Review: Usable keyboard if you need an ultra-portable setup. - This is a great little keyboard. I hoped that it would be set up in Windows 7 without drivers needing installing (as a USB composite device) but the Korg software needed installing before my DAW (Reaper) would recognise it. After that it was just a case of letting the DAW know what it was and I was entering MIDI note data into the program literally in minutes. It's obviously nowhere near as lush as a proper controller keyboard, and there's no niceties like aftertouch available, although there is rudimentary velocity sensing, and the small keybed needs careful playing if you're after any kind of subtlety or nuance - but it does try. For me, its a way of entering melodies into the DAW as a kind of MIDI notepad, and it does a grand job of that. It's small enough to slot into your laptop case, probably along with the other Korg nano controllers. So long as you're not expecting to emulate Chopin using this keyboard you'll not be dissappointed. It will be pretty good for entering basic synth elements into club music and electronica - it just won't offer you the expressive capabilities that aftertouch can provide. If you're good with that limitation and need a go-anywhere keybord this is certainly worth a look. Korg also offer a download code for various software components to get you going, together with introductory versions of DAWs like Ableton Live Lite. This bundle isn't quite as good as the one I received with a NanoPad a year or two ago. If you buy this you might want to check what the bundle presently is. It's possible that Korg changes it from time to time, or perhaps there's a different bundle depending on whether you buy the NanoKey, NanoPad or NanoController. I already have a Samson Graphite full-function controller keyboard, and also use a Yamaha digital grand piano (88-key) for playing, but realised I have a need for something that is as portable as possible for a mobile setup. This is that keyboard - basic, useable, sometimes even fun!
Review: A decent option for the price and niche - Although the keys feel a bit loose and rattly, they work surprisingly well in practise and the velocity sensitivity works well enough to be useful. The editor software is a bit crude and shonky (as is standard with Korg), but it does work. Do note that this device is a USB client only. If you wanted to plug it directly into something like an Elektron Model: Cycles, you can't just use a USB cable with the right connectors- as neither end is capable of USB host mode. To achieve that, you'd need something like the Retrokits RK-006 (which is tiny, powerful and highly recommended), then you can use a TRS cable to go between one of the RK-006's MIDI outs into the M:C's MIDI in, and everything magically works. In any case, this is a deceptively useful little controller keyboard, once you have the connection sorted out. It's a lot nicer than using your QWERTY keyboard with DAW, or using the weird button "keyboard" on small instruments. For a portable setup, it's very functional and hits a sweet spot of size vs functionality that the smaller Akai controllers can't. If you absolutely need to pack light, this isn't a bad choice at all. You might end up wanting to find an angled mini-USB cable for it to make the cabling more tidy, but otherwise, I have no real complaints. Just be sure that you understand what you're getting and know that you can't plug it directly into MIDI ins without some extra kit, as above.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is there a way of using the different knobs/dials for different windows volume? e.g chrome on the first and Skype on an another?**
A: There's an app called MIDI Mixer that provides pretty deep integration (uses lights etc) and does that! Disclaimer: I'm the creator. :)

**Q: will this work with Mixcraft daw**
A: i am not sure, i found it almost impossible to set it up for reason and cubase. :( i haven't used it to make music once yet. I wish you more luck than i had.

**Q: Re korg nanokontrol midi controller, does this work well with samplitude music studio?**
A: I think it should work with any DAW. I use it in Reaper, Logic, Garageband on Mac and Reaper and Cakewalk on win10. It's just right for me as I can only play some chords for pads, strings and some organ stabs. Aslo I use it with Drum synths.

**Q: Hi, I’m a little confused. The photos for the listing are of a nano key2 in white, but the white option to select is of a nano pad. Which one is it?**
A: I think it depends what's in stock.. I can see the white key version today (13th September)

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Little Controller
*by C***E on 23 August 2015*

I've been a bedroom musician since 1980 and over the years have had many instruments and recording tools. In the early 00's I switched to Fruity Loops and then FL Studio and VSTs and was happy making music that way with a Korg MicroKontrol. In the mid 00's we had a kid so all my stuff was sold to pay for the little blighter. Nine years later on a whim I decided to install the new version of FL Studio (luckily in 2004 I'd opted for the lifetime free upgrade package) and was amazed that we had reached V12; it had been V5 last time I'd used it. I listened to some of my old tracks and started to get the bug again, so I decided I needed a controller. I didn't want to spend too much as I wasn't sure - and am still not - if I'll have the time I used to have. Looking on Amazon there were quite a few choices but in the end I decided to go for this. I know a few have remarked on the keys, which do take some getting used to. However, they are fine for me and actually took me on a nostalgia trip. In 1981 I saved up weeks and weeks of dinner money (sorry Mum) to buy a VL-Tone and the keys on the Korg are more or less the same feel of that old classic; obviously the size of the keys is better on the Korg, they are more weighty and have a better "bounce". Not quite as intuitive maybe as a "proper" keyboard, but after a while you don't really tend to notice. This worked fine out of the box on my Windows 10 laptop and was recognised by FL Studio without any problems at all. In fact the only issues I had were installing the free software from Korg. It was a right nightmare and I had to sign up to too many different websites for my liking. All-in-all, I'm really pleased with this controller, it's nice and small so I can use it on my lap and I can pop it on a shelf after use.
