Color calibration again (RGB tool missing)

Post by DrJay » Sat Jan 04, 2014 7:31 am

Hi all,
I bought myself a Push controller yesterday. Unfortunately lots of the pads on my Push are not white at all!
Can someone please provide me with a link to the RGB tool? I already signed up for beta testing, but had no luck finding the tool. Any help would be greatly appreciated, since I find the color variations rather annoying and (even worse) distracting.
Thanks

I'm in the same boat, too. Not even google finds that file :lol:

Probably should have trolled the Ableton forums a bit more before buying >.>

I have searched every page of the Push beta forum and downloaded the 9.1.1b3 release, and have not found this RGB calibration tool itself. Lost of mention of it, even a thread where people gush praise for it, and one person said they found it under "Resources" but there isn't anything there, the site or my app install.

Really frustrating this is so damned hard to get a hold of when Push has had shitty LEDs since the beginning :roll:

Probably don't want just any yahoo running around and mucking up their controller. But still. It's not like I can keep returning a Push and hope for a "good" one, just one that's "good enough" which I think mine could be if I get a hold of this bit of unobtanium Ableton has made known as the RGB Calibration Tool.

**edit** after extensively digging around and hunting it seems that this isn't available to public beta even, you have to be on the alpha/beta team.

Contact t/s directly and ask:

support@ableton.com

They'll help out, I think; they just want to keep track of it since it still is in beta.

It worked perfectly for me....

Hi,
thanks for the info, Buleriachk. I'll write them a mail and ask for support.
Hopefully the tool is going to work as expected...

When you run the calibration tool, make sure Live is NOT running. It is the first line in the instructions, but I missed it somehow, and thought there was something wrong when the tool froze with live running ...

it annoying that push can create RED colour, but infact this its only doing for record, not for clips.

Ash1 just email Ableton support, they just asked for a pic of my Push and seemed to be willing to hook me up with a copy of the calibration tool once it's verified.
