Korg nanoKEY 25 Key USB Controller Keyboard

The Korg nanoKey 25 Key Keyboard is a unique, easily transportable MIDI Controller Keyboard that is little in size, but huge with functionality and features!
When Korg set out to build a slim-line MIDI controller keyboard, they utilized their years of experience in manufacturing innovative MIDI keyboards to create a great-feeling, velocity sensitive keyboard based off a laptop keyboard. The resulting 25-note keyboard on the nanoKEY will transmit your playing dynamics to your software accurately and expressively.

In CC (Control Change) MODE, the keys become MIDI controllers, allowing you to control any MIDI assignable parameters within your software.

The Octave Shift function offers immediate access to the entire MIDI note range. Pitch and modulation buttons are also provided, giving your performances the kind of expression that you would expect from any controller regardless of its size.

With the KORG KONTROL Editor (downloadable free of charge from korg.com), you can customize the nanoKEY to match your control needs. It lets you select between three velocity curves or fixed velocity, set MIDI CC values, and even allows you to edit the assignments for the minimum and maximum values of the control change messages transmitted by the modulation buttons or in CC MODE.

As an added value, the nanoKEY also includes a download code for the full version of Korg’s M1Le, which faithfully recreates the legendary Korg M1 workstation. Plus, an upgrade path will let you graduate to the Legacy DIGITAL EDITION software suite, which has an even more expansive version of the M1, the renowned WaveStation and 19 great MDEX effects. Also included is a free downloadable Editor/Librarian to help you create setups to suit your specific control needs.

Sound:
Subject:Amazingly simple, out-of-box easy to use exceptional value a must have MIDI controller!
Quality: Yes and it seems like can take some serious abuse in a long run that I am planning for it myself!
Features: Velocity sensitive keys! I wish it had some sort of a slip case or carrying bag included for traveling purposes. I will be using the bubble wrap until it shreds to pieces.
Ease of Use: Simple plug it in and rock win any MIDI interface your computer might have! Vista users can download the KORG USB-MIDI driver from KORG website to avoid any possible conflicts and to properly identify the nanoKEY in your computer. It's a breeze!
Sound: The harder you hit the keys that louder it will get!
Action: Immediate response!
Value: Exceptional value under $50.00. Totally worth it! This is a must-have item for any musician who had ever tried MIDI instrument. This one is the life-saver when you need it right there with wherever you might be at that very moment when muse strikes.
Do you own this product?: yes, I own it!

Subject:Mine is going back.
Quality: This produce is of the lowest possible quality. I wanted to give it a shot because of the portability and the excitement that this line of controllers has generated (I LOVE my NanoKontrol by the way). But the keys are louder than went I make beats using the QWERTY... I usually know within an hour whether or not a piece of gear is right for me. This one was no exception. I knew I would be sending it back.
Features: The features don't read all that bad on paper: Velocity Sensitive, 2 octave range with Octave Up/Down buttons, CC Mode, Mod and Pitch buttons, usb plug and play, Korg editor software. But, the build quality is just not there. This is the area where more attention should have been paid. I mean I know it is a 50 dollar midi cont. But does that mean it has to look and feel like a toy???
Ease of Use: The product is very easy to use. It's plug and play.
Sound: Controller = no sound. Although the keys click VERY loudly, so I guess you could say it makes sounds which is NOT a good thing!
Action: Come on now, it's 50 a fifty dollar plastic midi keyboard... You already know that the action sucks!
Value: I think 50 bucks twice as much as what this item is worth. It is the worst out of the three Nano products, WITHOUT A DOUBT. The other two are very good values, but not this...
Do you own this product?: No, returned it.
