Convenient, compact control surface, with easy setup for immediate
use
In a body proportioned to fit perfectly in front of your laptop computer, the
nanoKONTROL2 provides eight channels of the controllers you need to control your
music software. The nanoKONTROL2 also features a dedicated transport control
section. The buttons have been carefully selected to be useful with your
software, ensuring simple and intuitive control. Many software titles –
including major DAW programs – are supported, dramatically reducing the need
to make complicated connection settings.
Complete control for your DAW or software synthesizer
A knob, fader, and three switches are provided for each of the eight channels,
respectively assigned to pan, volume, and solo/mute/record. This arrangement is
a real convenience when recording automation for multiple channels.
There's also a marker button, making it easy to assign marks at important
points in your song for more efficient recording and song production. When using
a software synthesizer, you can assign parameters to the desired controllers for
easy control. For example you could use the faders to control the ADSR of an
envelope generator, and use the knobs to control the filter's cutoff frequency
and resonance, etc.
Korg Kontrol Editor software
The nanoKONTROL2 works with the “Korg Kontrol Editor” software –
available free on the Korg website. Load it into your computer, and use it to
make detailed customized settings. For example, the minimum and maximum values
for each control change message can be specified.
USB power for an uncluttered setup
Just connect a single USB cable from your computer to the nanoKONTROL2, and
you've got a quick and portable music production system. Power and USB-MIDI data
travels down the same wire for a clean, efficient workspace.
An ideal companion for the microKEY
The nanoSERIES2 controllers are the ideal companions for the 37-note,
natural-touch Korg microKEY. The latter’s dual USB hub ports allow any two
nanoSERIES2 controllers to be connected directly to the microKEY to create a
customized, expanding control center for any music production system.
Optional NanoBAG for transporting your controller sold separately.
