FINALLY… Follow Actions Come to Ableton Push 3

Ableton Push 3 Standalone just got a major upgrade: Follow Actions are here.

If you’ve been waiting for automation on Push 3 without needing a computer, this update is for you. Now, you can set Follow Actions on clips and scenes directly on the hardware. Let’s dive in.

How to Enable Follow Actions on Push 3

For Individual Clips:

1. Hold the Play button.
2. Tap the clip you want to enable Follow Actions on—done.

For All Clips in a Track:

1. Hold Track + Play.
2. All clips in that track will now follow the set Follow Action.

For Individual Scenes:

1. Hold the Play button.
2. Tap the scene you want to enable Follow Actions on.

For All Scenes:

1. Hold Play + Master.
2. Every scene will now follow its designated Follow Action.

Editing Follow Actions in Clip View

Once Follow Actions are enabled, you can fine-tune them in Clip View:

• Linked vs. Unlinked Playback: Choose whether Follow Actions trigger after a set time or after a loop completes.
• Probability & Chance: Assign randomisation between two Follow Actions (A & B).
• Jump Actions: Set clips/scenes to jump to specific points instead of playing in order.

Why This Update Matters

Follow Actions unlock true hands-free automation on Push 3. Whether you’re performing live or experimenting in the studio, you can now:

✅ Automate clip sequencing for generative ideas.
✅ Create scene-based arrangements without touching a laptop.
✅ Free up your hands for live effects, transitions, and looping.

This is a huge workflow boost for standalone users. Watch the full tutorial below to see it in action:
