For correct screw replacement when dismantling anything like the PUSH 2, place a piece of same-size paper over the device and mark the screw holes on the paper (scrape over the hole with the side of a pencil). Then when you remove the screws, push them through the paper where they originated - that way you'll be sure to put the same screws back in the right holes! Also with self-tappers, turn the screw backwards gently when reinserting and it will 'click' when the thread reaches the start point. Thus it will go back in smoothly to the same cut thread in the socket - otherwise you'll be cutting a new thread and that can only happen once more and the hole will be too big.. (Good tip for any self-tapping screw, into plastic or aluminium etc.)

Dude, I'm glad you didn't edit down or fast forward the disassembly any more than you did. I heard about the signatures a long time ago, long before I got mine (just this last week). Watching your vid and seeing how long that took you even with it sped up and skipping parts has thoroughly convinvced me to never take it apart if it's not broken haha The signatures are an amazing detail (and very morale boosting I'm sure). I also love the Ableton logo that they had printed right onto the PCB.

is there any extra latency using the foot pedal device, and are you saying that you can literally use any midi footpedal including ones with like 6 pedals all mapped to different buttons alongside using the push as it is?
@mredrollo 3 жыл бұрын
JACK BADEN hey man, I’m not sure the lengths you can go with this device. I believe you will be able to map 1 pedal per foot switch port. Best thing to do would be to download and plug and play, it’s free :)

Push 2 is incredible. The Akai Force had the potential to be even better, then they went hard into it only being standalone - which is probably for the best, but I wish it could be as good as the Push and a great standalone.

i just bought a Push 1 in 2022 for under $200.. If you use ableton Push is it.. I almost actually upgrade my Launchpad X to a Pro..lol 2022 Push 1 and Ableton 11 is a absolute joy to make music on. Dont call it a controller! Soon as you hold it in your hands you will realize why its marketed as a instrument... Definitely get more of a MPC feel from it then a Launch pad
