Akai Force vs Ableton Push 2: Which is better for you?

Published

on



While at Winter NAMM 2019, Akai agreed to a “no question off the table” interview about their new Force standalone clip launcher/groovebox/sampler.

Alongside this interview I compare Force’s features to Ableton Push (and occasionally Maschine MK3).

Here’s a link to the video I made comparing Push 2 to Maschine MK3: https://youtu.be/8I_TnRZcHpg

The comparison is between Force and what Push 2 can do as a controller, not the entirety of Ableton Live as a DAW, which is of course substantially more comprehensive.

Chef Cooks As A Randomizer Sabotages Their Kitchen

Published

on



Mike and Chef James are racing against the clock to cook an incredible dish, but there’s a massive catch: their equipment and ingredients are getting randomly deleted.

At random intervals, a ruthless random generator selects vital kitchen items to be removed. Once they’re gone, they’re gone for good. Knives, ingredients, appliances, pans, and even the hobs – absolutely nothing is safe.

Every few minutes, they must instantly pivot and adapt their recipe on the fly. Can a home cook and a pro chef survive the ultimate kitchen sabotage, or will they be left with nothing but a single wooden spoon?

If you want to see more absolute kitchen chaos, hit SUBSCRIBE and let us know in the comments what we should delete next!
