Finally the video I needed

Thank you for this video.

Superb tutorial, and a classic track. And, as a northern Englishman with Glaswegian grandparents, it's nice to listen to a tutorial given by a Scot! 😍

Such an awesome video thank you!

The best short and sweet video that explains things perfectly. Thank you ❤

Hi Simon, would love to see a deeper dive on setup possibilities combining the Push 3 with TR-8S for live play. I saw you did a video on another channel about this a while ago but would be great to go deeper. There appear to be a few different ways to combine these instruments, each with different tradeoffs. I'm currently, using mine with TR-8S Audio out -> Audio Interface, Audio Interface MIDI out -> TR-8S (for clock sync) as anything I tried with USB introduced unpredictable latency (if I compensated for the latency, that would work for a short while but would eventually drift). Seems to work quite well but curious to better understand other options and e.g. using some of the channels/controls on the TR-8S as midi controls for Ableton Live.

Great. Don’t need a 303 just a move

The frequency makes things sooooo good!

looks epic.

One other small point, when you say you can plug in any controller, i don't know at the moment how the levels can initially match up when you switch their assignment (e.g. switch to control a different device) if that controller doesn't have endless knobs / motorised faders? Or if that actually matters much in practice? (On my MPK mini at the moment with Live I'm still getting a jump in the value when I first turn it; i.e. the knobs aren't working as endless knobs yet, even though they are endless in this case).

Thanks, great vid! Very useful indeed! As someone starting out with push for the first time and planning to get the non-standalone version, is the workflow shown here with standalone largely the same for using it tethered?

Thank you so much for your videos and lessons❤

💜💜💜

Bummed I missed the live! Thank you so much for posting! Tuning in from Florida, USA ❤

This is the best tutorial to make acid that I've found! Thank you :)

Kinda disturbing when you make rapid little circles with the cursor - we can see it! It is a bright white arrow!! Don't have to jiggle it around!! the less you move it the easier it is to watch, and see what you're doing - good tutorial though!

These explanations were so good just earned a sub

The way you explain this is just gold !

this is a great explanation, thank you

super!

A++ rendition of one of the best house tracks of all time. perfection...

awesome

What a great sound design tutorial, which I understand and can remember, after 35 years of making music. Mega!

Thanks for this video mate!

We can feel the enjoyment! Really dope!

dude that hit and hope shit created the most disgusting tune ever what🤣🤣🤣

Braaavo!

thats funny i just laughed cause this is such an amazing video just smoked and am chilling doin my thing watching it while i do it this is the first time i actually was like wowww i feel like hes here now with me showing me. good tutorial

Amazing tutorial ❤

I am new to Ableton (bit of a groovebox hardware guy) but it came free with some hardware and more and more i see folk use live to finish tracks or prep sounds for their standalone machines so I figured I would start to learn it... I have now bought the Standard version of Live because I don't want track limits while I learn how to put tracks together but I notice it does not come with Analogue... Before I spunk a load of cash on instruments and plug ins... is there a way to make acid without having to pay for extra instruments or is there an economical way to buy what you would consider the essential Ableton Live "extras"? Also... Say you made a 303 pattern of 2 bars long... how do you record that sequence over a 32 or 64 bar sequence but adding automation of the filter and res?

Thank you for this. Really I appreciate you man.

brilliant thank you

Everyone talks about standalone version. Are all ports / connections and audio interface available in non-standalone version?

Can I ask a wee question. On a drum rack is there not a way to change individual levels out the box. How is that done as I spent a few hours trying to figure it out. Managed easy enough with maschine. Was easy enough to do full kit just not the individual levels. Feel I am being daft

just perfect, thanks for this insight! will get mine next wednesday, can‘t wait😊

Can you please make a new follow up to this (this long) with all your learnings?

been playing live a lot since version 3.0. recently got asked to talk at an event about push3 so this is a great warmup

Thanks so much for making this video. I know some people want to just see some quick presets and leave, but the way you explained what each option did and how it changed the sound was very helpful for me to wrap my head around it. Cheers, and I hope to learn more from you in the future!

'i can do that all day long' - we all know that feeling haha

u talk to much

Very nice explanation! Some acid sounds have such high resonance that it sounds wet and super sharp, had been difficult to recreate that, tips anyone on that?

Yeah wicked, really good. Loved that Detroit sound you got too! Thanks for sharing

quick tip that I use a lot that I didn't see here - if you hit "Duplicate" when, say, in the drum rack view, it'll duplicate the entire scene and seamlessly keep playing in the new scene. this is a really nice/easy way to build up variations on scenes/clips

Thank you, mate, this is great. Love the second half.

great hands on vid! So many Push3 vids out there where they're incessantly talking without *pushing* any buttons or actually demonstrating anything

This was such a great video. So helpful! Not sure if you're still checking comments but had a question on that External Device instrument where you sent the midi notes to the seqeuncer and the audio came back into the same channel. Have you every played around the the Microcosm Hologram? Wondering if you could do something similar w that, but I think you'd have to have an instrument that's playing a sound, the audio would route from push to the hologram, then audio returns back to that channel. I haven't figured out the best way to work w the Hologram and Push 3 in Standalone. Any suggestions welcome! Thx :)

Nice tutorial. What about if you want to replace a drum sound with a new sample, what's the workflow for that? Or what about if you want to design your own snare using a built-in drum synthesizer? Would love to see a tutorial for Ableton beginners showing the workflow for these types of things. Coming from the MPC, this was such an integral part of the workflow and you could just sample or resample and assign new things to existing pads on a drum program so easily. Trying to get a sense of whether the Push workflow is similarly straightforward.

Beautiful work, mate. Subbed.
