Unless you load Asio4All drivers of course. A Windows laptop however only gives you Windows audio output which is notoriously slow and gives you latency. Bringing the laptop allowed me to load up Ableton Live and the full live sets, or just load a basic setup to play piano sounds with the M32. Then there is the option to scale up a little. The iPad speaker audio quality is reasonable.
Perfect for a few songs I really wanted to practice on. Once connected and loading up Garageband, I was practicing a few songs in no time. The most lightweight option is the iPad and the M32, but I had to bring a small USB-C hub to connect the two. An iPad, an USB-C hub and a mini keyboard Maybe it’s more suited to just playing around then practicing full songs? Jamming along some new song ideas? I brought it along, so it would have to make do. I found out that it is just a little too cramped and limited for my songs, but it was close to having a keyboard most of the time. Is a midi keyboard with 32 mini keys something you can play on? Maybe. The good thing about the M32 is its build quality and the playability given its limitations.
It gave me several options of practicing singing and playing the keyboard. This time I chose to bring an iPad, a (Windows) laptop, the Zoom U-24 audio interface and a mini keyboard, the Komplete Kontrol M32. Actually the only thing you need is anything between a phone and a laptop to be able to sing here and there, but if you also want to practice playing keys and singing there are some choices to make. The choice for me was to just step out of the daily routines of practicing and playing live and then step in again, or bring some gear and practice on the road. One and a half week does not really cut it then, but it will have to do. Usually I need a full week slow down to idle mode and then a week to start up again. Long enough to have this feeling of really having traveled, but probably short enough to pick up the daily routines in no time.
