The Ableton Push 3 is a hardware controller for Ableton Live, a digital audio workstation (DAW). It is designed to give users a more hands-on and intuitive way to create and perform music. Some of the key features of the Push 3 include:
High-resolution multi-color display: The Push 3 has a high-resolution multi-color display that shows waveforms, clips, effects, and other information. This makes it easy to see what you are doing and to make precise adjustments.
Touch-sensitive pads: The Push 3 has 64 touch-sensitive pads that can be used to trigger clips, play notes, or control parameters. The pads are also pressure-sensitive, so you can add expression to your playing.
Encoders: The Push 3 has eight encoders that can be used to control parameters such as volume, panning, and effects. The encoders are also touch-sensitive, so you can adjust them quickly and easily.
Jog wheel: The Push 3 has a jog wheel that can be used to scroll through waveforms, clips, and effects. The jog wheel is also pressure-sensitive, so you can scrub through audio quickly and easily.
Built-in audio interface: The Push 3 has a built-in audio interface with two inputs and two outputs. This means that you can connect microphones, instruments, and other audio devices directly to the Push 3 without needing an external audio interface.
CV outputs: The Push 3 has two CV outputs that can be used to control analog synthesizers and other hardware devices. This allows you to integrate the Push 3 into your modular setup.
Standalone mode: The Push 3 can be used in standalone mode, which means that it can be used without a computer. This makes it a great option for live performance or for creating music on the go.
