    Default Korg nanoPAD 2 USB

    Hi!

    You haven't missed this, right?



    http://www.engadget.com/2011/01/14/k...b-controllers/

    Searched the forum but didn't find anything about it!

    Why buy something, when you can build it yourself for the double cost?

    But the key question is: Will it blend?

    I mean break. Will it break. I know a lot of people got mightily pissed off by the shoddy build quality of the first lot of nanos.

    that way you can have it in front of a notebook (or even over the touchpad) with minimal footprint. these things were designed as "temporary" solutions for the travelling peeps

    does it light up? if not i still prefer ye ol' akai lpd8 for a "temporary solution" more like "practical cost solution"

    I wonder how the nano Kontrol 2 is gun look like. . .I hope there's more faders and knobs. . I ran out of those on ALL 4 scenes. . .

    I just hope the quality lasts longer on the pads tho. . .

    *back to work*

    BTW. . @Oskars
    Ever get your controller working yet?

    Yup. I might buy one of these if Best Buy carries these, just because I have a stupid gift card to use up.

    I've been using a NanoKontrol with turntables every weekend since it came out and I love it.

    The layout the new one is cleaner than the previous version with the buttons more spaced out, but I noticed that Korg eliminated a whole row and a button from the transport.

    That means they added 8 buttons but deleted 3 buttons, a knob, and a fader.

    Kinda evens out, doesn't it.

    I just got a nanokontrol v1 recently for use alongside cdj's/external mixer and for some use with ableton in the future. iv got to say, it doesnt really seem like they've improved much on this range, definately not disappointed i didnt wait a bit longer before getting it.
