Re: Push3 on 12 vs 11

I don’t think you gave anything to worry about in 11, even for the full life cycle of your projects from idea to final bounce down. Many of the navigation features came to push 2 with these updates, and Push 3 was launched on 11, had a release schedule that matched every update of 11, and updates to...

Re: Using Push 3 for live performance… problematic

As for answer 1) I meant Scene view on the display. The last of the 4 encoder-view options, Device, Mixer, Clip, Session/Scene I’ll correct that now.

If you navigate to a highlighted clip, you can launch it without loosing focus of the instrument track you are playing from

Re: Using Push 3 for live performance… problematic

All in all, you are not wrong for butting up against its limitations, and MPE is already a per channel basis, I wonder how that would work? You’re playing the keyboard into the push, but the push into the keyboard renders the polyphonic aftertouch unusable? Try configuring an MPE Control device in l...

Re: Using Push 3 for live performance… problematic

3) I made a tutorial leveraging macrobats, which are racks with altered functionality, also the brainchild of Stray. What Push doesn’t have is a single view for Trim pots. Any mixer channel would have a crude gain for corralling gain structure, which then leaves the faders for mixing. These “trim” d...

Re: Using Push 3 for live performance… problematic

2) user mode is truly leveraged when you subscribe to additional python scripts, like clyphx. Stray was recruited by the Ableton team, so you’re now seeing these development cycles at the rate of Ableton. You are not late to the party: we’re all waiting for when user mode will be formally implemented.

Re: Using Push 3 for live performance… problematic

Hi! Well for 1) couldn’t you a) set your settings to clip launch mode (rather than scene) b) perform in session/scene view c) navigate to the clip you wish to record, all while remaining on the track you are performing from? You could even use a pedal to punch record and not take your hands off the ...

Re: Workflow: Ableton Mixing => Push 3S Performance

Well played! Yeah, I was trying to constrain to vertical in session mode for you. That was tight. Yes, loop shortcut to selection is definitely your friend. Interesting: the render approach then leaves you with the running clips? Whereas my approach leaves you with the cluster of tracks. Less need f...

Re: Sends and returns with ADAT

Off the top of my head, sounds like you want to create an effects insert with the ADAT i/o The EXT Effect device needs to be configured in Live, then saved as a preset on the Push (if you’re using push standalone), then placed inline on any track with which you’re applying it, grouped track, or send...

Re: Tip: how to avoid to accidentally copy a clip into the adjacent track (almost).

I’m already interested in your clphx scripts

Off the top of my head, maybe just use shortcuts and arrow keys? Cut, down arrow, paste?
I do like your audio track sandwich approach. So long as you visually find this functional.

Re: Workflow: Ableton Mixing => Push 3S Performance

One idea might be to drag clustered of selected tracks into your current project folder in the browser. Then create a new session comprising of only those groups you need on the standalone. Or save as, and first pull whatever supporting tracks you don’t want on the push out of those groups. But a gr...

Re: Push 3 Standalone owners: Happy?

Yes, I’m happy with my push. And I’m happy with the standalone features. I’m not exactly happy with the timing of the expense, but having been on Live since version 2 (seeing the first duos playing on 1), I figured my certification could be a very real thing in the foreseeable future. So instead of ...

Re: Advice on mic purchase for Push 3 recording ?

Yeah, this question kicks around when folks report low output levels or things not matching impedance with their instrument input. You might want to consider something that takes an AA battery, or some form of self-power like an old Nakamichi...

Re: Using Push 3 to record a vocal mic signal

tell me, now that you have the phantom power, do you see a meter, however weak, if you choose the line or instrument setting? You can add up to +20db of digital gain to an input signal, which won't add to the noise profile of the preamp, so you might want to explore backing off on your input gain se...

I didn’t try.

Re: Max For Live Packs that don't work on standalone

I’m away from my studio. Chiral has seen updates over the course of rolling out live 12. I don’t recall seeing a modulation table, so is it fair to say that it’s 100% compatible? And version tracking is easier to accomplish when youre buying the license directly from the developer. Where would you l...
