Any other finger drummers out there? I am playing with a band and each song has it's own drum rack. I am using the push 1. Is there a good way to change patches lon the fly? I don't love having 20 tracks in a set, but if I chain them and automate the chain selector to clips it doesn't update which pads are illuminated when I switch. Any ideas for a workaround?

You tried putting the 20 kits, each in one drum rack, inside another rack? Or put all kits in one and just slide to new pads with the pitchbend? I think you can put ten sixteen pads kits in there.

I don't recognise pads not updating either. Please describe your set up in more detail, or even better share it (without sounds).

I am using the 64 pad mode. So far each song has it's on drum rack and I really like using 64 pad mode and sprawling across the whole push.

Here is the video from a little example set I sent to Ableton support: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B5psd ... Tc4c19fTHc

They told me it is a known issue but there is no fix planned in the immediate future.
