My cat gnawed on a couple of the knobs on my Push (
NO KITTY ITS A BAD KITTY <read in Cartman voice>). Has anybody had to get new ones and where did you get them?

contact ableton about replacement knobs.
otherwise you'll have to get some standard D-shaft caps and hope the capacitive touch will work.
i tried replacing the Push knobs (just to test) with knobs from my other devices and none of them worked with the touch sensitivity.

You'd think there would be a replacement parts link on their site. Especially when you have components on your machine that no one can really emulate in the aftermarket(Example...mpc-stuff)
I would also like to know because I've been looking to get creative with my push's drab cosmetic appearance. I would love it if ableton came with a maschine approach to their flagship product.

They didn't charge me. I think they felt bad because my cat was destructive. I mean... it wasn't MY fault

Glad the Abes were able to sort it for you. Cheeky feline!

So they send the whole encoder assembly, or just the caps?!
(If the former: You damn cat! I hate you stop chewing on the knobs of
my Push. Off to call Ableton....
)

Just the caps. My cat wasn't a thief, just hungry

Too bad, because mine is
Still wonder what the whole assembly would cost (for all 8 ) and if I could give my old Maschine a nice upgrade this way
