Re: Push 3 Update Changelog for 1.2?

Of course what brought me here is whether the beta HD cycle offers any insight to the live 12 features that will carry forward to push 3. As it stands those release notes for Live 11 are current with the updates. In other words, Push is being tested and updated with the stability and integration of ...

Re: Push 3 audio interface - Give us Direct monitoring - Roundtrip latency is bad

Yup! I still use thunderbolt. Why not? Is a free port waiting to get in the action. And USB transfers in packets, albeit the performance must be getting better. Interesting article published by Ableton on how the M1 chip actually performs better under some lower buffer sizes (presumedly due to the i...

Re: Push 3 audio interface - Give us Direct monitoring - Roundtrip latency is bad

Again, Dough, to honor what the author is illuminating, it's not a pragmatic question of whether of whether push's performance is good or bad: the latency is workable, until it isn't. It's the fact that the actual best practices of direct monitoring is literally unavailable to push as an interface. ...

Re: Anyone have a good way to deal with pick up notes?

Global quantize to the pickup length is a neat approach. Problem is, you'll then introduce a syncopation from the global clock. I think what you want to do is keep the downbeat "on the one" the same as your metronome. In that case, make your start point a full bar/measure before your loop ...

Re: I JUST LOVE THIS THING <- A bit of Push 3 positivity for a change :)

Wow, Farley! That’s genuinely an evolution of an idea. As for finishing, it seems so simple, but even having a couple encoders under one’s fingertips really makes all the difference. Such a subtle consideration, but take an eq notch and a gain—if you have a controller that lets you close your eyes a...

Re: Push 3 audio interface - Give us Direct monitoring - Roundtrip latency is bad

You know, I wrote that and then realized you could probably find a good use for the ADAT, record from there while listening to yourself. I have an art voice channel with ADAT, as well as a clarett octapre, but we could go through a list of smaller units that would serve this purpose, worthy of recor...

Re: Reset Crossfader to Middle Position

Also, I do believe the center section of the x-fader highlights with it's own key command if you are not averse to a key binding.
I use "[\]" for "left right center"
I forget whether this center portion appears for midi assignment as well...

Re: Using the Ipad as Midi Generator for Push3S - can't get the connection work

that's encouraging, elbows. I have a handful of these options now, and it's good to know that the widi jack isn't by definition going to necessarily need 5v through a separate cable. As for the push being able to utilize the Bud, my mind is not ready to let that sink in. I'm having a tricky time gra...

Re: Using the Ipad as Midi Generator for Push3S - can't get the connection work

How is push 3 powering the widi, or using Widi Master for that matter? Push uses 3.5mm midi ports, does it not? I thought that would rule out both output power as well as that particular device. Widi Jack would do the trick. The nifty thing would be that you could probably tap into the USB port to p...

Re: Push 3 audio interface - Give us Direct monitoring - Roundtrip latency is bad

jur, I don't believe that is entirely analogous, although it does illustrate the bright side that something like 6ms is not going to throw off your timing. But with Direct Monitoring, it's not the drummer over there that you are referencing, it's the drummer here. The significance is that you are he...

Re: I JUST LOVE THIS THING <- A bit of Push 3 positivity for a change :)

4ms latency that is platform agnostic--that doesn't punish me for having an older computer--is a pretty welcome prospect. That's about the same latency as bluetooth midi, which I'm researching concurrently with the CME-WIDI products. And I suspect, that would feel breezy with some outboard/guitar pe...

Re: I JUST LOVE THIS THING <- A bit of Push 3 positivity for a change :)

That's a really cool consideration: that it's also an effects box for an inst/mic input. Do you think as a DSP it's legitimately passing that sound with a manageable amount of latency that it could be used as an effects box? Could you record something through fx without feeling like your timing or m...

Re: What's the update schedule for online Push 3 manual?

When the beta comes you, you might find a PDF release. I tend to volunteer to proof-read it as my contribution.
If I can get through the manual again for every new version (a pipe dream), I uncover all manner of functionality that I underutilize.

Re: The state of Push 3 stand alone

I may have some first hand experience if I order the tethered edition in the next couple weeks. That said, stability is paramount for a performance machine, and I don't need ableton to tell me that whatever chip and HD they put in a push along with some secret sauce code is never going to replace th...
