I really love the Standalone Push, but man it's big. It's not even backpack-able. I know it's wishful thinking, but boy I'd like a mini version, with half the pads, rounder corners, etc. :)
I would recommend the folks to use an antistatic wristband or at least to discharge Static electricity from your hands before handling bare electronics. ESD is a thing..
Let's hope the upgrade kits get better, over time. I realize its all proprietary for the Push and there is a lot of dev behind it, but it would be nice to see faster CPUs with more cores and more ram options, that can stay cool, in a NUC - in a Push. Let's also hope that battery technology continues to improve. While I wouldn't mind sitting on the couch and working on a cool idea, I also don't mind just being connected to Ableton and using it as a controller. Being a systems admin, watching this is sort of my nerdy fun. LOL
@@dpalaoro I believe I mentioned CPU, ram and better batteries. Storage these days is fast and cheap. 256Gb of storage isn't great either, these days. But, I also didn't buy one
@@dpalaoro the NUC unit is a bit weird, as it has the RAM and the CPU in it. While the SSD is sort of Push proprietary. I am holding off and waiting for, either a new Novation SL MKIV or an Arturia KeyLabs MK3
@@dpalaoro Yes, sort of - inside the NUC unit. You get a custom Push NUC, an SSD, a battery, and a heatsink, as listed on their site. I've already seen videos where people are DIY'ing the SSD to a bigger one and copying over the files, from the existing one, but that's a lot more in-depth.
the videos already assume people have the standalone version so i don't know what the point of this video is. i have the one without the processor and feel abandoned with respect to lack of instructions / introduction on how to use it.
Hi there! Push is currently in stock in Australia. You can check the availability by going to our online Shop and selecting 'Australia' at the bottom of the page: bit.ly/4bSNKuo. Cheers!
you mean the SSD? The ram is very likely not user upgreadable. The SSD on the other hand I think can be replaced with a standard ssd; but it requires you to set up the system on it.
Someone said: I bought a Push at the beginning was difficult to use but now continue difficult to use, now start collect dust in a corner of my room, is or not a good buy this machine?
$1049 is an utterly disgusting price for a few hundred dollars worth of laptop pc parts. We're talking a 300%-400% markup here and I cannot support a company who's baseless greed is laid so bare.
A company needs to be profitable to conduct R&D and develop new products. Don't forget the software side, UI/UX, of the standalone mode and all the R&D that went through to allow a smooth, fluid, and integrated user experience in the end. I see the same debate over OP-1 Field. Quality design and research have a cost! If you don't want to pay it , do it yourself ;)
Got mine (standalone, not the kit) yesterday but was so tired after work & family stuff, I'll probably open it today or even over the weekend! Excited :)
@@JerryCrow Pretty awesome, if you don't expect it to be full Live experience without the computer - it's pretty limited in that way, but I hope it will get better over time. Also, there are bugs and some weird or arbitrary design choices (e.g. when jog wheel's tilt works and when it doesn't). But I'm happy with it as an idea / sketch pad. I never expected more :)
I'm not planning to go DAWlesss anytime soon but since you asked...R&D? It's literally an Intel NUC that's stuck to the back of a mid controller that already existed. Parts Supply? You must be delusional. The parts cost 250 retail and even that figure is generous. It's fascinating seeing people like you stick up for companies like you owe them something.
@@papatoni3311 and that‘s why they‘re obliged to do it for 350 more? Btw the price was already down to 600. See what Moog or Waldorf are asking for their flagships, do you think they had much higher R&D cost? I‘m glad that in your world the software development is free of charge, especially for a device that runs it own specified OS with highly time dependent tasks!
Salute to the team that made this video. Well done 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
I could probably meditate using this video. Soooooo soothing!

Can you buy third party upgrade kits or is gonna be all Ableton?
The upgrade kit is sold by us on our webshop. If you open your Push and use components made by a 3rd party, you will void your warranty.
Why did y’all call it “Memory” when it’s an SSD? Weird.
It sounds better than SSD or Storage...
Why not design a removable panel over the compute unit so that the heat sink is in direct contact with it?
Uprgraded my controller to standalone, very easy to do. But 256gb is ridiculous for the price of the upgrade.
They're referring to a 256GB SSD as memory... :)
Do you sell or provide the pcb plans (for the processor) on its own so we can upgrade with 3rd party processor?
We only sell what is in the webshop here: bit.ly/47UpPrU
Lol you think they'd let a 3rd party get in on the profits here? Worst case it costs like 200 to produce the kit, thats 800$ pure profit babyyyyy

When will this be available in Australia? Upgrade kit still not available to purchase here… Feb 2024

Thank you..
Good stuff!!!
Will there be a tutorial for how to upgrade the memory?
Wait 2 years, buy new memory stick, watch this video
you mean the SSD? The ram is very likely not user upgreadable. The SSD on the other hand I think can be replaced with a standard ssd; but it requires you to set up the system on it.
Hi! If in the future we offer the possibility to upgrade just the memory, we usually have tutorials for such things.
@@el_daniso that's an SSD?? It looks like a ram stick. So then wheresy the ram at??
@@dpalaoro Probably soldered to the main board
Nice 💫
Ordered. Finally, I'm free.... for 2hrs at least!
this thing rocks so hard!!!

It will be £2000 for the i5 version 😂
2348€ für LIVE 12 und Push 3 WOW
$1000 for an i3, 8gb of ram and a 250gb ssd?! Holy Sh!t !!
Plus a battery and R&D costs of a not-so-big-company. Still, definitely a "healthy" markup.
@@mju135 And that i3, is probably latest gen, and it doesn't run Windows. It's most likely a stripped down linux version that ONLY runs Ableton.
Nobody forced you to buy, did they? R&D and parts supply is expensive or does any competitor deliver better?

This is a serious mistep for Ableton.
In what way?
2000$ for everything you must be crazy 😂😂😂
