Hi folks,

FYI: the printed book is back in stock now.

Best,

I see a lot of people have already mentioned this, I came here to check on the status of the ebook version (at the very least, I would LOVE a printed version). It just seems crazy to not jump on a product that is so hugely in demand. I read the available chapters online and was hooked, but I gotta ...

Just release it for iBooks already, mmmkay? NOW! You are aware that the actual author is reading this thread, right?! Is that how you always converse with people in your life?! :x Oh, it was just a (rude?) way to show my impatience and eagerness to buy a book that seems to be great. :oops: :oops: :...

Dennis, thank you for putting this together. Apart from the excellent and helpful content, it is a beautiful book to hold and read. Quick question - any plans of turning this into a series of video tutorials? Thanks again Hazza Thanks, glad you're enjoying it. I hadn't considered making videos out ...

Just reached the chapter that talks about "Pitch Rotation", how do you do that in Live? This can't really be done automatically. You have to move the individual notes by hand. This could be a nice Max for Live project, however. Actually, I decided to give this a try myself. Here's a devic...

Best,

sorry if I missed this somewhere... does this happen to be one of those occasions where if you buy the hard copy you get the ebook as part of the purchase?? I'm hoping so... because I can't decide which I'd prefer... both have advantages. We hadn't planned to to this, sorry. Where's your editor? :l...

We hadn't planned to do this, sorry.

I'm not sure about the timescale for the hard copies, although it will be "soon." The ebooks should be available in early April.

74, to be exact, I understand. Why 74, I wonder? Is it a Max MSP thing? I don’t know. Maybe Dennis just did the intelligent thing and wrote down everything he had to say about the subject, counted the number of tips and wrote it on the cover instead of doing it the other way around by choosing an a...

Is it a Max MSP thing?

It's a coincidence. But many people have been asking this question.

We haven't planned any translations so far, but it's under consideration.

Best,

Is there any documentation/manual for the new functions (especially for the new push melodic step sequenzer)? I use the beta and can´t find anything like this. Hi Klepa, Yes, the manual has been updated with the new functionality. All of the new step sequencer workflows are covered in the updated P...

Hi folks, We're still looking into whether or not footswitch polarity is something that can be adjusted from Push itself. In the meantime, if you happen to have a pedal whose polarity cannot otherwise be switched, I've made a small Max for Live device that will do this. http://www.maxforlive.com/lib...

it is only a feature of some MIDI keyboards to auto-sense footswitch state on startup, most keyboards don't do it. if the Yamaha pedal you are referring to is a simple switch on/off model, then your testing indicates that the Push currently doesn't have 'polarity' auto-sensing. i will test it with ...
