Custom Scales For Push 2/3 in Live 12?

Post by SuaDeBlade » Wed Mar 05, 2025 8:14 pm

I recently made the upgrade from Live 11 to Live 12 a while ago. Today i noticed that i can no longer create custom scales on my Push 2 with the method used for Live 10/11. Has anyone found a solution for this in Live 12? Or is there no longer a way to do this now? I know and understand how to use the Scale MIDI effect feature (i was using this since before the Push 1 became a thing), but it's really hard going back to using it over the scale feature provided within the Push 2, especially when the Push 2 is a big part of my creation process. Also i tried out the tuning feature in Live 12, but it's not the same. When you add custom scales to the Push 2, you dont have to worry about putting those scales in each of the 12 keys because the Push 2 is already set up to do that. With the tuning feature, i'll have to make each of the keys for each scale i want to add one by one. It works, but it would just be more tedious.

I am have a similiar question.

The melodic_pattern.pyc looks in Live 12 different.
Normally i could modify and add my own scales..

If i add my .py push 1 will not boot into Live 12.

From the new .pyc uncompiled i get headaches. Any Python-Specialist around who can give a hint or put some light on this ? // thx

Ok this is nice
https://tuning.ableton.com

I have a lot of sets with ClyphX where single Tracks trigger Push to jump to a custom scale i implemented to the melodic_pattern.pyc.
This seems not work correclty anymore.

As i understood at the moment we cannot add userscales to the Ableton Scale list like we could before.
Instead the Clips now jump to the prechosen or named Scales from the list. If Tuning System are active, the scale option vanish at all.

There should be an additional option that makes push show scales from a .pyc we can define.
