I think it’s an Ableton product.

it’s definitely an amazing thing to be able to knock out a live set without a computer. distraction free creative sabbatical without internet or screens, return to civilisation when you’re good and ready to arrange and master lol

One main advantage is that it s a self contained device that doesn t stop working if MS/Apple/Linux/… decides to for example change it s driver model or when an update breaks something.

Intel i3 with 8gb of ram… definitely would worry about how easy it would be to bog this thing down. The 1k version as just a nice MPE controller seems almost more interesting to me.

I absolutely LOVE the option to retrofit the standalone option and maybe even upgrade it at a later point in time. Also the fact that this effectively breaks down the hefty 2k price into to seperate sub 1k purchases is brilliant.

I’m not familiar with Push, and I never use MPC or Force with a computer so it is safe to say I’m not the target market, which was why I asked the question. But I still think it is interesting.

There is now. On Push.

I had been considering an Oxi One but this sort of offers an interesting alternative in some respects. If Ableton had more built in step sequencing tools it would be a slam dunk for me. I’m a little bummed out it won’t support VST’s though. While I like some of the Ableton plugs, they’re not remotely my primary tools.
Still, wonderful to see an upgradable device. Bravo.

Yeah since I bought Ableton earlier this year and am really enjoying it, this seems like a no-brainer to me. Gonna grab one as soon as my income becomes more consistent.
I’ve wondered about that too, no linux but they have their own audio interface so they could tune pulseaudio/jack and somehow compile the core, from what I gather only native instruments/ effects are available in standalone so no vsts or gui to deal with
there’s no detached windows/osx, right? right???
Ordered.

Damm…im stil on Push1. Thought id wait for Push3 before upgrading. Quite a price jump. Was hoping in the 500/600 range.

But it will support M4L “plugins” of which there are plenty. So there’s that.
