Perfected!

The nanokey2 is simply a perfection of the first nanokey. No more keys breaking or popping off. Great MIDI controller.

Cute keyboard, works nicely with iPad

Extremely light and thin. I carry it around a lot and basically forget about it in my bag.

Works nicely with iPad using the camera connection kit.

Velocity is not super ... read more [+]sensitive, but it works.

Keys are kind of loud, like a loose computer keyboard. but it's bearable. close [-]

Korg nanoKEY2: innocent to the untrained eye...

I bought this keyboard on an extremely tight budget and found it to be a little more than what I expected. The basic statement is that you are getting what you pay for. The USB MIDI driver was a sinch... read more [+] to install and route to the controller and the editor software has a great basic MIDI clock. So yeah, it's not a proffesinal studio choice, but gets stuff done well on the go whether your in a coffee shop or on a plane, the nanoKEY2 likes to show off its portability. It's great how it is bus-fed power through the USB link. For my rig, stage and studio, I used it for Native Instruments software like Reaktor, Massive, and FM8 (my superman), but I found it useful that it is versitile enough for sampling and even can be used for drum triggers for programs like Battery 3. The keys have no feel, but are velocity sensitive. But the price makes up for the no feel. So overall, it is a great portable solution to on-the-go music making and has earned a spot in my studio-in-a-backpack and on my stage rig. I am now attempting DAW trials, but for production like that, leave it to the bigger brothers like the Axioms. close [-]
