Deploy the Complete Ableton Production System

When you combine the Ableton Push 3 Standalone hardware instrument and control surface with Ableton Live 12 Suite software, you get a complete hardware/software production system that's guaranteed to elevate your imagination. Push 3 Standalone puts maximum tactile expression right under your fingertips, while Live 12 Suite software gives you an entire creative toolset for music creation, recording, and live performance. Sound good? Then give your Sweetwater Sales Engineer a call, so you can embark on your next musical journey.

Ableton Push 3 Standalone

Ripe with creative possibilities, Ableton Push 3 Standalone is a hardware instrument and control surface that enables you to create and edit melodies, harmonies, beats, samples, and even entire songs. Push 3's 64 backlit, MPE-enabled pads provide you with the utmost expressive tactile control, while locked-tight integration with Ableton Live software gives you complete access to a creative arsenal of instruments, devices, and effects. Not only does Push 3 function as an instrument and controller, but its built-in audio/MIDI interface lets you deploy it as a hub for your entire rig. With this hardware at the center of your creative workflow, you can connect external instruments, synths, or effects and record directly into Ableton Live; you can also use Push 3 as a springboard for real-time playing, step sequencing, and clip launching. Moreover, Push 3 Standalone includes an onboard processor, internal solid-state drive, and rechargeable lithium-ion battery, allowing you to record, mix, and play entirely inside the hardware — no computer required. What's more, you can seamlessly send your Live Sets to the Push 3 hardware and vice versa. Thanks to Push 3, creative musicians can stay focused on song creation rather than on their computer screen.

Ableton Live 12 Suite

Ableton Live is fast, fluid, and flexible, enabling you to tackle music creation, recording, and live performance with equal assurance. This revolutionary DAW software allows for traditional linear song creation, or you can leverage its Session View for nonlinear improvisation without the constraints of a timeline. With Live, you'll find yourself playing with musical elements and ideas like never before, and you can do so in real time without disrupting your creative flow. And with Live 12 Suite, your options are never-ending. Whether you're using it to trigger loops with a combination of software and hardware instruments or to loop riffs and backing tracks with your band, Live has it covered. As a creative tool, more than 71GB of content and an extensive collection of virtual instruments and effects are onboard. Plus, with Max for Live built in, anything you can't accomplish with the included content and your favorite plug-ins are still easily within reach. Whether you use it as a music creation instrument or as the central hub for your stage show, Ableton Live 12 Suite provides you with an endlessly powerful creative toolset.

What is Certified Open Box Gear?

At Sweetwater, we're so picky that what we call "Certified Open Box" is actually better than what most music retailers sell as "new" gear! Our gear hasn't endured hundreds of people a week plunking away at all the keyboards, fumbling through Stairway to Heaven on every guitar or playing with every fader and knob on a mixer or control surface.

Certified Open Box (also known as a demo) means we’ve had it out of the box for our YouTube channel, displayed at events, tested in our studio, or maybe it was in a customer’s hands for a few days and isn’t ‘factory fresh’ as a result. Every Certified Open Box item we sell has Sweetwater’s 2-year Total Confidence Coverage™ warranty and has been tested and verified up to ‘new’ specs by our factory-authorized technicians to make sure it’s in perfect working order before we ship it to you.

When you buy a Certified Open Box item at Sweetwater, you get:
  • 2-year Total Confidence Coverage Warranty™!
  • Products inspected and tested by our factory-authorized techs, guaranteed to function like new (or better)!
  • FREE shipping on most items
  • Equipment that will MEET or EXCEED your expectations!

Reviews

Ideal for specific scenarios
- Ideal if you're starting from scratch with only a computer, this investment will give you everything you need although you may likely want to upgrade the version of Live software as it only comes with "Ableton Live Intro".
- It's great for electronic music performance but you can literally just record any music you want into it.
- If you're limited on physical space, this (heavy) box is all-in-one and portable.

Less Ideal scenarios:
- If you're an advanced Ableton Live user, the standalone version doesn't easily allow you to do everything. You can't create any Sampler instruments on the standalone as of the summer of 2025. You can't create instruments racks on the standalone. You can't edit in arrangement view. All of those features require the use of a computer.
- It is not EASILY portable. It is very heavy. It is not a device you can easily throw around and take places. It is likely a device you'd want to carry with you for specific reasons such as from the studio to the living room. Or from a studio to a live gig.
