Hi everyone,

I have a workflow question regarding Push 2 / Push 3 in Clip View.

I often work with long audio clips (3–5 minutes), similar to a DJ-style setup. On Push, I’m in Clip View and can zoom in and out of the waveform, which works fine. However, what I’m missing is an easy way to reposition the visible portion of the clip relative to the playhead. At the moment, I have to use the jog wheel to scroll through the clip to roughly find the playhead, and zoom in or out with the zoom encoder. This feels quite cumbersome, especially during performance.

What I would like is behavior similar to Arrangement View, where the display automatically follows the playhead, and I can still zoom in and out to see more or less detail around the current playback position Ideally, the waveform on Push would stay centered (or at least follow) the playhead while playing.

My questions:
Is there a way to enable playhead-follow / auto-scroll in Clip View on Push?
If not, is this a known limitation or a feature request that already exists?

Thanks in advance for any insights or workarounds.
Best regards,
Chris

This works with MIDI clips, you can activate auto-follow in Note mode for the note sequencer (hold down the right arrow for a moment) and the clip view on-screen will follow.
I don't even remember trying with audio clips tbh, but I don't think it'll work.
