Ableton Forum

Yes they are indeed being created for a reason as I discovered when I disabled them for much the same reasons… seconded!

Happened to me. Mac. Did all kinds of troubleshooting then found that I had accidentally muted audio in OS! Seems stupid but Ableton really needs to note this in the manual, very unintuitive

Any particular advantages to using Push 3 in version 12 vs 11? I ask because while I like the controller, there are issues outlined in posts below that I hope to be fixed eventually and my feeling is that Ableton will prioritize 12 and perhaps leave 11 behind. I’m stuck on 11 for now for OS and ...

I have many wishes… but this one would be very easy to implement and would immediately allow Push 3 to be useful for realtime mixing:

When in Session screen mode and session pad mode the encoder for each track is unused. If you could assign it to a track property- an obvious one would be volume ...

Oldish thread but this might help in the mean time: you can use more than 1 instance of Live. I have used a 32 bit version of 9 and a 64 bit version at the same time. Currently I have used Live 11 and Live 9 simultaneously. For that I have Push 3 controlling 11 and an Akai APC40 2 as the control ...

Correction: there is. User error. In *Live* prefs “select on launch” was on, I switched it off and viola, Push remains focused on the pads I was playing! Whew that solves a lot of issues for the next performance which is a theater production where sonic accents are a part of the game.

Been using ...

Nope. There’s no way to launch an audio clip while playing pads. Tried all suggestions. Not on Push or using an external controller mapped. I’m willing to put my very poor python coding hat on but no time now, gotta prep for the summer performances. I’m guessing it’s possible but will involve more ...

Good responses! The way I perform is probably not typical: I have many sample clips, some long textures, some pitched, most semi or non pitched, some long loops, some rhythmic, etc. I layer them together choosing in the moment during performance. At the same time I’ve set up 12 channels for synth ...

I bough Push 3 for international gigs, to replace 3 pieces of gear, my interface, drum pads, and clip launcher/mixer.I have a performance next month in Romania, but I’m having all kinds or issues I have to work around using Push for real time performance. Seems like Push 3 is not really designed as ...
