No doubt. When it comes to sampling workflow, Maschine is a no-brainer. Especially if you've been on hardware like MPCs before, you know just how super fast and fun, hands-on sample chopping workflow can be:

Those videos were shared to serve as reference material in the quest of hacking together a more hands-on sampling workflow between Push and Live. Now go patch! Max4Live that shit up. I want those slices warping in realtime and audio waveforms popping on the display in ASCII.

I'm really digging on the device mode. Lovely implementation. Just wish we could dig in and out of MIDI & Audio clips in the same way.

THANK YOU SO MUCH

This is the solution and it allows me to chop audio and tweak it perfectly. I just tested it.

Are you saying that you can now control the sample start point and end point with push? And it would not change the global setting of each slice? Is there anyway to get a video of this or at least a confirmation of what it looks like in images? I am planning to get a push but the lack of maschine like control was the only thing holding me back.

Yes you are able to adjust the sample start/end points for each pad individually from Push. What you can't do is explained in my 1st post which in my eyes is all that's needed from the Abes to get this workflow down.
Why they left the Live API hobbled the way it is, is beyond me.

I agree. bump bump!

This would be amazing

Plus onnnnne

+++3 and

Multiple audio events per clip: Automatically cut up samples and rearrange them on the fly in the Detail Editor,
Mixer in Arrangement View...

Is this possible? What about max4life? This is the only thing I'm missing on my Push.....

I'm confused, when I go into Device mode and hit a pad, the pad just plays. I don't see what 'slots' at the top you mean on the Push. Could you please clarify? Thanks.

alexfsu if you take a look at this image and find the 'selection control' buttons.



When I said 'slots' I really meant these buttons. When you're in device mode in a DrumRack, the second Selection Control button in from the left will allow you to change the parameters for each sample pad using the encoders.
Try it:

• Enter Device Mode.
• press the second 'selection control' button from the left.
• Tap a DrumRack pad on Push.
• adjust sample start/end point using encoders.
• tap another DrumRack pad.
• repeat etc...

Sorry I'm so late in replying, I don't tend to lurk these forums as much as I used to; but I hope this helps.

is sample chopping in push possible now?

i will buy one if so

...you mean like that: https://www.facebook.com/video.php?v=10 ... =2&theater ?

no, not really, but thanks for the link.

Indeed. In fact it's more like.. THE LINK IN THE FIRST POST I MADE ON THIS THREAD.
