Description

FEATURES

• Low-profile, 25-key USB-MIDI keyboard, ideal for use with laptop and netbook computers
• Advanced-design keybed offers improved accuracy and velocity-sensitive keys.
• Sustain button – ideal for entering piano parts!
• Accurate, responsive, and great-feeling keybed:
  The nanoKEY2 features an advanced and up-to-date design. By combining the great-feeling “touch” that Korg has developed for its professional MIDI keyboards and the low-profile “thinness” of recent computer keyboard innovations, the nanoKEY2 provides a superior keyboard response for its class and size. It s designed with ample key width and plenty of space between the keys, reducing the chances of a wrong note. The touch and velocity response have been carefully tuned, as only a manufacturer with Korg s track record and know-how can, ensuring that your expressive performance will be conveyed accurately to your software.
  Control buttons provide simple yet versatile control
  The Octave Shift buttons – borrowed from Korg s MIDI controllers – allow the overall pitch to be shifted four levels, either UP or DOWN, in octave increments. When used in conjunction with the Key Transpose feature, the nanoKEY2 can access the entire range of the notes in the MIDI spectrum. For enhanced performances, the nanoKEY2 also provides Pitch Bend buttons, a Modulation button, and a Sustain button; one that s indispensible for piano or electric piano performance. For each of these buttons, the on off switching speed can be specified over four levels (using Korg Kontrol Editor), ensuring smooth changes that are appropriate for your performance.
  Korg Kontrol Editor software
  The nanoKEY2 works with the Korg Kontrol Editor software – available free on the Korg website. Load it into your computer, and use it to make detailed customized settings. Choose from a total of four velocity settings: three velocity curves or fixed velocity; specify the control change messages transmitted by the modulation button and the sustain button. 
  USB power for an uncluttered setup
  Just connect a single USB cable from your computer to the nanoKEY2, and you ve got a quick and portable music production system. Power and USB-MIDI data travels down the same wire for a clean, efficient workspace.
