I have used the Push 2 with Renoise, and a useful subset of the basic feature set is preserved, provided you are willing to do some work to configure it. If you are using the Push 2 with another DAW, you will lose quite a bit of functionality. Practically everything just works, right out of the box and the community around Ableton and the Push 2 is exceptional! VST integration is surprisingly straightforward too, requiring minimal setup. The encoders are smooth and much more accurate than I expected, and they feel good to work with. The pads are touch sensitive and a joy to play. Menu navigation is a breeze and very intuitively organised. You can expect to make your first beats within minutes of plugging the device in! Sample slicing, mangling, and sequencing with the controller is a game-changer for me and the high-res display is excellent. It is quick and easy to get up and running, but the device has many advanced features if you are willing to put in the time. I use it for breakcore, acid, and trance production and it adapts exceptionally well to each production context. Since it was purpose built for Ableton, integration with the software is practically flawless. The Push 2 is an excellent controller for the Ableton user.
