Re: Push standalone how to quantize selected notes

I feel like I’m missing something basic. I can select notes inside of a midi clip, I press quantize and the entire clip quantizes, instead of just the selected notes. How do I quantize only a small selection of notes? I was also looking for this, but I don't think the functionality exists. Bumping ...

Re: Push 3 controller - hot swap sample not working

Have a drum kit loaded. Highlight a pad I want to swap. Hit the hot swap button. Browse to the sample I want to replace with. Now do I hit Load by the top of the screen? Or do I hit the hot swap button again? Do I hold the pad and hit hot swap? Do I press the jog wheel? I've tried all of this. Does...

Re: SM58 Mic with Push 3 is super quiet

Just to reiterate, the SM57 works just fine now. What I think was happening is my electric guitar has some serious grounding problems. It buzzes every time I touch it, even when plugged into an amp. I didn't realize this before I had plugged it into the push (which thinking back terrifies me that I ...

Re: Push 3 – Random very short noise burst.

Before I reach out to the support, I'll ask you. I run a Push 3 controller and use the latest driver. I get some random audio crackling. When it happens, it is just one very short noise burst, similar to CPU overload crackling. But the CPU is not above 10%. Happens steadily at no regular intervals....

Re: are all the parameters of simpler mapped to push 2?

Not in front of mine at the moment, but I believe that one is missing. There's a few parameters on Live's native devices I've noticed are missing, like the looping envelope options in Operator, which is a real bummer as that's one of my favorite features of that synth. Hopefully Ableton has plans t...

Cleaning grease and gunk off Push 3 pads with something other than “soap”?

So there’s a good amount of information online for the Push 1/2, but none about the push three, specifically the pads. I’ve never touched either of the other pushes, but these pads feel very fancy and I’m hesitant to use anything other than dry cloth on them. I understand the manual says you can use...

Re: SM58 Mic with Push 3 is super quiet

Omggg so... I just tried the mic again to troubleshoot and it WORKS perfectly now.... I have no idea why it's all the sudden working. Here's what I do know though: Originally the push was on my desk which is cluttered with all kinds of cables (computer power, Push AC power), a USB hub with a phone p...

Re: SM58 Mic with Push 3 is super quiet

Reeeally… I’m using an XLR->1/4in cable, the preamp is set to high, gain is max at 20dB. So something must be going on because the guitar is the same way. I really have to crank the gain on it, but not nearly as bad as the SM58! Could it be a hardware thing? Maybe I should start a ticket if you your...

SM58 Mic with Push 3 is super quiet

So I'm confused about "dynamic" microphones and the push that doesn't supply phantom power. I thought if I bought a Shure SM58 which is dynamic (meaning doesn't require phantom power?) it would work with the push on High pre-amp. But it's pretty much inaudible. When I use my Focusrite and ...

Re: USB Hub recommendations for Push 3 in US

Hi there Does anyone have recommendations for a usb hub for Push 3. I would prefer for it not to be powered but so far I've tried one that did not work. I wonder if it in fact needs to be powered or did I just buy too cheap of a product. If you know something that ships in the USA I would much appr...

Re: Have to Press Record Button Twice-Sometimes But Not All the Time

Please do and report back. I'm not saying it's 100% a hardware issue, but if it was a software issue affecting everyone we'd have seen a lot more reports of it I would think. So... I'm preeeetty sure it's user error... Standalone or Controller modes don't make a difference. But I practiced making d...

Re: Step sequencer and rec quantized notes should respect swing

FYI: Turns out this is expected behavior in case anyone else stumbles upon this.
