    I went for the standalone version and I am glad that I did. It's the center of my studio, and I don't need a computer running. And it is perfect for the way that I work, doing the track creation stage with the Push 3 and other instruments in the studio, and then later I send it to the computer for a mixing and mastering session.

    @@NotThatCoolKid Certainly. I know people for who the controller version is perfect for them. It's nice that we have options.

    Gosh it’s a no brainer. Still rocking with the push 2 and yes I probably need to upgrade but I wouldn’t go any further than the controller mode. Without vst support - you c could basically buy a MacBook Air or almost a pro aswell as a controller. Better value and must better cpu. I could just imagine the battery is good but will degrade in time so it’ll end up being a controller long term. The lack of an xlr is crazy aswell as secondary headphones. I could even get a native instruments mk3 plus a push 3 and still be miles ahead

    A built in audio-interface with one 1 in and 1 out would be the dream on a device like this.

    You must be a bodybuilder. The number one reason is that it is not a standalone machine. It's way too heavy for that.

    Reason 1: You don't have the funds. (I'm kidding.) Reason 1: The weight. It ain't light. Enjoyed your video.
