Korg NanoPAD2

The Korg nanoPAD 2 is a powerful slim USB Pad Controller and belongs to the nanoSERIES2 controllers by Korg. This controller is compact, lightweight and sized to work well with any laptop or desktop computer. In addition, the Korg nanoPAD 2 also comes with 16 great-feeling and dynamic-sensing pads – in combination with the X-Y touchpad! Furthermore, there are four banks of pad assignments, providing a total of 64 pads setups.

The X-Y pad can be used to control multiple synthesizer parameters. In addition, the new "Touch Scale” function lets you intuitively play phrases on the X-Y touchpad. You can choose from sixteen different scales and specify the root key and note range to guarantee that your performance stays within your song. The "Gate Arp” function transmits note data based on tempo; Tap tempo and tempo sync are supported. By stroking the X-Y pad or playing the pads, the Gate Arp, combined with the Touch Scale, gives you the possibility to play tempo-synchronized phrases and rhythms simply.

The sixteen velocity-sensitive trigger pads offer excellent response to your fingertips and also realistically convey the playing feel to your sequencer or DAW software, ensuring that your drum parts will be full of life. By switching between the four scenes, you can experience 64 different pad assignments.

The Korg nanoPAD 2 is compatible 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. Choose from a total of four velocity settings: three velocity curves or fixed velocity. You can also specify note numbers, create user scales for the Touch Scale function, assign chords, assign control change messages, and save your settings.

Just connect a single USB cable from your computer to the Korg nanoPAD 2 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.
