I look forward to seeing this product’s evolution over the years.Ībleton Push 3 standalone is available now for 1899€. Push 3 is a powerful device because it gives you Ableton Live in hardware, thanks to the internal instruments, it’s also a versatile multi-voice Synthesizer and MPE controller. But for those who are heavy and “live” users of Push 2, this could be an exciting product. I think anyone who doesn’t get along with the Push 2 will not become a Push standalone user either. I’m curious about the performance and how harmonious the whole thing is. VST support was not to be expected because integration always leads to problems. As an active Push 2 user, more display would not be bad. Yes, I would have liked a larger display. I hope I made the most important points of Push 3 clear to you. A better decision than Native Instruments with the Maschine Plus, which relies on an Intel Atom.

I particularly like that Ableton allows users to decide how to start with the Push 3. All your data can be transferred back and forth using the built-in WiFi module Plus, you get 256GB of built-in storage, giving you plenty of space for using Ableton Live’s stock instruments and effects, along with your own packs, and sample libraries.

Before questions come, no audio over USB is not possible. So you can instantly connect MIDI controllers to it. Another cool addition is a USB MIDI host port. There are also two stereo CV/gate signals (4 mono signals) for interacting with your modular or analog gear and a MIDI in/out. It also hosts ADAT input/output sockets for additional inputs and outputs. Push 3 now comes with a built-in 2-channel audio interface for recording directly into your Push set or into Ableton Live. The MIDI and standalone versions benefit from this. Push 3 has taken a big step in connectivity. Then there is a new big knob on the right side and some additional buttons on the interface. These were all secret preparations for the Push 3 hardware release. And now, the many MPE updates from Live in the last few months make sense. A nice extension that takes the Push controller into new fields of expressivity. It allows you to play bends and slides, filter or affect some notes within a chord, or play multiple articulations within one pad. The new version comes with 64 newly-developed MPE-capable pads that detect finger pressure and placement across X and Y axes for nuanced per-note control.

You get everything from Ableton Live, including Max For Live, giving you tons of sonic scalping and shaping. With all the features we know and love? Yess-noo. And both can sooner or later benefit from this standalone function. It’s not only a new third version of their popular MIDI controller for Live, but there is a standalone version. The Berlin-based company Ableton has today unveiled the Push 3. Three years later one can say: the idea wasn’t wrong because the user’s wish became reality today. There was even a leak in 2020, but it was fake. There were long rumors about a standalone version. There have long been calls for an Ableton Push standalone with Ableton Live embedded. Ableton unchains its MIDI controller with the release of Push 3 and goes standalone with an all-new hardware, including MPE, audio interface, and more.
