  • Hi all, I've been pratting about djing and making tracks on and off since since the early 2000's but pretty much stopped doing anything for the last 6 or 7 years. About a year ago I upgraded ableton to the full suite and bought a push 2 and it's the best thing I could've done, having so much fun, feels just like when I started getting into it in the beginning. I almost exclusively use ableton with a few native Instruments plugins, although I have bought a behringer crave and now resisting the urge to go down a modular rabbit hole (first baby due in April so probably not the best idea).

    I've put a few tracks on soundcloud, mix of breaks, progressive and technoish? I don't know it's all just dance music to me.

    From my brief look of this thread it seems a lot of you have gone full hardware where as I've jumped back fully in the box, going to have a listen to what you guys have been up to.

  • How did you find the learning curve on the Push 2? I've recently just got back into Ableton after a long break and thinking of getting a new controller.

    My Akai randomly adds pitch bend to notes about half the time, which can make things very confusing.

  • The learning curve is very gentle, everything just works brilliantly and there are so many different ways you can use it. If you're having random midi events with your Akai check the midi pane in the preferences and try toggling off the track/sync/remote buttons for your Akai. I had an issue with my novation remote sl keyboard that was sending random midi notes because of a midi conflict in those settings.
