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.
