Drumkit record button bug?
Posted: Tue Nov 29, 2022 1:19 am
Hi all!
Let me start by saying I'm new to Push (about a month) but have been producing with Ableton for close to 2 years and in other DAWs for over 10.
I may be doing something wrong, but suspect I may have found a bug. When working with this Beastly Drumkit (one of the stock Ableton kits I believe), I run into an issue where Ableton will start new clips in ways I don't expect it to.
If I clicking around with my mouse on other tracks/scenes, the track with the drumkit will start new clips (or amend existing clips) in the same scene as I just clicked on in another unarmed track. This only seems to happen if I click around, THEN arm the drum track. Once this is done, when I press record a first time on Push nothing happens. Then (thinking I haven't pressed hard enough), I hit record again on Push, and Ableton will either create a new clip on my drumtrack if the slot is empty, or try to amend whatever clip is already in the scene I accidentally select when clicking around.
I'd just like to know if this is the intended function, or if it is a bug? As I mentioned, Push is very new to me so I'm not confident enough to call it a bug myself (yet).
Here is a video that illustrates the issue (for my friend "Rachel" who is helping me tackle this as well).
