[PUSH] Send program change for external Instr.
Is there a way to navigate through MSB/LSB Program Changes via the Push Controller?

Re: [PUSH] Send program change for external Instr.
A work around would be each clip can contain a program change.
I have another controller that puts out Program Changes but even then I had to pick my favorite patches and put them on to the buttons I wanted.
Push I don't think will this out the box
Also I can't play multiple record enabled tracks with Push
Push seems to use all MIDI Channels, even if your using it only as the control surface
so I'm still trying to figure out how to have Push while still have my other MIDI gear.
I found this on the FAQ
Will it be possible to use another controller in conjunction with Push, e.g. one with bigger pads for tapping out beats?
Yes, select Push as control surface in Live's MIDI/Sync preferences and map e.g. the pads of a drum rack to the other MIDI controller of your choice. Make sure 'Track' and 'Remote' is activated for the one controlling the pads.
I can do this but when I put Push on a different MIDI channel ie: to Add a Bassline it cross plays all the track I have rec enabled regardless of having the MIDI channels set for each piece of gear. Manually mapping an APC40 uses MIDI channels 1-9 for god sake. Push offers me little hope of a integration with my current set-up.
I'm working on a new set-up but I really scared once I start making it Ableton will figure out how lame the Push is and add the features we've all asked for and really sohould have been there since the release.
so I guess to answer your question
NO you can't........

I can't wrap my head around how my decade old Novation SL will do program changes, but my my Push 2 will not. Such an unbelievable oversight.

Because you can't connect Push 2 to a synth directly. If it has to have a computer in between anyway, no sense of adding Program Changes to the hardware.touched1 wrote:I can't wrap my head around how my decade old Novation SL will do program changes, but my my Push 2 will not.

Push is a "Dumb Terminal" controller. The SL isn't.
