In this video I've stuck Push 3 in the middle of my hardware island and wanted to see if it could sequence a boatload of synths using a mixture of handmade MIDI, generative Max4Live devices, and built-in MIDI effects to constrain things in useful ways. It totally can. I'll show what I enjoyed exploring, and build up a track idea in the process.
COMPANION TUTORIAL VID:
If you have a Push 3 and want to try build something like this, I've made a companion tutorial video for this vid where I explain step by step all the various steps required to actually get Push 3 to DO what's in this video:
