    Every once and a while you come across content creators that actually provide useful entertaining and down to the point content without the mindless rambling followed by "please subscribe" "like the video" "hit the bell" "if you want more videos like these..." It's these creators that make CZcams so great.

    I use CZcams a BUNCH, but I have only about 5 subscriptions (and I rarely comment). You got mine at about 3:00 when you mentioned Shift-Scroll... not even related to your topic but a game-changer for me. I've been using Live since 2.0 ... but somehow missed that gem. Now I'm off to watch the rest of your vid. Rock on brother - full props.

    Thanks for the tips! I'm new to Ableton and I am floored by all the cool stuff you can do with the Push 2! I agree... too many long, drawn-out videos. Some cover too much, others include TMI. Feeling your pain on the insistent caller! LOL! Turn it off or put it in DND mode. I had to disconnect my phone from the laptop because it got so annoying. Keep up the great videos! Quick and to the point.. awesome!

    Thx man! Great video: a lot of value in a short time. I heard that the Push 2's pitchbend could be improved if you modify your instrument's pitch bend parameters. I definitly want to see some tutorials to master it.

  • @julienbenatar
    @julienbenatar Před 3 lety +3

    You're legend Ian, I thought I became pretty comfortable with Push, and yet I'll be able to use all of these points to improve my workflow. I'd love to see a standalone video about how you go about playing chords on the push. Guitar is my main instrument so it was very helpful to see your flow.

    • @IanPriven
      @IanPriven  Před 3 lety

      Glad to hear it man. You got it. What specifically related to chords do you want to know? It's tough to gage what people want to know in terms of theory and also in terms of the Push2. Thanks again for watching.

    • @julienbenatar
      @julienbenatar Před 3 lety

      @@IanPriven Sorry I missed your answer! I'm mostly wondering if you read the push in the way you read a guitar fretboard? I haven't been able to write chords on the push since I don't really know what I'm looking at. So I assume this is as basic as it is.

    • @GreatestSportsHighLights
      @GreatestSportsHighLights Před 3 lety

      You can load the chords you want in session view and on each scene double-tap and on the bottom left-hand select trigger!
      Now you can control each scene that you put the chords on from your push on the pads!
      Now if you are playing them and not loading chords you can select the chords on your push2 to play your chords and to stay in key
      Switch to chromatic view it will be easier to understand since this view is similar to the guitar structure of chords
      keep up the amazing work and have a great day!

    You can change how the pitch wheel slider reacts on the push 2
    Hold shift button on the push2 and double-tap the slider, it changes the way it responds and it will respond like the keys pitch wheel
    (The shift key on the push2 is very very important!)
