James Zabiela on Korg Nanopad, Traktor Pro & Gater filter
saw this surfing da youtubes.
James Zabiela on the new korg nanopad using Traktor Pro’s Gater and Delay (@ very end) effects.
sounds nice.
I will definitely picking up one of these for $60USD street they are asking…
PS: whats the forum code to embed yt vids? or is there none? 
I dont think there is one, also those Korg Nano’s do horrible things to your signal strength and quality. I keep away fom external effects processors like he plague personally.
huh? the nanopad in the vid is midi only. all the effects are coming from traktor pro…
Edit: clarified original post.
aren’t the nanopads and the new korg mini controllers strictly midi controller devices?
No Audio.
Looks nice, highly inexpensive also- great bonus for a MIDI controller that is ideally only used for Traktor effects
i think bento got confuse with the mini kaoss pad lol 
Def keen to get a set of these controllers. Been waiting for thier release for a while. Dould make a dope little mini live setup.
Oops sorry i thought we were talking about the Korg Mini Kaoscilator for some stupid reason 
Should have checked the video before i posted but i was a little short for time this morning !
Korg Kaos Mini = crap
Korg Nanopad = cool
i really like my mini kaoss pad so there!
Its a cool toy to attach to your mp3 player, but that is about as far as i would go with it. That said everyones entitled to their own opinion.
Fair enough - I think the filter on it is great and I use the white noise a fair bit they both sound cool, it is cheap though but wouldnt call it a toy.
Think i’ll grab one of these nanopads though, what Zabiela does with it sounds good - anyone know how he’s got it mapped?
Looks like a very simple map - horizontal is Gater speed, vertical is Gater Shape.
One button toggles the FX on/off. That’s about it.
Sounds impressive, but it’s just the most basic mapping anyone could do!
So, help me with this decision.
Buy 1 Korg padKontrol - $149
-XY touch pad
-2 Knobs
-16 Pads (4 for each deck… or something)
-Change Midi layout on controller
-Some other buttons I don’t understand
-Disadvantage:
-Larger
Buy 1 nanoPad - $59
-XY touch pad
-12 Pads (3 for each deck… or 4 for each effect?)
-Small size
-Could get 2 for less than 1 padKontrol
-Disadvantage:
-Could use 2, but that’s another USB Port taken
Also, has anyone looked at the other Korg nano stuff? NanoKey or the NanoKontrol?
Okay, so call me an impulse buyer, but I already bought the NanoPad. I was already seriously considering the KontrolPad, but didn’t want the extra size and weight… The small size factor and at just $57 on DJDeals.com I couldn’t resist… I’ll give it a review when it arrives.
But still, has anyone check out the other nano stuff or are you guys just going to wait another 20 minutes to see if I buy those too?
Cool purchase bro’, bring on the review! 
I picked up a nanokey yesterday to use for hot cues/effect select and any other functions that my numark omni hasn’t got enough buttons for.
OK so it’s not a proper midi keyboard (buttons instead of piano style keys), but for the money I’m happy. The Korg website also has a cool download to remap the midi signals (change midi channel) which I found after spending ages trying to find out how the F to do it. It fit’s flush to the bottom of my 13" Macbook too!
Check this out , we were talking about it the other day. I got the nano Kontrol & I am loving it !
