After almost a year with Push, what's your final verdict on the device?

It's everything I hoped it would be. It couldn't make music without it anymore. It's my new go-to instrument.

It's cool and fun to use but it has many limitations, I still use normal keys and other controllers to make music.

It's impractical/I didn't like it and I hardly use it anymore now that the novelty has faded off.

Also for the use of Aftertouch, I find the pads lose contact too soon, which often leads to an involutary retriggering of the pad (if I set the sensitivity to something like -12). This in turn cuts off the release phase of the sound..... :(
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Tom, you use Sampler a lot don't you? I've just tested a random pad - Cybernetics Pad. in the MIDI tab, I chose aftertouch to control volume, Amount turned up to 100. It was very easy to achieve a consistently changing aftertouch volume from 5 up to 128.
Maybe the problem comes when I set it up to less than 100% (Which I often do because, I dose how much i.e. the filter freq is influenced in relation to the LFO speed - which btw, leads to awsome effects :)).

But the bigger problem is, that if I want to get the last out of the aftertouch and have very light pressure, the contact disrupts, and with high pad sensitivity imediately triggers again. Thus disrupting the release phase of the note. This sounds bad as you can imagine.
Yes, that's no good. Hopefully you can find a compromise somewhere in the middle.

Also, milk+VanillaProteinPowder+coffee+AeroHotChocolate=refreshment. Highly recommended to all.
