Controlling drum racks sends from push

Post by grandpa sekno » Fri Apr 24, 2015 9:06 pm

Struggling to select a drum sound/channel from within push to then show up sends(which could then be controlled by push knobs).

Any help appreciated.

Even clicking on the individual channel with mouse(once drum rack is expanded) in session view does not show up mixer controls/sends etc on push screen.

It's not currently possible with the default Push controls.

You can either use PXT Live to access the controls (around $20 I think) or you can use various macro devices such at 16 macros or Multimapper (available on maxforlive.com) for free but you have to have max for live to use them. With these you can "learn" the send parameters and then select the device from Push to control the sends.

Thanks for your response. Thats unfortunate its not part of default push. Hopefully this comes with future updates.

I will look into the max for live workaround you mentioned as i have it...cheers
