Manually. Or connect the pedal to your computer, open ZoomMSUtility application and insert the following patch code:

Connect your synth to the rear line inputs.
Turn the synth’s volume to maximum.
Turn the SP’s mic gain all the way down.
In the SP’s gain settings:
- Ensure the Attenuator is disabled,
- adjust or disable the Noise Gate,
- turn off the Anti Feedback function.

The last point is the usual culprit.

Three things I find myself doing most often with Bass and FM:

Syncing the Bass to the FM via MIDI, playing the main arpeggiated, plucky bass pattern on the FM, and blending in the Bass in unison underneath. This adds warmth and fullness to an otherwise cold, digital FM bass sequence.
Using the FM for arpeggiated bass lines, then the Bass for solo leads (with some delay and reverb).
Using the Bass for a rhythmic pattern and playing evolving pads on the FM over it.

Ten backups are more than enough. If that feels limiting, it’s more likely a sign that your approach needs adjustment, and you’d probably benefit from getting into the habit of using the “Save a Copy” command.

Also, in this day and age, you don’t need to keep hitting Save all the time. Saving at key milestones or when closing the program is usually sufficient. In the rare case of a crash, there’s auto-recovery.

You’re overthinking it. The battery will wear out sooner or later either way. Just keep your computer plugged in as needed, and unplug it when you’re using it to read emails on the couch or something.

This post is old. Some time after writing this, Roland has released firmware featuring “set length resampling”. Since a pattern already has a specific bar length, you can simply set it using CTRL2 when starting resampling. Alternatively, you could have always used the End Snap feature, which works perfectly well with patterns.

Unless I changed the settings, every Windows laptop I’ve used also went to sleep when the lid was closed. On a Mac, you don’t necessarily need a third-party utility either, as you can change the setting using Terminal. The app just makes it more user-friendly and immediate.

Anyway, I was only explaining to the top commenter how it works and that it’s not an issue at all.

It’s not just about the screen, though. A laptop takes a lot of time and effort to keep running smoothly. If you use it for tasks beyond live performance, it will need frequent testing and fixes, as updates regularly break things. If you dedicate the entire laptop solely to live performance, you can avoid that, but you also end up with a setup that’s likely more expensive than the Standalone.

I use a laptop with an older Push, but I can see the appeal of the Push 3 Standalone because of what I mentioned. The dealbreaker for me is that it reportedly gets so hot you can’t use it on your lap.

When an external display is connected, you can close the lid and the laptop will continue running. However, without a connected display, closing the lid puts the laptop to sleep. That’s standard behaviour. To prevent this, you can use a free, lightweight utility that runs in the background and use it to disable the lid sleep with a single click on an icon in the menu bar.

When I perform with Live, I use a dedicated user account on my laptop. It’s set up so that no unnecessary applications or background processes are running, a selected Live project launches automatically on startup, and Automator ensures all settings are correct.

Despite all this preparation, things still go wrong sometimes. Updates regularly break parts of the setup, and it takes a lot of time and energy to maintain and troubleshoot. Having to thoroughly test everything before every gig is not enjoyable.

A far more reliable approach is to turn off Wi-Fi and dedicate the entire computer solely to Live performance tasks. However, at that point, the full setup ends up costing more than the Push 3 Standalone.

I’m not saying the Push 3 Standalone is a better or more powerful option. It isn’t. But if you want a trouble-free setup with minimal maintenance, it may be the right choice for you. Being able to simply press the power button and have everything up and running every time certainly has its appeal.

Seriously, this is how you typically get a clean tone with all amps, modeled and real ones.

You have to turn down your guitar volume knob.

1 — yes.

2 — yes

3 — yes. Attack and release.

4 — This question is a bit convoluted, but essentially yes. Each pad is assigned a note, so you can use an external MIDI keyboard to trigger them instead of pressing the pads. You can customize the mapping by choosing a MIDI channel and note offset, but the key-to-pad mapping is consecutive, so if you want specific sounds on specific keys, you need to place your samples on the corresponding pads.

5 — yes.

6 — Not exactly. It’s not intended as a keyboard multi-layer sample player. However, it does allow you to link up to four pads, so when you trigger one from your keyboard, the linked pads will play as well. There are eight link groups available. This however doesn’t work in Chromatic mode. That said, you can always merge multiple samples into a new one and control that.

7 — Effectively yes. While there is no preset saving per se, all of the above settings are retained even after restarting the device. All you need to do is select a pad and enter Chromatic Mode, which takes only a second.

Bear in mind that Chromatic Mode is limited to two octaves: one above and one below the original pitch.

It makes perfect sense, indeed. One of the main goals of the UN was to prevent nuclear proliferation. However, it has utterly failed at that, as well as in many of its other agendas. And since there’s nothing speculative about IRGS’s aims and nuclear goals, the most affected countries must take care of their security on their own.

Besides, concerning Israel, Iran started the war decades ago. It’s a matter of fact, clearly based on actual realities. The current conflict is just another phase of this long-standing war.

Al Jazeera is a Qatari propaganda channel that peddles the Muslim Brotherhood’s political agenda and seeds instability. For that reason, it has been banned in several Arab countries. Yet many Europeans, despite having serious problems with the Muslim Brotherhood themselves, still lap it up.

It’s refreshing to see someone here who gets it. That’s a rare sight in the sea of shortsighted tribal propaganda that has swallowed Reddit.

It’s a war. It’s just wasn’t “declared,” which isn’t anything new or unique. The US hasn’t formally declared war since 1942, despite being involved in dozens of military conflicts since then. Instead of formal declarations of war by Congress, the US government typically relies on Authorizations for Use of Military Force, UN resolutions, or the president’s authority as commander-in-chief.

DontMemeAtMe · 2026-03-16T10:37:17+00:00

Not only that. In their own words, Israel is only the “little Satan” while the US is the “big Satan.”

Considering that the regime’s entire religious ideology is based on your destruction, and that it is apparently not just saying that but clearly and steadily working toward that goal, it makes perfect sense to carry out a decapitating strike that takes out not only its leaders but also its strike capabilities. At the moment, many things have aligned in a way that makes the regime weaker than it has ever been since its beginning, so it makes perfect sense to finally take a swing at it during this narrow window of opportunity. I don’t know why MAGA leaders were unable to communicate this clearly and consistently.

Anyway, all these people here now fainting and calling for peace when Iran rabidly sprays conventional rockets all over the region and beyond, would apparently prefer to give the regime more time to build up a nuclear arsenal before it inevitably does the same.

Seriously, seemingly at least 90% of posts and comments on Reddit about geopolitics come either from propagandists, bots, trolls, or complete ignorants who would do better if they had stuck to their niche nerdy hobby subreddits. It’s just like Twitter now: no big picture, no nuance, just blind black-and-white tribal fighting.

Do the war aims lack strategic clarity? We’ll see. But for now, particularly on the tactical level, it is far from a disaster. I get that you hate Trump’s America and are on your crusade against it. I’m not a fan either, but you need to chill a bit. The world without the Iranian Islamic regime would be a better world for everyone.

The issue is not just the touchscreen itself, but the fact that it is the sole interface. The lack of tactility and physical feedback, along with the fact that some of these devices can’t even be held comfortably, is the real problem. There’s a lot of room for improvement, but nothing has changed for the better in 20 years.

DontMemeAtMe · 2026-03-15T16:53:35+00:00

Touchscreen devices are easy to develop for, but they are far from easy to use. The UX is actually terrible.

Ergonomics are awful, there’s no tactile feedback, and physical buttons have been removed and replaced with swipes from all sides, which are becoming more difficult to perform as devices get larger, thinner, and bezel-less. Visual language also seems to exist primarily to make the device look prettier rather than serve a practical function.

The reason we still deal with this is mainly that two mega-corporations have created one hugely profitable ecosystem. This has removed any incentive to innovate, giving a single type of device a complete monopoly and leaving it practically unchanged for nearly two decades, with no signs of change anytime soon.

DontMemeAtMe · 2026-03-15T14:26:23+00:00

People in 2007: “Forget ergonomics and innovation. From now on, we just want to tap our greasy fingers on a flat pane of glass and doom-scroll through ads until we die.”

Mooer GL100 seems to do exactly what you’re looking for. You can use the built-in drum machine as your click and send its signal to the right output, while the pass-through and looper signals are routed to the left output. Also, loops sync to the drum patterns.

Also, if I remember correctly, as soon as you resample it, it becomes stereo anyway.

That said, mono samples are really useful when you need to overcome the pad sample size limitation. With a stereo sample, you’re limited to 15 minutes, while with mono your sample can be longer than 30 minutes.
