Tell that to the Beatles, Stones, Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, Black Sabbath, Miles Davis, Jimi Hendrix... but yeah I kinda agree ;-)
Amazing how they worked around with 4 tracks back in the day. Iirc, even Bohemia Rhapsody was recorded on 16 tracks and they had to essentially record, bump everything to a single track, record again.
The Push is a game changer. It really makes Ableton feel like an instrument rather than a DAW. My current setup is an 88 key MIDI controller (Arturia Keylab) with the Push sitting on top of it. For jams/playing for relaxation I don't have to look at my screen at all.
How is the Keylab? I was in the market for a new keyboard and was eyeing Akai MPK249, but the Keylab looks to be more customizable
I love the Keylab. I mostly got it for the keybed which is best in class for that price point. The DAW controls are a nice added bonus, but the piano feel is great.

And here I'm trying to scale down on tracks and my last song I made had 6 tracks. Usually have about 50 tracks on average.
It's amazing how limitation can help creativity.
The Push + Live Suit bundle is good value imo.
Though you should ask what you're going to use it for. I use it mostly as an arranger and honestly, I could have done the same better in Studio One.
