The nanoKONTROL2 is a body-proportioned controller designed to fit perfectly in front of your laptop computer, providing eight channels of the controllers you need to control your music software. This compact and portable device features a dedicated transport control section, with buttons carefully selected to be useful with your software, ensuring simple and intuitive control. Many software titles, including major DAW programs, are supported, dramatically reducing the need for complicated connection settings.

Each of the eight channels is equipped with a knob, fader, and three switches, respectively assigned to pan, volume, and solo/mute/record. This arrangement is a real convenience when recording automation for multiple channels. The nanoKONTROL2 also includes a marker button, making it easy to assign marks at important points in your song for more efficient recording and song production.

When using a software synthesizer, you can assign parameters to the desired controllers for easy control. For example, you could use the faders to control the ADSR of an envelope generator and the knobs to control the filter's cutoff frequency and resonance.

The nanoKONTROL2 works seamlessly with the "Korg Kontrol Editor" software, available for free on the Korg website. By loading this software into your computer, you can make detailed customized settings, such as specifying the minimum and maximum values for each control change message.

Connecting the nanoKONTROL2 to your computer with a single USB cable creates a quick and portable music production system. The device's power and USB-MIDI data travel down the same wire, ensuring a clean and efficient workspace.

The nanoKONTROL2 is a low-profile, multi-function control surface that offers new track select and marker advance parameters, supporting numerous software titles, including major DAW programs. Its compact and portable design, combined with its intuitive controls and customization options, make it a valuable tool for music production on the go.
