From Our Research Team:

The Ultimate Compact Drum Controller

The Korg nanoPad 2 USB MIDI controller takes the Korg nano-series to the next level. Sporting a new and improved design, the 16 percussion pads are more responsive and expressive than ever before. Four user-programmable Scenes give you access to 64 pad assignments for a ton of control in a small package. New to the nanoPad series is the Touch Scale function, which gives you the power to play notes and scales from the X-Y pad! You can also assign chords to any of the pads for ultimate control over any software instrument, not just drums! And for recording and live performance alike, the new Gate-arp function lets you play tempo-sync'd phrases and rhythms just by holding a pad or touching the X-Y pad. All of these features would be impressive on a controller of any size - the added portability and durability of the Korg nanoPad 2 makes it the ideal controller for today's mobile musician.

  • USB powered for true portability
  • New and improved design means solid performance and enhanced responsiveness
  • Korg Kontrol Editor lets you program four User Scenes for ultimate customization

I have to say it's the most personal order I've ever made from the pre-ship phone call, to the email, and finally the candy in the box. Thanks! I don't think I could beat the customer service even in a local shop

I like the pad itself, seems well built, the pads have good sensitivity and all. What I don't like is the VERY vague instructions that come with it.

I still haven't figured out how to customize each individual pad to my liking and thus, I've been stuck using the default pad layout. I'm using this with EZDrummer. Still, it's worth the money I think. close [-]

My need was for something lightweight and portable and the Korg scores well on these attributes. I use it as a drum pad controller with my iPad and it does an admirable job.
