Be sure to edit your drum rack’s Simpler instruments to be responsive to incoming velocity changes using the Vel>Vol setting in Simpler’s Controls tab it makes a big difference when it comes to personalising your racks. You can create really dynamic fills and breaks – it’s one of those things I couldn’t see the point of until I tried it. Playing beats becomes a totally different experience and gets great results. This is definitely a Push function that will be quicker than using the mouse!įor real-time drum-pad players – I hate to say ‘finger drummers’, but there you go, I’ve said it – the additional drum-rack layout is a real gift. The menus are divided into very logical columns and fast to navigate. The ability to access the In/Out View controls from Push is a major workflow bump as well – this goes with the existing mixer controls to make Push a more credible front end for your Live-based mixing rig. Genius! This is a great way to put those pads to work.

For the Manual mode, you can tap a pad to specify the slices, and also tap the Delete button, then the pad to erase those slices. You can choose Mode, Sliceīy and then the relevant value, such as Transient/Sensitivity, Beat/Note division, or Region/No. That integration is working, as full control over these new features is available from Push. They’re really just simple variations on what’s already possible, but they’ll speed up a lot of common slicing and sampling tasks and, like many features in Simpler, seem optimised to help make Push 2 more of a serious sampling platform/interface. In recent times, Simpler’s been getting a lot of love from Ableton, as it should – and the new slicing modes are interesting: Beat, Region, and Manual.
