Introducing Ableton Push 3 for education - Standalone An expressive standalone instrument, push is the centrepiece of your studio when combined with the other gear. Push invited you to disconnect and be fully in the moment with your music. Send your Live sets to push to work without a computer and then back again. Push gives you the independence from your computer so you can be fully in the moment with your music. Connect your gear, sculpt your sound and play in a style that’s recognisably yours. With a built in audio interface you can record straight into your set. Plus, send CV and gat signals to your modular setup. Shape your sound with pads that respond to the slightest movement of your fingers. Bend, slide and shift between different notes, sounds and articulations. Please note: This Ableton product is only available for UK Music Hubs to purchase. Orders through the Department for Education Musical Instruments, Equipment & Technology Framework get an exclusive 5-year warranty! Expressive touch and multi-directional pads Responsive MPE-enabled pads make Push and individually expressive instrument. Design multi-faceted sounds and perform them in your own style with the movement of your fingertips within each pad. Push’s 64 XY-sensitive pads respond to the subtlest shifts in finger placement and pressure. Feel your way around the pads to fluidly change your sound in multiple ways as you play. Movement and articulation Play per-note bends and slides to mimic fretless strings, conjure theremin-style synths, or play liquidly shifting chords. Vary strings’ bowing techniques or play dynamically detailed wind parts, all without taking your hands off the pads. Filters and effects Paint your playing with precise colour by adding tremolo or wah-wah to just some notes of a chord. Filter sounds with your fingers. Create your own instrumental hybrids and fluidly morph between completely different sounds. Realistic or imagined drums and an expressive sound collection Finger drum with timbral variation akin to a natural drum head, whether you’re playing an acoustic drum sound or an electronic one. Or play different percussion articulations within a pad – hits and rolls, open and closed hi-hats, sticks and brushes. Play your way through a library of nuanced sounds designed to make full use of Push’s expressive pad movements. Work with multi-articulated acoustic instruments and ensembles, take tactile control of all manner of synthesized sounds, and create shifting choral clouds with the exclusive Expressive Choir pack by Spitfire Audio. The heart of your setup From sampling records to controlling modular jams, to making multi-track recordings of your band’s rehearsal, Push works as a flexible creative hub. Built robustly for frequent travel between sessions and stages, and made to work with your trusty old gear and your newest toys, it’ll see you through many changes in setup, sound and scene. Intuitive design and made to evolve With sturdy construction and a feature set that grows alongside Live’s development, every generation of Push has a deliberately long lifespan. Push 3’s user-upgradeable parts take longevity one step further. Watch and learn about the ethos behind the instrument. Push’s navigation is designed to get out of your way so you can stay focused on creating. Smoothly source sounds and devices from your library, and edit MIDI quickly using the jog wheel.
