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

verification codes, computer ID's, locking codes license codes, PIN keys... After the trauma of installing, these two peices of software seem to have value though.

I was able to reattach the keys, but it put the breaks on what was otherwise a productive session. The nanoKey2 is vastly superior. The keys are still more like a laptop keyboard than a synth, but i am not worried about having them fly off while I'm playing. If you are looking for a mini-keyboard controller for a small pricetag, I would give this one a try. close [-]
