If I get this right, as of now, it is only possible to download new Drift presets onto the Move, no Wavetable presets.

I only own Live Intro, so I cannot use the Wavetable synth in Live anyways (yet).
But, in case there will be (hopefully) some 'Black week' or so sales offering, I'm considering to ...

I don't know if that helps for you, but I very much like using 'Touch Portal' on my Phone as an additional input device for Live, so I rarely have to use the keyboard at all.

The 'Bass', 'Lead' etc. buttons launch the respective VSTs (simply numbers from 2-6 ...

I enjoy very much playing music in a dimmed and cozy ambient environment.
Currently, even at 'Brightness Low', it feels like as if I can light the whole room with the leds of the pads (not really, but you get the idea :wink: )

Can you please add an even dimmer setting like 'Brightness Min'?

This ...

Totally agree!

Currently, I have the sense I have to hammer the pads quite hard to get some higher velocity values.
I'd much prefer to be able to play softer on the pads, meaning I'd need a more sensitive pad-setting.

Couldn't agree more!

Thank you for the detailed response!

I guess I will go for the splitter-cable option.
Any idea, when it will be back in stock and how much it will cost?

Thank you for the hint with the KB article.

In the article, it just says that when the Laptop can deliver 7.5W, Move should 'charge slowly'.
My Surface Studio DOES deliver 7.5W (according to the system specs), nevertheless Move is continuously discharged, even when in controller mode.

Is my Move ...

I'm somewhat disappointed how difficult it is to charge the Move.

Currently, I can ONLY charge it with its own external power supply - when plugged to Microsoft Surface Dock, the Surface Studio Laptop or the Arturia MiniFuse (all powered with their power supply) it always complains 'charger is ...

I found a good solution that lets me control two devices (MiniFreak & Move) from one keyboard controller (KeyLab MK3) with a small additional invest:
The 'CME U2MIDI Pro – Professionelle USB-MIDI-Schnittstelle' https://amzn.eu/d/fXChM9v allows me filter out channel 2 (where MiniFreak is listening to ...

agreed!

Yes, we can.

I have my Arturia KeyLab MK3 connected via Moves' USB-A connection to the USB-C in of the KeyLab.
You have to set up Move to 'Midi in only'.

Current disadvantage is (as far as I could figure out) is that Move always listens on all Midi channels.
That means that when I simultaneously ...

Update:

Interestingly, in this FAQ article Ableton says it's NOT possbible to display the macro names:
https://help.ableton.com/hc/en-us/articles/15616909965596-Presets-on-Move

But, apparently this is not true.
I downloaded their Template for drift and made some changes, the macro names ARE ...

Update:

I just found this incredible detailed and useful page by Marc Mosher which contains all the details I seem to be missing:

After an inspiration by this video:

I tried to create my own Drift presets in Live and upload them to Move - with only some success.

First I didn't manage tp find any Templates on the Ableton site, so I took a Drift preset from one of my sets in ...

I understand that Move is capable of polyfomic aftertouch, which is amazing.
Using Move as a controller for Live and i.e. using the Pads' aftertouch with Arturia VSTs is much fun and lets me forget that I am missing a modwheel on the Move.

But:
I can hardly find (m)any presets on Move standalone ...
