I bought my first iPad primarily as a music creation device. I purchased almost every keyboard, recording and guitar amp sim app that came our for the first generation iPad, and had a ton of fun with them [0][1].
But then, the inevitable happened, the keyboard synth algorithms, multi track recorders, convolution reverbs etc., all improved and became more complicated, to the extent that the processor on the old iPad simply couldn't keep up any more. So I pretty much HAD to upgrade.
The old iPad is still in service though - my wife is a portrait artist and uses it to display reference pics next to her easel that she can zoom in and scroll around in. As the author of the OP has said - no problem with its aesthetics or reliability, we just reverted to using the apps that still work within the confines of its processor and memory limits.
