Korg nanoPAD (Black) (No Longer Available)Item ID: nanoPADblkUSB Drum Pad Controller with 12 Velocity-sensitive Pads, X-Y Pad, and Software - Black 
Sorry, the Korg nanoPAD (Black) is no longer available. We've left this page up for reference only. Check out the great alternatives on this page or call toll-free (800) 222-4700 to speak with a Sweetwater Sales Engineer about similar products. From Our Research Team:An Ultra-slim USB Pad Controller!The Korg nanoPAD takes Korg's acclaimed padKONTROL and puts it into an even smaller format! Offering 12 great-feeling, highly-responsive pads, the nanoPAD boasts a suite of impressive features packed into its ultra-slim body. A Chord Trigger function lets you use a single pad to enter chords so you can work even faster. Plus, the pads can also transmit control change messages — great for triggering clips during live performances. An onboard X-Y pad offers "Roll" and "Flam" modes for the most in realistic grooving, and Korg KONTROL Editor software lets you customize your Korg nanoPAD!A part of Korg's latest nano series, the nanoPAD is insanely slim, yet packed Korg-style with pro-level features. On top of its excellent-feeling 12 pads, the nanoPAD features a handy Chord Trigger function so you can enter chords onto a single pad. Plus, pads are capable of triggering control change messages — great for soloing or muting mixer tracks, turning objects on and off, or triggering clips during your live performances. What's more, the nanoPAD boasts an onboard X-Y pad with "Roll" and "Flam" modes that lets you really get inside your sound and lay down ultra-realistic drum grooves. You can also use the X-Y pad to send MIDI Control Change messages, to take charge of any software parameter that demands full-range MIDI control such as pitch, cutoff, volume, and beyond. Yes, small in size — but Korg's ardent commitment to superb design guaranteed that the nanoPAD would be huge in its features. Despite being an ultra-convenient USB MIDI pad controller as it is, you can even download Korg Kontrol Editor software for free and customize the nanoPAD to match your individual needs. That way, you can store four scenes within the nanoPAD to suit your needs, giving you access to 48 notes/chords, 60 MIDI controllers, or any combination of the two types of data at any given time. Plus, you can select one of three velocity curves or a fixed velocity to tailor the nanoPAD to your touch. And, to get you grooving straight out of the box, Korg added a full copy of acclaimed Toontrack EZDrummer Lite software. Korg nanoPAD 12-pad USB MIDI Controller Features at a Glance:

ReviewsBuy this now!
by Jason Duerr from chicago
Should I buy one or two more of these right now?February 22, 2009 Music Background: Gigging musician (DJ and band), Yes, I get paid. I'm an Ableton DJ, and I add a lot of improvisation / on the fly features to my mixes. The nanopad is an excellent companion. The pads can be us... read more [+]ed to trigger loops, but you can also have it retrigger loops on the 16th note, giving you stuttering effects. Combined with the roll and flam features, you can get some very interesting build ups when transitioning tracks. Also, if I enable this as a drum pad on an Impulse / drum machine track, I add samples over mixes. My recommendation is to set up a drum bank with some snares / kicks for use with the roll feature, then some vocal hits. This thing was INSTANTLY useful, set up time was zero, and I'm totally blown away by the value for the price. Also for all you circuit bent peeps, buy the pad and the keys, and a tube of PVC piping, and roll your own keytar. I use the nanopad with other more feature rich (and expensive) usb midi controllers, but you know what, the nanopad seems to get all the attention. For the price I paid for my other controller, I should have bought all three of the nano series. When it comes down to it, it's just more fun than anything else I own. close [-] Used to love it, until it gave up the ghost
by Wheat from
I loved this controller, but it's headed for the trash bin, probably today. I've had it for only two years of very light use (just production work around the house, and not many hours of that) and now... read more [+] only half the pads are fully functional (four are dead, two work intermittently). The pads themselves are nice, the X/Y controller is a lot of fun. The editing software is unfun but functional. But none of that matters, as the build quality just isn't there. I'm going to try Akai, next (an MPD18 or an LPD8), as I have an LPK25 and really like it. close [-]
November 28, 2010 Music Background: Seems you get what you pay for
by CLChilton from Falls Church, VA USA
Good price, nice looking and worked well. For one session! The second time I hooked it up one of the pads stopped responding properly (the kick drum pad no less). Based on a few other user's findings ... read more [+]I don't want another and will try the Akai instead. Too cheaply made to be a good piece of equipment it seems. close [-]
January 13, 2010 Music Background: Hobbyist Do not buy this shoddy product
by Trenton from St Louis, MO
This is a Great product, if you like buying them over and over. My first one worked great until the USB connector broke on it. Exchanged it for a second one and after about a year of very light use,... read more [+] only 2 of the pads work correctly. I hope the nanoPad2 is better than this peice of garbage. close [-]

Seemed like a great idea. Never triggered properly-from the start.
