You'll need the power supply I'm afraid.
You can use Push 2 without it, but it's not a really enjoyable experience.
But then, I'd trade 10 Push 1 without power supply for one Push 2 with. Trust me, you won't regret it.

No, the greens and red of the pads if the track is that color is still a bit more muted than the active notes. Doesn't seem to be a problem at all, just tried it for you.

Thanks. I'm not surprised really. They think of everything. German engineering at its finest.

I'm just being curious Tarekith but what will you do with your Push 1 ? Are you planning on keeping it and try to use both ?

No idea yet. I have no desire to use both at once though, it really doesn't buy you anything. They both follow the same selections and what not, not really intended to be used side by side.

Maybe he should fix Volkswagen next (Comedic Snare Drum with a crash).
Can't wait to get my hands on push 2.

Looks like the prices are already dropping for the Push 1. $300 on craigslist now. Will probably go for cheaper in the coming weeks. I might consider having one again if I could get one for $250.

Thanks. I'm undecided whether to keep it or not, i was thinking I could maybe use both with pxt-live or time and timbre on Push 1.

Rock on! Mine should arrive tomorrow. I'm trying to figure out if my wife will notice that Push 2 has replaced the original Push..I really hope not.
