One of the best demos of Push 2. No b.s. or babble. And some great music to boot. I've never been a huge fan of Ableton (I'm a 10-year Maschine user) but the Push 2 really does bring out a lot of great functionality with Ableton 10. I should revisit Ableton if I can ever afford a Push 2... haha. ;) Thanks for the great vid!

I have had my Push2 for about a year now. It is a complex machine for someone who only knows stringed instruments, but I have had a lot of fun on it and made some new songs and sounds I never could have come up with before. Your video was great to find as it clued me in to the functionality of some of the side buttons I've yet to press. Good review, thanks.

I know I'm being super picky but one of the things I dislike about the Push is that the knobs are above the screen. So when you're twisting the knobs your arm covers the screen so you can't see the changes you're making in real time. It would've made more sense to put the screen above the knobs so that you can see the changes in the parameters as you are twisting the knobs.

Not really. You have to contort your arm to get it out of the way of the screen. Not a great feature for live performances.

Honestly, even tho I got the push 2, it`s not made for live performances. Especially, cuz you don`t improvise 100 % of your live performances. You prepare them. In that means, you can simple map your functions on a 25 dollar midi controller with faders, knobs and pads. And for 40 bugs, you even get velocity sensitive pads. It`s a great piece in my studio, but deffenetly not made for live. You should get a launchpad pro, if you`re up 4 live, combined with a decent midi keyboard, including pads, faders and knobs. Map your projects on to your smaller controllers. Even effect automations, or trigger effects, insync, or autodidact. Otherwise get a mixer, cuz you simply don`t live stretch, resample or even create drumkits " on the go ". If so, the mixer / turntable is the nu,ber 1 way 2 go.

I looked at the LaunchPad Pro. I wasn't really impressed with the quality or functionality. The biggest let down for me on the Push has been the fact that what I do on the hardware doesn't show real time changes on the screen (software.) For example, when I'm browsing through sounds on Push, the screen on my monitor does not change. There's no way for me to see changes on my computer monitor as I'm scrolling through the sounds. Maybe I'm not doing something right or maybe I'm asking for too much. In any case, so far I haven't been super enthusiastic about the Push as I thought I would be. It's looking like I might end up returning it. But I'm going to give it a few weeks and see if I can overcome the learning curve.

You what, how? The hand does cover a large part of the screen, just not the part you're talking about... arms being anchored to our shoulders, so already coming in slightly angled, and the instinctive way to pinch a small object is with the hand at a further angle... like how you hold a pen. The reason we hold pens like that, twist knobs like that, is because the alternative is a weird stress position that will probably cause a cramp, fuck up your hand in the long run, and not allow you to see what the fuck you are doing.

Push IS NOT MADE for live perfs, the think behind push is to get better and faster workflow. WORKFLOW means 'during composition', during the writing process, NOT during live performance. For that there is the APC40MKII from AKAI, unbeatable on live perfs with ableton.

Nice vid, push2 is a big improvement over push 1, my additional favourite things: Being able to convert an individual drum rack pad back to a simpler instance. Means you can slice roughly convert to drum rack, zoom in on the slices you like and adjust then convert back to simpler for polyphonic play back Being able to assign the mod wheel to the pitch bend step by holding select and touching the touch strip The pads are so much better than push 1 as are the rgb leds used The colour coding of tracks which runs throughout the display, be that note mode or device parameters Being able to browse for samples and loops by clicking clip button on an audio track then browse The handling of device parameters and device chains is so much better on push 2 Could go on but think that will do. In summary I always found push 1 a little bit wanting and considered switching to maschine with push 2 I'm more than happy. Think ableton moving away from akai for push 2 was a really smart move.

I can't put my finger on what it is, but everything that comes out of PUSH sounds the same. It has a character to it. Whether it be a demo, or tutorial from Ableton, or any of the KZitem tracks out there. I'm not throwing anyone under the bus, and it certainly is a quality looking piece of kit...I was just wondering if anyone else noticed this.
@Mescaline82

Push is not an instruments. Push is just a controller, it don't produce, effect, transform or synthesize any part of any sounds. Its simply impossible that the character/coloring of the sound come from the Push itself. My best bet are either the stock reverb and delay from Ableton, The absence of coloring (most tutorial/demo may use basic tracks without special filter, EQ, effects, 3rd party synthesizer etc), the crappy sound quality of youtube video or a product of your imagination. When you pass a guitar or a synthesizer with character through ableton, you steel able to hear that character entirely, in contrary, uploading it on youtube will destroy a big part of the sounds...

maybe in your ears... But to say the truth i just think u r not considering that in a demo video is not important wich genre u choose for demo, the important thing is WHAT u can learn from that example. About sound quality that seems always the same, simply your words have no sense. I play with Ableton OR Reason OR Logic. If u was right, u should be able to reconize wich track i made with ableton... Do u accept the challenge???? I'll send you 3 of my trax, u have to guess the DAW...
@station2station544

In another thread we kinda figured out why everything sounds the same. Its the fact that people who write on the Push rarely change key signature. You can isolate a key signature on the PUSH for your melodic or bass lines as you know. So if you're starting in A minor for example, the artists writes everything in that key and never moves to the C or E, nor plays suspended 7th notes, etc. Typically PUSH tracks have been limited to those lit up notes in the forced scale and the artist never ventures out. So it's not the PUSH's fault. It's just a thing. I like the controller though...people just don't understand song structure. No offense to anyone. I couldn't figure it out for the longest time until someone else pointed out this fact. Cheers!

PUSH 2 is better than the launchpad, but at that price point I cant risk wasting money on something that I dont use (I use it mainly for composition).
