Korg NanoKez, nanoKontrol, nanoPAD / Finally something useful Posted on: 13.06.2008 by Thomas Vitez http://www.dv247.com/news/Korg%20nan...o%20PAD/131777Korg is coming up with some midi controllers that might be incredible useful. The prices in the link at the top might not be fixed, I believe they will come out for 99$ each or something like that. The nanoPad is really awesome for controllerism I will buy at least one, perhaps two for 4 decks. | |
| Thomas Fone 11.11.2008 | Anybody working on this? It would be great to have immediate access to all the new effects. |
| Thomas Fone 09.11.2008 | Thanks for the heads up. Way better. |
| SHENG FU 09.11.2008 | Black is on the way... http://www.gearjunkies.com/news_info.php?news_id=3257 |
| samir abu-sharar 08.11.2008 | Kama: What type/kind of paint did you use to paint the Nano? Interesting.. I may even paint the NanoPad... leaving the left side blue area intact, and painting the rest would look really nice. Since it seems it will take forever for me to perform the arcade button mod, I will give the nanopad a try as an alternative. Wonder if it will react as ultra-fast as the buttons seems to work... |
| Thomas Fone 08.11.2008 | Or simpler with numbers this way |
| Thomas Fone 08.11.2008 | Got mine from musicstudiodirect.com. Great customer service. For me it seems the nano might work better upside down under the vci-100 se. More room around the rotaries. I don't know what that means as far as assigning - especially sweeps on rotaries. Seems like it might be cool though. I was wondering about setting one of the buttons, Now top 1 (far right) - to turn deck 1 controls on se into deck 3 controls and Bottom 1 to turn deck 2 controls into deck 4 controls. Also using the rest for effects and parameters. I am believeing though that with Pros new move to simplicity, Ean's tsi for the se maybe so inclusive that there is no need for a second controller. |
| kieran frearson 08.11.2008 | Yeah Bento, the pad and the knob one in ONE controller! shaped like an L but with some angle! You build it ?! Sure the price rocks on these, I might buy one of those just to test how it is |

| Thomas Libal 08.11.2008 | Currently I have the Korg connected via USB-Hub, I'll try changing that as soon as my USB-Express-Card arrives. |

| Thomas Libal 07.11.2008 | Did anyone find a good tks for the NanoPad and Traktor? I tried using the Roll-Effect with an FX-Knob, but found it firing a bit too fast (even on the lowest point). Is there a way to slow this down? |
| Thomas Fone 06.11.2008 | As expected feels pretty disposable - but good layout and control response. Will see how it holds up. Have to remap. Painted mine black. |
| Deryco 8 17.06.2008 | ha they look great, love the quote "It's hard to overstate how cheap and plasticky these things are. The faders are tiny and toy-like, the cases would need to be taped down to stop them moving across the table." |

| Jose Iraheta 15.06.2008 | +1 on the great form factor. Perfect for studio desks and on the road setups. Definitely going to pick up the nanoPad.
Expected October 2008. Pre-order your Nano Pad, Nano Key or Nano Kontrol from Digital Village and be guaranteed stock from the first UK shipment
|
| Adolf Hit 14.06.2008 | I will def be getting at least 1 of those. Awesome form factor + price. Hopefully we see more products like this which can be used to cheaply complement our existing setups. |
| Xavier Emanuels 14.06.2008 | Its the shape that does it for me, its nice and slim so it easily fits between you and whatever gear
you may have running. Also having a ton of devices like this is the next best thing to modular units - you can easily line up a few to have a pretty decent customised work surface. I too hope they can be chained ! Cant wait to see these in person The nanopad will be the cheapest device i know of that has a XY pad on it too ! |
| Axiss Xs 14.06.2008 | but is there any innovation? the nano pad just looks like a small padkontrol...ok its great but nothing new...or? |
| daniela klein 14.06.2008 | I'm hoping & praying these will be able to be chained. |
| Xavier Emanuels 14.06.2008 | I agree, huge thumbs up to Korg. |
13.06.2008 | I was just going to post something about the nanopad as well It looks really really interesting |
