Drop me a comment here, let's share the knowledge. Thanks guys!
I set up a template with instruments and effects racks and use Push to live sample (into clips) various hardware instruments, add more sounds/tracks etc. It works pretty well, it's quite similar to how I use Octartrack. Push 3 standalone software has ways to go still, so I tend to use it in controller mode with a laptop.
Oh that's interesting! I've heard from a few people now that are considering switching their OT for Push Standalone in the future. But agree with you that the software still has ways to go. But I'm assuming it's a device they will support over years with firmware updates (like Elektron does) to make this machine really shine.
Oh maaaan this look so fun. The sound you achieved is so goood. I can see where there are some limitations, but it's the sort of thing that, in standalone, would encourage me to just move onto the next thing and get the basics of a whole song started. I could see myself being very productive with this. I'm getting one. For sure.
Cheers Remy! Yeah it’s the same with me - I actually use it quite a lot in different ways. It’s very versatile and I love that about the Push Standalone. So much yet to explore and Live 12 is just around the corner, which I’m pretty sure will bring Push Standalone to the next level
Sehr cooles Video! 👍 Ich freue mich schon total auf deinen Push 3 Content. Ich benutze momentan selbst den Push 2 und spare auf den Push 3 im Standalone-Modus. 🤗 Tipp: Um Parameter auf 0 zurückzusetzen, kannst du einfach den "Delete"-Button gedrückt halten und den gewünschten Knopf berühren. 😉
Danke dir Morel, auch für den mega Tipp mit dem Parameter! :) Das ist super hilfreich. Ich habe gerade mal einen Kommentar hier unter dem Video erstellt, damit andere User den Tipp auch finden. Viel Spaß mit Push 2, ist auch ein fantastischer Controller muss ich sagen. Hatte über Jahre extrem viel Spaß damit. :)
It is just so much better on Push 3 than on Push 2. But I don’t really understand why Ableton doesn’t implement this on Push 2 better. Yes, it doesn’t have the jogwheel but you could use one of the encoders in clip mode for that.
It's implemented so badly on Push 2, I thought I was doing something wrong at first. It's also so badly implemented, and this is the real workflow killer for me, that I sometimes end up gravitating to the mouse to edit midi!
Inspiring to see you working on it already, even if you’ve only had it a few days. Early in the video you show the effects on the master track that are applied just to the melodic elements. How did you set this up? Surely the drums go through the master track too? Eagerly awaiting your future Push 3 videos, and how you get it hooked up with your other gear.
Thanks a lot Smerin! I'm actually planning a video on that for the future but basically it's a mix of Map 8 and MultiMap M4L devices that are grouped in an Effect Rack and control multiple sends on the 8 instrument groups in the template.

@@MilesKvndra ah yes, that makes sense. I’ll definitely sign up to your Patreon in the new year, least I can do for all the inspiring content you share!
What‘s for sure: This device sounds absolutely pristine! Thanks for the insight and keep these videos coming! Is this standalone template in your Patreon?
You're right Dani and thanks a bunch for the positive feedback. And yes, I just uploaded an updated version of the Project Template to my Patreon, which is now compatible with Live and Push 3 Standalone. You can find it here: www.patreon.com/posts/ableton-template-94764909?Link&
Well done Miles! Great video quality and great knowledge you spread here, appreciate! Do you have any comparison to the Maschine plus? Are the two devices similar in their features and workflow? Anyhow, have fun with it and hopefully you can spend more time with it over the holiday time ;-)
Thanks so much dude and good to see you here as well as on Threads! :) Unfortunately I've never had my hands on any Maschine so I can't really say how it compares. I had the Push 2 before and that switch was very smooth and easy, as workflows are quite similar.
@@MilesKvndra yep, followed on every channel 😄 Okay thanks anyways! I think i’m more into maschines workflow cause i never really clicked with the push. But i will think about a good while and decide later 😊
I'm a push 2 user and former maschine MK1 user and even though I loved the jamming aspect of maschine. I just found it too frustrating moving from sketch pad to finished track. With push you are already there with the idea sketched out in Ableton.
I would like to see you making a full track (maybe 3 minutes long) only with push 3 and it's devices like wavetable without using pc. Let's see it like a challange. Would be cool to see what you can get out of the box. And certainly inspiring for others who have decided to use the device to get away from pc... What do you think? Could be fun, right!
That’s a nice idea. Actually in the background I’m tacking this track from this video already further and see how far I can push it (pun intended). Let’s see when I find time as I will be offline most of January. Happy new year!
Happy new year for you as well, thank you. Yes, the track from the video does have already potential. Has something of recondite. At least it reminds me of the style. I would also get the Push 3 if, technically speaking, it had the same potential as the Elektron sequencer. Ess from fors has almost done it with the opal synth. He may have received approval from elektron to do so. If push could do something like that, it would already be the heart on my desk. Although I would then no longer need a desk (PC screen, etc.). It should also be very comfortable on the couch ;) @@MilesKvndra
Ich mag deine Videos und bin eben auch mal Deine Gearliste durchgegangen. Was ich leider nicht gefunden habe sind deine Stative die du in deinen Shots verwendest. Hast du dazu eventuell auch Links? Grüße
Danke dir Dominik! Meine Standstative sind Tripods von K&F Concept, von denen hab ich mehrere mit denen ich sehr zufrieden bin. Das Tischstativ für die Top Down Shots ist von Infuu Holders, allerdings haben die das Modell leider nicht mehr im Portfolio.

Hi Miles, I am a big fan of your music and your videos, thanks for sharing all these! One practical question, how is the stability in standalone mode and especially with sequencing external gear? I am considering buying the Push 3 standalone (found a great deal for 1500 including suite 12) and pairing it up with my OB6 desktop. Reason I ask is that there were a lot of complaints when the device was just out. So wondering where we stand after almost a year of updates.
Hey, thanks for the lovely feedback! I have to say so far I've only used it in standalone mode for sounddesign and one time with a small project where I had the Sub 25 connected via USB for MIDI. This worked great and I didn't experience any glitches while sequencing it. I also used for my last live gigs the Push 3 as an audio&midi interface which also worked super smooth without any issues.
I’ve seen a lot of people talking about updates that would be great and “for now it can’t blank” on every video. Has the push 3 actually gotten any firmware updates??
It has, however some of the basic UX design issues like the LFO being not assignable haven’t been addressed. However, I have to mention that I didn’t try the most recent Push 3 update they released for Ableton Live 12
This community is awesome! 💜 You solved my questions I had in the video so I'll just drop that here for other users:
- adding items to different collections: just spin the encoder above "Favorite" to choose the collection(s) and then hit the button (thanks kevinbraiden9142!)
- snapping a parameter back to 0 / default: hold the "delete" button and touch the encoder you want to reset (thanks morelricht8013!)

Great video! Excited for you. Would love to see a video on how you create your master chain. Thanks for the resources and inspiration!
You're welcome! And yeah, that's a video which is already on my list to make :)
Great vidéo again ! Realy simple and easy to understand. I cant wait to receive my push ! Have a good year ending
Awesome to hear, thanks so much for your feedback! And have fun with your Push :)
Lovely video, nice seeing you build the start of a track and explore your new machine. Cheers M!
Thanks a bunch buddy! Happy that you dig it - keep on jamming too and bring the tunes on Massive Radio 💜

The midi edit part you highlighted early on is probably the most compelling argument I've seen to move from push 2 to push 3.
It is just so much better on Push 3 than on Push 2. But I don’t really understand why Ableton doesn’t implement this on Push 2 better. Yes, it doesn’t have the jogwheel but you could use one of the encoders in clip mode for that.

When it works it’s great. Buggy af though
At 18:31 - Adding items to collections...just spin the encoder above "Favorite" to choose the collection(s) and then hit the button.
Maaaaan that is it! Thanks so much for sharing, that's great. But there still isn't a way to rename the collections, right?
Cinematic bro
The Thing!!!
Yeah!

Thank you! Glad you dig it :)
Would love to see someone make a multi song live set with push 3 stand-alone for live performances
That’s definitely doable. For now I don’t want to miss my Sub 25 for the sessions but would love to make a Push 3 + Sub 25 liveset in the future. :)

Btw you can change the MPE on the settings screen to finger and it won’t affect where you hit
