Knobbler4

Push 3 Standalone

Knobbler runs on the Push 3 Standalone (P3SA) — no computer required

What you can do

Pair Knobbler with P3SA and you can:

• Assemble two pages of 16 auto-named, auto-colored, multitouch sliders, or combine adjacent sliders into X-Y controls.
• Navigate your set and see and adjust all of the parameters of the currently selected device — on a phone or a tablet where you are playing or singing.
• Switch to mixer view for a sidecar mixer that travels with you.
• Expand your clips view with clip names and a smooth panning surface that's more satisfying than tapping cursor keys.
• Navigate all of your tracks, groups, racks, chains, and devices with a swipe on the Navigation bar on the right — handy on a phone too.
• Keep the current track's mixer strip docked on the left of most pages, when you want it.
• Enable and disable real-time level meters.

Files

When you download the Knobbler4 release, the .zip contains two .amxd files:

• Knobbler4-vXX.amxd — for your computer.
• Knobbler4-vXX-Push3Standalone.amxd — for the Push 3 Standalone.

Installing

In Ableton Live, drag Knobbler4-vXX-Push3Standalone.amxd onto your Push 3 in Ableton, then add it to the Main track of the set or template you want to use on Push.

Connecting

The Push 3 Standalone does not support Knobbler's auto-discovery, so you'll connect manually. The app's Setup tab has a Push 3 Standalone helper card with one-tap shortcuts for the two common addresses:

1. Open the Knobbler app on your phone or tablet and go to the Setup tab.
2. In the Push 3 Standalone card, tap the address that matches your situation:
   • push.local — both your P3SA and tablet are on the same shared WiFi network.
   • 192.168.0.1 — your tablet is connected to the Push's WiFi hotspot.
3. Confirm the port is 2346.
4. You should see "Connected".
