Exactly... They have just decided that this is not a feature of Push....

It better!

Though I would hope that they don't wait for a paid upgrade to implement it.

As promised the next version of Oktopush is focused around the Utility nature of the Button Matrix and Encoders Editors...

It is one device that can be dropped into any template and configured to your choosing without the need for following the routing set up of the full Oktopush Performance template....

Here is the new Button Matrix Editor, i've massively reduced the number of objects in it which has seen the RAM usage drop below 2.5GB on my system....

Accessing the two banks available is by pressing Select + Note or Session, switching out is Select + Shift, this means it's a simple one handed action to switch between banks....

Image

It retains the ability to have dynamic mappings that follow the Ring Focus Box (Red Box) of the Push...

Image

And gives four options for Button Behaviour, this version adds Toggle + Velocity as an option...

Image

And finally allows a choice of LED feedback allowing for different visual feedback on the Push...

Image

The Encoders Editor has also been updated allowing up to six banks of Mappings with the use of the Select and Encoder Mode buttons (Volume, Pan & Send etc)

Image

After some further testing i'm anticipating to have this released in the first week of the new year along with a walk through video and updated manual....

Cheers
D

Looks really good and hits all the right notes.
I wonder though, why didn't you use the banking buttons (track state and track select rows) for switching the different encoder assignments. Seems more intuitive to me.
Unfortunately without individual AT to Midi CC assignments (which you said isn't possible to implement) I see no use case for me. :(




I'm honestly more and more thinking about selling Push again. It's just not flexible enough to warrant the high price of admission and it's really quite heavy to carry to gigs.

Encoder Buttons seemed more intuitive to me, plus it's possible to do this one handed which was important...

AT to MIDI CC, will not be possible, the signal just doesn't exist.... Get a BASE II and you'll find that feature in our Isotonik template....

I'm looking for a use case for my Push not for a reason to buy yet another expensive controller I can't afford ;-)

Btw, I'm already using my Maschine this way. Unfortunately that only has 16 pads instead of 64.
