I'd say it's been a pretty good month since getting this. The integrations is nearly seamless. What it does it does exceptionally well. I've improved my ability to work in live FAR beyond where I was w/o it (not that I couldn't jam with live) Love how for a non-keyboardist like me it has "scales" which brings a certain creative aspect...not necessarily cheating, but just more creative*
Obviously, it's a blast.
I question a couple of things. Seems to be too picky at times. If I hold down a c major chord, sometimes the note/off happens to easily, thereby having a jump in the midi chord. I've never run into this with a keyboard.
I also have a hard time seeing some of the tabs EVEN WITH the power supply on.
The sensitivity is easily changed, but I still feel the pads are not quite as good as maschines.
Plus I haven't even begun to explore all the clyphex/PXT/audiomoder stuff. Been to busy playing around and learning

I'm having a similar experience.
I would even go so far as to say that Push is currently my favorite midi controller overall.
I didn't expect to like it this much.

I hate the fact that it works so well ... easier workflow with live would be nice to have though!

I'm using Push and Live 9 in anything I do, in stage or in the studio. so excited with the "Ableton Compatibility Mode" in the Numerology 4. Specially if it integrate well with Push.

Hey guys, just want to let you know that, as fans of Audiomodder's work mentioned in this thread, we decided to do something similar for Sylenth, Diva, Mini V and Modular V (more coming soon). That is, we've created packs to allow you, in return for a small fee, to instantly browse, load and control the factory presets of these Vsts (and record automation) from Push. When we bought Audiomodder we thought, 'well this is something we could have done ourselves BUT it would have taken weeks and having it all done instantly is worth the modest fee'. Hopefully you'll feel the same way about our stuff. Check it out if you want at: http://mabelton.myshopify.com
Thanks and take care

As an alternative to racking presets you could use a Midi translator to use Push user mode to trigger shorcuts and navigate through VST presets using arrows, here is how: https://forum.ableton.com/viewtopic.php?f=55&t=196730

Yep that is one solution that works OK and we've tried it. But it does involve switching frequently from user mode to play mode, looking constantly at the computer screen to see what presets you're looking at, and using the mouse on some Vsts. So in some respects what you're doing is giving Push, in user mode, the functionality of your computer keyboard (ie still needs computer screen and mouse). The advantage of racked, configured presets (as with ours and audiomodder's) is that you can browse and load the presets from Push's screen in normal mode like you can with Ableton's instruments. In an ideal world though the makers of popular Vsts would get together with Ableton and make them 'Push ready'!

I wonder how many people have been push-ed over the edge because of this thread?
It's at least one, as it definitely happened to me. Make sure you contact Ableton for some commission hibidy!
