I’m guessing it’s a one way thing though, like with Ableton - once you open it you can’t transfer back again?
That’s how it seems. If you save it, the Push saves it as a new set with a new name.
One neat thing is that you can also browse all the samples in the project, including factory sounds and drum racks.

Apologies, I understand the resampling to a pad. But can it resample to how many bars your loop is?. Or is this a case of start and stopping manually to create a loop?.
When you resample, the transport starts as soon as you tap the pad you want to sample into. This makes it easy to sample a loop in perfect time, although you’ll have to trim the end manually
This is not actually necessary because the end of the sample is controlled by the note length. At least when the envelope mode is set to Gate.

When I do this I just let the sample choke itself when it comes back to the start of the bar. I just make sure that the sampled audio is a little longer than the loop
This update is radder than I thought. You can sample into drum rack the Move or in Note, and immediately open that in the Push.
I might set up a dedicated Move project with four drum samplers just for this.

This convinced me to buy a Move as a companion for my Push 3 Standalone, just ordered one. Shipping within a week, that’s not too bad.

You’ll love it
Edit: it’s now making me look at the Push 3

I’m far from a influencer, but the Push 3 is magic to me 
Thanks for sharing your presets, will sure use them

Even better if you save it to ableton cloud beforehand, then it get´s synced constantly

Yeah, this is really nice - a lot of my hesitation on Move was around thinking it just duplicates Push, was afraid that for me it’s gonna just be more stuff for the sake of more stuff, but between this and the controller functionality it seems like they’re gonna complement each other really well.
Couple of weird things though - the Cloud folder on my Push doesn’t just show the cloud sets, it has two folders, data and opt - out of curiosity I clicked through and eventually found the sets I’d uploaded from Note in a folder. It seems like this has to be bugged and I will probably raise a ticket, just wondering if anyone’s had the same?
Other and imho weirder thing, I was trying to pull a melodic sampler preset out of one of those sets to share here. It opens in both Push and Live as a simpler but when I go to save as a Note/Move preset, it says that simpler isn’t supported and it has to be drum rack. And for a pad created sampling and resampling to and from Note and the P-6 granular engine, drum sampler just doesn’t work at all.
I guess I could probably just export from Note(?), but it’s a bit puzzling that they didn’t have more of this figured out, probably will have to wait a couple of updates, but ideally I’d like to feed Move when it arrives with a bunch of presets/drum racks/chops derived from my existing Ableton library, looks like that’s gonna be pretty difficult to do. I did get on pretty much fine dropping samples into the templates and exporting to Note though, as opposed to converting existing stuff, so there is that.
When I bought the Move I knew you could create your own presets, but I had no idea you could create your own synth “machines”. Using these synth/drum machine presets makes the Move feel a lot like using the Syntakt!
Here’s my new FMDrumSynth preset.
Provides quick and fun creation of kicks, percussion, snares, hats and everything in between
Just like the Analog Drum Synth I posted previously, this is a “Drift Machine”. It loads on a synth track, so you can use to design your drum sounds from scratch, sequence it if you like and/or resample into a drum rack.

This sounds great! But I’m not sure exactly what you mean by “machine” in this case? Is it a preset that has certain basic parameters mapped to the macros?
Machines are really just Elektron speak. They are no different than a Move preset. Each machine or preset has an underlying circuit (or synth engine for the Digital machines) with carefully chosen parameters (macros) exposed and limited in their range to keep you within the confines of the chosen type of “machine/preset” (swarm etc.)
Edit: I guess Elektrons machines are more oscillator based, whereas Move presets can have macros from the whole synth engine so in that regard they are different

Just wanted to share a little trick I figured out (and in hindsight seems painfully obvious) for changing up your sound on different clips for variation.
If you go into loop mode and hold the first and last bar (by pressing the step buttons) it will make changes to all notes in the sequence. This also works for parameter locks. So let’s say you have a clip where you want a second variation with the filter open wider, full wet reverb, etc., without affecting all of your other clips you can duplicate your clip and do this and it will lock all those parameters for just that clip.
I was trying to do this with motion capture but I was getting annoying parameter jumps on the step where I was hitting the capture button. Then I had an “Oh, duh” moment and remembered you can use loop mode to change parameters for all notes within a clip.

Works for individual bars or a range of bars too

True. I also owe you due credit for pointing out you can just hold the first and last bar in loop mode, instead of having to hold all of them down simultaneously. That little tip fixed a lot of issues I was having trying to edit sequences.

@x0x these presets and machines are gold! I’ll get off my ass soon and make some too, unless you make them all first 
General question: do you all wish there was a second bank of parameters to work with? I got used to using 16 macros in Live and I feel this would really remove a limitation.
That, and an easy shortcut to switch banks. Maybe hold shift and turn the last encoder to switch parameter banks.

Yes I do, in every one of those patches I felt that I had to make compromises and wished I had a couple more macros. I didn’t know you can have 16 in Live.
