THANK YOU SO MUCH!! I knew this was coming, somebody mentioned it on Reddit - It’s because Push 2 is now using the same “protocol” as Push 3. Thank you for reminding me. This is really amazing omggg
Good info and nice channel great talent. I use my Push 2 and 3 and have more pads and clips to launch, but you have to use an additional laptop and send it to your mixer like my Tascam DP24 which will run into your audio interface. It works great.
anyone know how to toggle between the functionality shown in the video (up/down arrows movw the focus box one scene) and where the up/down arrows select and launch the next scene?
Sheesh I was just thinking why push 2 can't display session view because essentially it's just showing the same thing as push 3 and I searched on the internet and that's how I ended up on this video I wanted this from the day I bought push 2 to be honest this feature was must have this helps to look less at ur screen and more on the push I don't think u need to look at the screen now and push 3 is expensive so I am happy that push 2 is still relevant specially in a country where push 3 upgrade kit won't be available so either u have to buy push 3 standalone or you have to buy push 3 controller version and struck with it and both were not bundled with Ableton so you have to purchase it separately so I am happy that now I really don't need push 3 atleast for now
This makes the Push 1 act a little funny when you go into session view. The issue is that whats being displayed on push 2 display screen is no longer displayed on Ableton main window.
I cant seem to navigate though properly on the push 2 as if i scroll down to the next scene it automatically launches every clip in that scene... Not sure if I am doing something wrong or the functionality is not there on push 2 but would be amazing to be able to launch individual clips as well as a whole row. Maybe that isn't possible on push 2. Any ideas?
I also had this issue and have somehow managed to toggle to the behaviour shown in the video (and what my Push2 did in Live 11) of the up/down arrows moving the focus box and not launching the scene BUT I HAVE NO IDEA HOW I CHANGED IT 😂. FYI the behaviour you describe at the end can be achieved if you switch you Push2 into 'clip mode' via the Settings button.
Ok..may have found the answer but is a bit quirky with what messages get overlaid on the session view... For me, in NOTE mode the up/down arrows perform the 'select and launch' function, while in SESSION mode they move the focus box. Note mode does give some unwanted messages though and sometimes seems to not allow scene change because of something else it is expecting like 'push up arrow for...' means the up arrow doesn't select and launch the above scene, unless I press a couple/few times. Is it a Beta feature maybe, that still needs some ironing out?
ok, slight update as even is Session view it did the select and launch thing... Toggling between Note and Session seems to get it to behave as I described. Not exactly confidence building. I may be missing something though
@@allanyoung4221 hey thanks Allan for your response! I think I have it working like you said... Session (while in that clip view) at least allows you to see the clip names etc then launch them from the Push buttons which is handy - not the same as launching from note mode but its something and like you said maybe it will get an update. Either way I wasn't expecting it so its a bonus! Cheers man
Why would someone buy a Push 3 for this feature alone?? They'd have to be mental. There are HEAPS of other reasons to upgrade to a Push 3, this is just an extra convenience button. Also, this feature didn't appear in Live 12 for Push 2 by mistake - Ableton specifically used development resources to add the feature. I'll give you my bank details so you can send me the five bucks 😂 (JK... But honestly, look at Push 1 - it still gets updates. Ableton have been pretty good at supporting their older hardware)
Ableton officially stated this feature will be on the push 2 on Facebook when I asked the question a few weeks ago. Standalone and MPE are the selling points on push 3. It’s a smart move. Having push 2 as an entry point into the Ableton controller ecosystem makes sense. As the updates come, better MPE instruments etc will make moving to push 3 and a suite license a no brainer.
This is one of the reasons we love Ableton, they give back with their legacy design
yes!
It's been known for a while, yes great addition and nice that Ableton keeps updating push 2

Glad to help!
Great news. I just started using Live and picked up a mint push 2 for super cheap. Thanks for the info, now just waiting for my 12 Suite to drop
Yes yes!
Thanks so much for the Push 2 tip with the session view! 🔥
it helped me save $1000 on a new push 3
ha you're welcome!
I posted this as a feature request immediately when I saw the Push 3 session view. So glad to have this!
yes!
Bro yesssss!?! I’ve been hoping for this on the Push 2 and they finally did it. 🎉🎉🎉
Thanks for the tip mate. 🤘🏽🌌
my pleasure!
Great vid, push 3 is awesome
This is so exciting! There's a lot that's new on the Push 2 with 12. I just noticed you can tag for collections as well.
yes yes!
That is so dope! Thanks for sharing this find!!!
You bet!
At the 2 minute mark. U can stay in note mode and click the jog wheel to launch scene
Thank you!

yes true!
Woah! Great discovery!
Glad you think so!
I thought there was a mistake in the title... Awesome !
You can even save and load songs on push 2 with Ableton 12: Shift or Select + Session!
thx for the tip!
I gave you a like and subscribe for this one! First time on your channel and def appreciated the info. Great work, and quality vid!
Welcome aboard! thanks for the love!
i noticed my push 2 pads are much more sensitive in live 12 🤷
interesting!
anyone know how to toggle between the functionality shown in the video (up/down arrows movw the focus box one scene) and where the up/down arrows select and launch the next scene?

amen glad to help!
That is sick !! Thank you :D
Just trying this out now! Nice. Does anyone know if proper note editing is possible on it now? Or reckon they’re keeping that Push 3 only?
good question not sure!
Nice find. It'd be great if you could hook up Push 2 with Push 3.
Amen to that
Oh but I did ;)
Unfortunately it loses control surface capabilities (for clyphx etc)
Good to know thank you
This makes the Push 1 act a little funny when you go into session view. The issue is that whats being displayed on push 2 display screen is no longer displayed on Ableton main window.
probably should just upgrade finally lol.
haha thx for sharing
Does anyone know if the new midi features will be available on the Push?
good question!
.... is push 2 seen as a standard lcd in live 12 ?
PusheR3 for reason on the push3 lets you see all sorts of stuff on your screen
Can you have session view on the push two while also controlling instruments?
you can be in note mode on the pads while doing this yes

Hey im torn between used push 2 and push 3 controller ver. For drums fingerdrumming and chopping samples. Which one do you recommend?
3 def has more gas but 2 works perfectly if price is a big factor
Five bucks says they will patch this functionality out now. People will pass on the Push 3 for the Push 2 over stuff like this.
We shall see

Its an official new Feature for Push2 Owner and known for Weeks Guys 🤦🏻♂️

@@thepanicroommastering2062 funny enough, many Ableton employees did not know about it when I asked around.
Thx for watching 🤙🏼
Does this work for a Push 1?
I’ll have to try it!
u need 2 get a push 3 bro
i have one!
