lil miss beats | Intro to Push 1 // Day 1 // #2WeeksWithPush @lilmissbeats | Uploaded July 2017 | Updated October 2024, 4 hours ago.
Welcome to #2WeeksWithPush you will learn how to use the push from complete beginner to improvising a song, from virgin to veteran in only 14 days.

Thinking push 1 is outdated? Think again, this instrument is still a beast (and way cheaper than it's newer counterpart) and I'm going to show you how and why over the next 2 weeks.

In this video, day 1, I'll be showing you a general overview of the ableton push. I'll show you what it is, where the various sections are, what you can expect to do with those parts of the push and in general just de-mystify the whole instrument. It's a ton of info so hang in there, because it's an excellent foundation for your ableton push 1 learning journey.

At the end of this series we will jam out a freestyle, improvised song together with all we've learned over these 14 days - I expect you to be able to do it without me too :)
Every day there will be a new video, so if this is for you make sure you don't miss it and hit that notification bell.
