I recorded the sound of a pen striking a half-full soda can. I loaded this into Sampler and went to the MIDI panel and mapped "Aftertouch" (pad pressure) to "Loop Length" with a value of -100. Now pad pressure modulate the loop length.
Here is a video of this sound design work in progress – http://youtu.be/Ld5KWyGs9_M.

I have a few devices but not the one you mentioned, so thanks for dropping this in the comments!!! Love the Push.
Here is a link to that device

I wrote something similar in Max for Live for converting aftertouch to any CC so I could use aftertouch with Slim Phatty.This is much more polished than what I came up with, but I did have scaling.

Awesome Mark!
Have you messed around with the Push Aftertouch Max for Live Patch by Subaqueous? It gives you much more control over Push’s Aftertouch.
Cool Idea man!
