    We're getting warmer ... I was expecting to be inundated with tips, tricks, and the most kickass video tutorials on the net that not even Steve Faoki knows of their existence :cool:

    The pads on the Mk2 seem really nice, I believe they upgraded them from the Mk1?

    Making drum tracks with this has got to be an improvement over using a mouse isn't it?

    PS please recommend some tutorial videos that don't waste my time, the Grammy Awards are coming up soon! :sad:

    Groove3 ADSR Sonic Academy Youtube tutorials until you master the workflow. It will be worth it, specially for anything swing based.

    Okay first... you take it back to the store.

    Then... you save another $200 and buy a Push 2

    I'll also get one of these if I can find it for around half the price of a new one. I never buy things new if I just want to check them out :wink:

    @sisyphus @Zenarcist I would suggest the Gearslutz classifieds for both of you. I have seen Push 1 for as little as $250 there. I've said this before but it's really the only place I've come across where people sell used gear at actual used prices. $20 fee to get access but well worth it. I've saved a shitload on plugins by getting on there. I just got Fabfilter Saturn for $75. Also, UVI relayer for $70 a while back.
