Ableton Push 1 Controller by Akai Professional with Original Box

The original hands-on Ableton Live controller, complete with its original retail packaging. Developed in collaboration with Akai Professional, designed to bring a tactile, hardware-based workflow to Ableton Live. Push 1 provides hands-on control over beat creation, melodic playing, sequencing, clip launching, sound selection and song structure. Its central 8 × 8 grid provides 64 pads, allowing it to function as a playable instrument, drum controller, step sequencer and Session View controller. Ableton continues to provide Push 1 documentation and support for use with current computer-based Ableton Live installations. An excellent option for someone already working in Ableton Live who wants the dedicated Push workflow without the substantially higher cost of a current-generation Push.

Why You’ll Love It: Push 1 remains an unusually capable way to experience the dedicated Ableton hardware workflow. Rather than controlling Live with a generic MIDI surface, Push was designed around Live itself, allowing beats, notes, clips and sequences to be created directly from the hardware. Ableton still maintains a Push 1 section in its current Live 12 reference manual. Pickup queen west next to the Drake Hotel
