Re: Step Divider with Push 3

I have tried the “probability pack” in push 3 also. Perhaps Sonic Faction will do us a favor and re-write the pack to work with push 3.

Re: Push 2 replacement encoders

I was having problems with my push 2 for different reasons. I contacted support for repairs. I sent mine in and they sent out a refurbished unit that was in pristine shape and functioned like new. I don’t remember the cost but I do remember it was reasonable and well worth it.

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

This extremely frustrating when jamming and every second counts. The work around….use your foot switch. That works!

A dedicated stand for push

Ableton should create a dedicated portable stand for push with a built in 1 or 2 rack space feature. I think everyone would buy that. I am currently using a Gibraltar Gems stand and it’s the best I have found. I have to rig a stand behind the stand holding my push for my interface. No mater how good...

Re: Push 3 audio interface - Give us Direct monitoring - Roundtrip latency is bad

I have found the round trip monitoring to be pretty good. Why? 1. Change the default audio setting from sample rate 44.1 to 48 and buffer from 128 to 64. This will speed things up a bit. 2. Use a high quality audio interface. I use a motu 828es. The built in ones are not that great. A lot of people ...

Re: Push 2 bad pad sensitivity

I thought I would put my 2 cents on this. I had the same problem. You can exchange your push for a fee to Ableton. I was very happy with the transaction. The push they sent is still perfect. The cause of this problem is probably setting something on your push. Never ever lay anything on your push. H...

Re: Problems outdoors in the sun.

Thanks for the reply.
My eyes are not what they used to be. Perhaps phone type screens will eventually be cheap enough to get into these devices.

Problems outdoors in the sun.

Looking for some responses of what people do when working in bright sunlight? I find that the display screen is un-readable.

What is the best push stand?

I have been using a Gibraltar GEMS stand. It’s the best I’ve found albeit a hassle to lug around. Has anyone found better?

Re: Push 3 USB C cable length

I use a usb extension cable which is high quality but very long. I have had no problems but I generally use it only to create templates for push SA.

Midi file import

The ability to import midi clips is a pretty big omission. Keeping a midi library of beats for import is basic stuff a lot of people like to do. We can import audio clips….what happened to import midi clips???

Re: Push 3 ADAT I/O recommendations?

The MOTU stuff is a bit more expensive than most but you do get a lot for that. Ultra-high: headroom, ultra-low: noise floor and round trip monitoring.

Re: Push 3 ADAT I/O recommendations?

I took the cheapo way with the Behringer 8200. It works brilliantly! I gig 3 or 4 days a week with a small group playing guitar, violin, mandolin and also singing. As soon as I get this tested I will use Push 3 as a sub-mixer sending either 2 or 3 lines to the main mixer and one to my S1 monitor. Mo...

Midi controller assignments on stand alone

This issue has had a bit of airplay. I needs to be addressed ASAP. For those of us that play other instruments into live, the absence of this feature makes things so difficult its practically a deal breaker. One can set up on the computer and transfer over to stand alone but this is unwieldy and not...
