Undo History is a VERY UNDERRATED add on for this update. Very very pleased with all the new features added. I could see Drum Sampler becoming the new Simpler in a few years when 13 is released.

A fair amount of these new features are also available for Push 2! Huge update for Ableton Gang. Very excited!

@@claytonchipper3874 I don’t have it in front of me, but my recollection is that you cannot move tracks/scenes or create macros on Push 2 like you can on Push 3. I suspect the lack of jog wheel makes some of these much trickier, UI-wise. You CAN, however, access macro variations on Push 2…which is a big one for me! The new Pitch Shift and Drum Sampler instruments also have great Push integration that works on Push 2.

12.1 is huge! I'm really excited about the Push 3 standalone updates - it was already an amazing machine, but I agree with you - there were definitely some features missing at launch. Macro mapping from the device is implemented really well I think, and the idea of now being able to have a proper sound design workflow from standalone is appealing to me. It's becoming clear that over time Push 3 is going to become something of a dream production device for many people. Despite having its flaws and initial bugs, it's already been a dream standalone device for me personally since day one. Great video man, love your work

I bought an MPC Live 2 a few years ago because there wasn't a Push standalone out yet. When Push 3 launched my ultimate mobile DAW-in-a-box dream still didn't materialize because I realized that this was pretty much a Gen 1 product for Ableton that needed a lot more cooking. Skip fwd a year later and I have come to realize that Akai's philosophy of starting with a hardware groovebox and turning it more into a DAW-in-a-box over time might actually turn out to be a better route vs Ableton starting out as a DAW and then increasingly implementing its functionality into the Push 3 hardware. The Push 3 workflow for making a beat in standalone simply isn't as fast and immediate vs the MPC. And this update isn't going to change that. The MPC on the other hand is going to see a huge firmware update (in beta atm) that will make it behave even more like a DAW, adding linear arrangement and getting rid of legacy workflow quirks that made it unnecessarily complex to use. So as a mobile standalone production machine, the Push 3 might never be for me. As a live performing device or Ableton controller however, it's a different story.

That selection on launch was killing me! So glad they fixed it. Hopefully it’s an update on push 2.

From the start, I wanted the macros features on Maschine Plus, as well as a few other things. This is really great to see the Push moving in that direction for live performance. The thing that convinced me to purchase the standalone upgrade kit this week was actually the Arturia X8 OUT Adat expander for $299. NOW my push standalone alllows full stem remixing on my DJM V10 with only a tiny box and a small price tag. The updates in 12.1 are just icing on the cake 🎉❤

Hold Select and then press the scene to select it withoutlaunching it and keep holding it n move the jogwheel to change new scene position. This is on newest beta atleast. Culd be that Your Beta (while doing this video) was 12.1.b1 or b2. I'm on b3 and select + scene now works as expected. You can now group/ungroup instruments and audio devices and move devices in that audio effect rack outside the rack. Rename track with Push 3 onscreendisplay (enter Your name on arcade game style with controller) nonstandalone Push3 user here. Clip Edit mode on the 5th row I see "Groove none (or a groove name)" text still on when You press Edit on the right corner.

good call! thanks for listing these changes!

Macro Variations are awesome and the ability to save and also jam these on the pads is great

This is coooool! I was already saving for the Push 3, but grouping/macros in standalone definitely seals the deal for me even more. I'm definitely aware of missing features, but my main use would just be for creating music in my living room when I don't feel like hiding in the studio. The features that will be available in 12.1 are definitely sufficient without me relying on a hope for an upgrade for the standard features I'd want.

Great overview, thanks. I'm still on Live 11 Suite with Push 2 and have been waiting to see what happens with Push 3 and Live 12 before deciding whether to upgrade both Live and Push. These changes look like quite a big deal, especially fixing the select track on launch thing which is absolutely fckn infuriating and has been one of the reasons I've held off on making Push the centrepiece of my setup. That's long overdue. All the other additions look great, especially the autotune effect.

drum sampler just made creating Kendrick's Sherane drums sooooo much easier to achieve

I returned my Push standalone a week ago, these changes do make it better, but I would really like it if it relied even less on the computer. Not being able to save racks is so baffling to me. crafting patches and then having to do it again for every new project is just insane.
