While there are loads of great music apps for the iPad, I find it much more limited in terms of processing power and file management than a laptop, and only slightly more portable.

The fab filter plug ins in Auria Pro are top notch for about twenty quid ish each.
AUM is great for combining lots of apps together and Audioshare is well worth the asking price too.
Amp sims like AmpliTube,ToneStack,Biasfx are all good and even the free Tonebridge is pretty good.
Try the Audiobus forum for more info ,but beware, the iOS music scene is a rabbit hole, easy to spend a lot of money on apps even though most are exceptionally cheap compared to desktop software.
If I just want to capture some live sound (band practice, etc) then I'll use the iPhone and either Music Memos (the Apple freebie) or the exceptionally decent Multitrack DAW (inexpensive, also runs on the iPad). If I'm sitting at home trying to put some ideas together, then GarageBand on the iPad works well.
The Model 15 is indeed a thing of beauty and wonder. Ideal way to get your head around modular synthesis, and it sounds really really good.
Animoog is a different beast - tbh, I haven;'t got to grips with it.
Generally I find synths on an ipad to be universally good, but I don't use it for recording, prefer the PC for that.
Remember, it's easier to criticise than create!
Borderlands granular synthesis app is incredibly cool.
I love being able to control mic pre/mixer levels of the DAW with it too.

I use the Ipad as another instrument, albeit one with loads of synth options. Usually I just connect via headphone socket and into a jack socket on the interface. I've yet to experiment with midi syncing.
This one is something done using only ipad synths, but recorded in a DAW on a PC. From memory, the synths were Alchemy, Sunrizer and maybe a piano from garageband.
Alchemy was a fanstastic synth, so good, I've still kept a first gen ipad air that has the full synth pack on it.
