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.

Ease of Use:

Quality:
Subject:Wasn't expecting much, got even less
Quality: Keys are flimsy and wobbly. They feel as though they'll come off pretty easily. Does not seem as though it would last long if used reguarly.
Features: It would be wonderful if they included a disk with all the software, or at least some simple direct links to find it on their website. Only thing worthwile on this toy is it's size and the fact that if you want to use it as is (without editing anything), it functions by pretty much just plugging it in. As is it was unusable however to me, unless I wanted to just record some synth pads.
Ease of Use: Could not get the editor to recognize the nanokey. Tried it on 2 computers, got some assistance on the korg forum until their rep gave up and left me hanging. The drivers and downloads that the instructions say need to be installed are incredibly hard to locate on their website. Nothing comes up when you search "nanokey". You have to somehow know to simply search "nano". Incredibly frustrating. Others on their forum had similar problems.
Sound: Irrevelvant.
Action: The sensitivity out of the box was pretty bad. You have to hit the keys fairly hard to get them to respond. Wanted to change the sensitivity with the "kontrol editor". That's when the real fun began.
Value: No.
Do you own this product?: I just got myself a return authorization.
