Did you have to first go into global mode and select push live mode for this to take place. I tried both ways and I still couldn't get anything MIDI mapped from user mode?

1. switch to User mode (press User button once)
2. got into midi map mode in Live
3. click on the global record button
4. press the pad you want to assign the global record button to (it want work with the black buttons since they function as momentary ones)

You could save this mapping with your default set so you only have to do it once.

Doesn't work... Live does not respond to anything from Push once in User mode

Sorry, that's not too clear, on my Push all the buttons are black?

Just tested it again and it works as described in my set up. How do your MIDI Sync preferences look like?

By pad I mean a pad of the 64-pads grid, the ones which send notes and not CC messages (here's an overview what Push sends in User mode: http://julienbayle.net/ableton-push/#usermode)

Had to turn 'remote' on for Push then it worked! Thanks!!

thank you that can be helpful for now I just midi mapped my little Korg Nano Pad2 that I never use to record button and put it down by my foot and use it like a foot pedal midi trigger to punch in and out of record when I want to.. damn thing finally has a use now, I originally bought it for the XY pad but gave up trying to midi map those in ableton..

is there a knob on push to adjust the headphone/prelisten volume?

You're welcome

Et voilà: "In all modes, the ninth encoder controls the volume of the Master track (or the Pre-Cue volume if Shift is held.)" (https://www.ableton.com/en/manual/using-push/ Display/Encoder Section)

Edit: just saw in another thread that you found the answer yourself
