Ableton Forum

look over at my poor old push 3 standalone and it feels like it's the step brother that never gets the love & attention he really needs and most importantly deserves. I really do feel like selling it as it will probably never do everything that I believe is essential for it to do any time soon....

In amongst the rest of the posts with support-type questions (mine included) I notice now that I can't go back to 11 without feeling a bit like I'm missing out. The new browser — great. The sound similarity search — great. Meld is very interesting (although I struggle to find the sweet spots). Roar,...

As subject, an empty Live 12 set eats 51% CPU in Activity Monitor on an M1Max Macbook Pro constantly. It's not the Ableton Indexer process, which takes 100% at startup and then disappears. It's the main Live process. I can no longer use Live without being plugged in, because this absolutely demolish...

patience....

What is this unfamiliar word?

I’ve tested it yesterday and it works perfectly. But is it also possible to do it on the master channel? If you have plugins on the master channel. No, because you can't add clips to the master channel (AFAIK). If you add an empty audio track to function as a bus and add a silent audio clip of a ce...

Thank you. But I need switch off in the session view to do a live performance. Or I am wrong? It is possible to automate in a clip in session view, and have one clip with the effect on and another with it off. Automate the device on/off at the start of the clip and select between the two clips as n...

Have you lit up 5,6,7,8 in the Mono column under the Output Config button in Preferences/Audio? (can't remember if I had to do this but sounds like you've done everything else)

Glad it helps.
If you're unsure about this maybe being a hardware issue, don't hesitate to contact Support.

Already have! Sincerely hope it's software, this is my third Push 3...

You could try keeping P3 in MPE/Poly AT, but load an instance of MPE Control before your synth. In its Pressure tab, it has an option to convert PolyAT to monoAT (you need to expand the device with the little arrow at the bottom right of the GUI to access this option). Let us know if that helps. Hi...

If I start up Drift in MPE mode and select 808 Pure, for example, and strike a pad at medium velocity and then press harder for aftertouch, it's pretty smooth and nice and modulates the filter just fine. However, I've got a few synths that only respond to channel pressure, so I switch to monophonic....

I think that should be the name of your next album.

I have a list of potential track titles, this is going on it

(It hasn't stopped me sitting in front of the thing this evening; I'm not sure I could live without it now. Such a great controller. I just don't want to think that I'm doing myself some damage by using it)

That's a thoughtful reply, elbows, thanks. It isn't as strong as the last one, and you're right, it's very easy to reactivate. I can think about the smell now without even being in front of it, and I'm very bad at imagining smells usually.

Well, here we are, three months later, and I've been using the P3C in hot weather again. This, it turns out, was a mistake. The smell is back, as is my headache. I've opened another support ticket. I can't be the only one experiencing this, can I? There must be someone else here who maybe notices th...

It should be on by default, but go check in the midi Preferences and see if P3 User mode "remote" option is turned on.

That was it, thank you! I didn't think I'd changed this setting but perhaps it just doesn't persist across Pushes?
