A wonderful Music creations Gift.
A Luna Park of Amazing sounds creations and performances.
Own sound,moods,flow but with endless possibilities.
Need for me some samples management inside.
I swear some update to run in Ableton with push 3 with the possibility to control ptnshift when selected his track and the rest of Ableton in the common way when ptnshift track are not selected (like other plugin).
P.s.it's ok with Maschine 3 (with Maschin MK3) hosting Reaktor and ptnshift in a sound Channel with Push 3 controlling ptnshift!

PTNSHFT by Tim Exile
PTNSHIFT is a generative music performance instrument for Ableton Push 2 & 3, developed by Tim Exile. It reimagines live electronic expression by fusing modular synth principles, pattern generation, and tactile control into a self-contained instrument.
Built in Native Instruments Reaktor, PTNSHIFT transforms Push into a dynamic musical interface. Switch between Note mode to shape, sequence and prepare patterns, and Session mode to perform with DJ-style blending, FX throws and scene launching.
Included Content:
- PTNSHIFT Tim Exile Starter Pack – 350+ curated patterns
- PTNSHIFT Blank Slate – build your own set from scratch
- PTNSHIFT Companion App – screen streaming to Push (Mac/Windows)
- 5 Pattern Packs (Electric Gamelan, Hypnotic Acid, Atonal Techno, Joist, Vapourwave)
Generative Engine
PTNSHIFT’s core engine features parametric pattern generators across drums, synths and FX. Morph, randomise or blend patterns in real-time with intuitive gestures. Flexible step logic and probability give rise to deep musical variation that evolves over time.
Modular-Style Synthesis
Each channel includes poly-modulated sound engines, multi-FX routing, and real-time macro control. The sound palette ranges from deep, animated bass and harmonic noise to swirling pads and glitchy percussion.
Push-Optimised Performance
PTNSHIFT is mapped specifically for Push 2 & 3, integrating visuals and control across both generations. Use Note view to design, Session view to perform. Mapping includes hands-on control for pattern banks, FX, mix levels, mutes and transitions.
Session Flow & Improvisation
Inspired by the energy of DJ sets and live modular jams, PTNSHIFT lets you improvise with confidence. Patterns can be launched, blended or overridden. Every control is designed to respond musically and immediately.
