*> imagine the looper behavior, but with multiple tracks (and instruments)

Not sure if i get it right but looper plugin on different multi tracks is
possible in ableton,  the problem for me is cpo power and memory of my
machine ... macbook white 2007 , 4 Ghz memory ... :S

 my following setup should work on faster computers : looper plugins
 are setup individually on different tracks with key control on 3  usb
keyboards that i transformed in kind of foot-pedals ( key control are for :
select track, record, play, undo,stop, and another shortcut to transfer the
loop recorded in looper to a clip in another track but i don t remember the
name right now ) ...

About  Push : imo is nothing less than a controller binding; Launch pad,
machine, mpc ideas together ...
And it s like they developed kind of  Novation automap concept only for
ableton ... if it s really the case they are not really innovative imo ...
This is why i m not interested to buy it, and what will happen when Ableton
10 with new features will come out,
let me guess :  a new device ?  :-P
Plush nb 2, with his one new feature :  a LCD under the button for you to
see the clips names ...  shame it s not in Plush 1!  hmmm

The question I asked myself with those new devices is :
Should we really play music without thinking ?
I mean ... plugging an electrical  device and pushing buttons (all
pre-setup by engineer) makes you a musician-composer ?
Just do a experience, put all those neophyte musicians all together with
their machines-maker and the result is: they can'T play together any
harmonies, variations .. just chaos stuff comes out and of course you will
need drugs to appreciated it ... in 4\4!

Ok, now i go back to the circle of fourth and fifth to be able to play with
other real musicians who knows what is a key !  :)

Don t take it personally ... You are a very good musician as the most
barians on the list and i hope that push will bring you a better workflow
for your creativity, but in general i really wonder where the world is
going with all this technology against theory  as i mentioned above ...
