awfully limited laptop by today's standards. The laptop I recently demoted after 6 (yes six) years of nonstop service as my do-everything machine had no problem with handling such a load. With negligible latency.
