OK, first of all I suppose I should apologise for the rather bad pun…
![]() I have a LaunchPad which is really useful. I like to play live and I would say that without it I would be totally lost - I can not even imagine the pain and frustration, trying to run Numerology with a mouse and keyboard. I know, it is perfectly possible, but I have been so spoiled with all the stuff the LaunchPad integration can provide. Which why I want more. What I can not understand is if Push adds anything to the game, but a similar set of buttons and perhaps a nicer tactile feeling to the pads? It is rather pricey and I have just learned that Numerology can use more than one LaunchPad, right? That, to me, sounds awesome! So the question is if Push is a path to go for my live rig or if I should just add another LaunchPad. Or even ditch the one I have and go with two minis. |

I don't follow this stuff _real_ closely but I thought Push was an Ableton Live specific product, much like the APC20 - 40 series of controllers.
In the Ableton world there are a number of third party (Pythion-based) scripts that emulate a Push to Live via Launchpad -- nativeKontrol is one. But I don't know if that is what you're asking. ...edN |

Apparently is the Push similarly supported but priced at three times the price of a Launchpad. My question was rather if going with Push is worth the premium or if I should (which I just learned was possible) add yet another Launchpad to my arsenal. Last edited by koenig; 11-27-2014 at 06:47 AM. |

Some others who use it more may want to chime in, but here are what I see as the advantages of the Push over the Launchpad, but just specifically when used with Numerology:
- LED readout for major mode (nav, edit, presets, etc). - The built-in knobs are mapped in some modes. - Somewhat clearer button layout for things like cursoring around, play/stop, etc. - Velocity sensitive pads -- which does make a difference w/ the Keyboard module and for on-the-fly recording. Probably the biggest advantage is that when you use the Push w/ Live, it nearly controls everything (right?), so a big win there. If you're already comfortable with one Launchpad, then I would tend to suggest a second one -- or perhaps an iPad w/ Lemur or TouchOSC. |
