Re: My Push 2 screen switches seem inconsistent. Is this normal?

Cool, thank you [jur], I appreciate the help and perspective! I'll see if it causes me any real-world issue as I use them more (lately I've mainly been working with the pads).

Re: My Push 2 screen switches seem inconsistent. Is this normal?

Sorry to take a while to respond! but that screen is a thing of beauty I agree, and the pad grid feels wonderful, and the whole UI layout is just really nice. I really have to commend the design team; I really like what they came up with. Nothing wrong with your unit. Is this the sort of thing you s...

My Push 2 screen switches seem inconsistent. Is this normal?

I've recently gotten a shiny new Push 2 through the trade-in program. It works great. However, I notice that the switches surrounding the screen (and some of the interface buttons) seem to be assembled inconsistently. Some of them have a nice easy push and a solid mechanical "click." But o...

Re: Undesirable Smoothing on Automated Filters

I would really love if this sort of thing were optional. This kind of smoothing can be great for general use but I feel like it'd be more of a problem for really precise editing - glitch sounds, etc.

You'll also need to capture the notes outside of each octave and transform them into one. You can do this with Pitch effects in a rack with a bunch of chains. IIRC Puremagnetik does this with one of their racks... Clapbox I think?

Re: DJM 900 With Ableton

I think the DJM900 has a USB audio interface built in. This answer assumes it does. First off, make sure Live is set up right. Audio preferences should show the DJM900 as your audio output device (and possibly input too, not sure). Your master track should be going out to its outputs. On the mixer i...

You can drag them in from Finder or Explorer as well, in most cases!

As far as I know the warping engine is unchanged from Live 8.

Re: Stuck on deciding a midi controller,

I got an old-style Axiom 49 for $150 once and it has worked very well. 49 keys has turned out to be pretty useful, and having sliders and pads is great, but I find the clicky knobs (same as on the 25) to be basically useless for me. I hear the Axiom Pro's knobs are much better, and correspondingly m...

Re: What happened to swing?

Load up your favorite Swing groove and adjust the "Amount" slider. The effect is, as far as I know, the same. By no means do you have to rely on just presets :)

Re: Browser woes

I like the fact that the index makes searching fast later, but I'd personally like some kind of indication that a given folder isn't finished yet, since I kind of worry when I can't find a file that I know exists. Some sort of un-indexed browser view like you suggest would be cool too, although I'm ...

Re: Automating and/or Randomizing midi channels...

I suppose you could do something like that with an Instrument Rack filled with External Instrument devices on different channels, and a knob mapped to chain selector? I haven't really though this through but it seems like it's at least kind of in the right ballpark.

There's a pretty useful one on Freesound that's linked from the Amen Break's wikipedia page. I can't get to Freesound from work but I copied the link for you.

Re: McMillen QuNeo looks to be everything I want in a controller

If I were a professional touring musician that price wouldn't be completely unreasonable, assuming it's rock-solid.
