The Ocean are an incredible band. One of my main influences for switching to modelers.
They’re also doing very close to what we are doing live - our lights are tied to scenes on the QC, and click/keys run on an Elektron Octatrack instead.
Very similar to what I do with Logic Pro, that runs audio to front of house, MIDI to my QC and video output to projector via HDMI. I also have an iPad Mini 2 running everything but video via Cubasis.
In my experience, the iPad Mini 2 is way more reliable and less nerve racking than running from a laptop 
man, I need to up my game. We’re not sending any automation; I have to change presets on 3 to 4 devices per song and then trigger the Projector separately. I’ve GOT to merge me some midi or something!
My band has a similar approach: Ableton Live, wireless MIDI automation, lights via DMXIS/MIDI.
Big advantage compared to Logic Pro: Ableton session view (easy to rearrange song setlist) and MIDI automation to lights.
