Repeat Through MIDI Keyboard

Post by Noodles_ » Thu Dec 19, 2019 10:34 pm

Is it possible to use the repeat function (ie 1/8 note repeat) of Push2 but share it with my MIDI keyboard? I'm sure I could figure out how to do it via keyboard/clicks but I would like to use the Push2 as an interface for quicker switching during performance. Thanks in advanced :mrgreen:

To clarify, what you want is to be able to enable a repeat division on push that repeats notes when you press a pad but have the repeat effect play when you use your keyboard instead?

I do not believe this is possible since Push is a separate "outbound" device for Live so it would be like having a synth with its own ARP attached to the MIDI input of Live but having a second keyboard you wanted to trigger the arp on the first. YOu can do that with a synth if it has a midi input to allow control of its internal features/sounds but Push does not offer that since it is a controller.

Short of maybe some Max magic or something i'm not sure it would be possible

What do you mean with "sharing with your midi keyboard"?

I suppose you could set up a routing in which midi that came in from the push gets sent out to other midi devices, but that's more Live than Push related.
Would I be able to digitally 'daisy chain' from my midi keyboard (midi input) to the push (controller - to adjust repeat/arpegiator)?

I'm asking because as much as I love the push, I still feel more free creatively on the keys, but it would be nice to borrow the features of the push. I do not have a synthesizer or anything too fancy - just a solid yamaha keyboard
