Ableton Forum

Ableton have never said the full functionality of Live on desktop is the benchmark against which Push should be judged. Depending on how you want to put it...adding a "Standalone" to a former controller-only device makes people feel that this is it. Standalone. The big promise of a "...

The MPCs structure is a bit odd as a track doesn't have to be setup consistently across sequences and I personally found it painful working through changes. Tho they way it comes together in song mode is nice and simple. Yeah of course that's something that needs to be consistent across Sequences. ...

That was conclusive and what I thought would be the case (unfortunately). Technically it is possible to use the device standalone but still to route certain audio tracks via USB but you would need to implement it. Working with digital mixers and consoles that do exactly this often. That's why I aske...

My experience with the support is: they try to do their best and they are very helpful. I have to admit that the current response time will take a while but after intial contact it should get better/faster. We are all human and there would be reason for the current response time (holiday? Personell...

So I searched for this but didn’t find conclusive information. If this has already been answered please post the links to the respective threads. For ages now I use Live as my idea recorder and for playing live and Studio One as my mixing/mastering tool. It’s perfect for me and I won’t change that. ...

Each pad could represent a section, and then holding the pad would give options to pick a specific scene for that section, and the number of repeats. Bit closer to the Deluge. Even better would be the ability to select which clip pattern per track goes into that section. Click a new pad in song mod...

Which interface do you have? Sorry for the very late reply. It's a Behringer X32 Rack with the S16 expansion. It's nice if you absolutely need Class Compliance and have the need for many I/O ports. From a usability standpoint and if you only use a Win-PC or Mac, then something like an Antelope Orio...

I think the USB port gets taken over for MIDI, so its function is completely different in Standalone. That's my theory, at least. If it’s really like this, then that is a bug imho. With my MPC I route a midi interface, and audio interface and all internal disks to and from a PC at the same time ove...

Thx for the feedback, that's valuable :wink: Ableton never communicates about future plans, so don't expect anything in this area. Thanks for the quick answer. :) And yeah I figured that. No company does. It would be more about a general mission goal like “we want to make it a complete standalone u...

Tbh I am currently a tad disappointed of the standalone mode because it’s not standalone at all if most things have to be prepared in the box to use it without the box. If you want to use any external midi device, then the current feature set is below basic. And I feel even an MVP is not really met ...

Alright, took my limited knowledge of m4l and slightly edited tr3b's device to who all controls on the Push 3.

It can be found here. Just download to Push and enjoy

I tried different ways. Copy everything to the Ableton user library first, drag the prog change m4v directly the the group. And so much more that I lost the overview at some point. Could you detail the correct way of grouping a m4l plugin, map macros and put to the push please?

I can confirm that. I have three minor remarks - I will replace the large jog for one that has that finger hole in there for faster scrolling through large lists - the finish feels like it’s not the one that will get sticky over time (hopefully) but it still is kind of fingerprint magnet. - would ha...

Interesting. I have installed 1.1 today and push reports "Push 1.1, Firmware 1.0.68. That's all good then. As said in my previous post, I misread and though the OP was saying "1.1.1" instead of "1.1", my mistake. Everyone should update to 1.1 as soon as possible. The versio...

As I said, look up on maxforlive.com and download a device that sends PC by turning a knob or something and you'll be good to go. Is there any that is working? I tried all I could find (4) and none is working really. Having program changes in standalone is quite an essential thing for me. I tried t...
