Yes, features like follow actions, bpm change via scenes, midi cc etc works when you transfer a Set with these features enabled, to push standalone.
Hah, naa, it was much easier than that cause OT wasnt involved.
Thanks! And im also very thankful to be accepted by Ableton. Lets see how things go…
Its impossible to say what future holds… However, i see myself (and many others) moved on from elektron to higher plains so I wouldn’t dream on going back currently, especially considering how the latest outputs from elektron are looking through my eyes.
I use the Octatrack as the mixer, effect unit and sampler player in my setup. Push does all of that in such a gracious manner inside Live territory - because Live is my DAW, this makes my end production after creating the music soooo much easier.
Push doesn’t have a fader but i have a midi controller which has 8 faders - so im sorted and to me, it takes the OT concept beyond as i can now mix scenes.
Push doesn’t have 4 inputs to mix. But 2 ins are enough for me for live playing. In studio, adat is always connected which is a huggeeee thing for me.
Octatrack doesn’t have cv gate out but push has.
No polyphony on OT.
Ultimately, I love the OTs instant audio recording. But its let down by lot of data management, you have to save buffers manually, you have to work around 4 parts etc… All of that is cured on push in my eyes. Instantly i can grab loops from any incoming audio n save hassle free without the unnecessarily limited 4 parts in place.
Of course, this is my workflow and push suits me very good. Others have different workflow and they need other features.
On the push, I miss the Rate parameter and instant parameter assignment to a scene from OT. And yea, push is no where near as playable as OT is, so push needs more prep. Rest is more or less very functional on push in a much more usable and studio friendly manner. Oh i also plug OT into push to record some loops. So i haven’t stopped using OT - its just retired and out of date for being the center piece in my liveset up.
