Hi everyone,

We have taken down the link for the tool, it is not yet ready for public testing. We anticipate a version of the tool to be available in a forthcoming public beta.

Thanks again for your patience.

My pads are now much much better after using the calibration tool. I can now use skindefault without cramp-crying in bed at night, which means that rainbow push more or less is dead. This is good news.

Glad I saw it and snagged it when I did lol

Ready for public testing or not, I am ready to do some private testing of my own...

I'd rather not wait another 12 months for them to get around to making it "official"

LOL

I have been busy and haven't had a chance to mess around with this yet.

Anyone else who got a hold of it wanna share their findings using the tool?

Missed the tool before they pulled it but glad to hear they are working on it. Just got another push from sweetwater, they had to wait a couple months to find one with minimal discoloration. It's still not 100% but close enough to keep and wait for the tool.

Wow. I saw this before I got my Push and it convinced me to buy it new instead of used so I could return it if it looked like this. Thankfully, mine is NOTHING like this. I have some color inconsistency (some weird colors in the white) but I only see it when I'm really looking for it.

Mine's a lot better than it was before, but still quite a lot of differences between pad tints and brightness. The pink is gone, which was my biggest issue with it before. But the corrected pads are still darker than the normal white pads. I've gone from having mismatched colors, to mismatched brightness

This is mine. Quite a lot of pads are pinkish. What do you think? Should I return it / wait for this calibration tool?

Yeah, the colors are better, but the calibration tool needs a brightness control as well as color... If I could also edit the brightness, I would be satisfied with my Push.

Yours looks fairly good actually... the calibration tool should take care of that

Here is my Push after Callibration... The callibration tool needs a brightness control as well. It is way better than that horrid pink, but not there yet!




Here was what mine looked like before callibration

My Push is pretty much like yours, I'm also hopeful that their calibration software will be re-released soon. The good news is, when I'm not playing it, I can use it as a nifty Christmas ornament, after all Christmas is just 2 months away.

Is there a way to share that App with those of us still wanting to give it a try?
