It is battery operated and can connect wirelessly to iPhone/iPad or Mac/Windows. It's a compact, mobile MIDI keyboard that is easy to travel with, allowing ease of use anytime Review: Great for beginners. - Great introductory piece of kit for budding beat makers, comes with some starter software that's a bit of a pain to install but the device itself is almost plug + play. A slight delay with certain programs on pressing the keys, but with others it's great, you soon get used to the delay however so this is best used as either a practice tool or suffer through the mild frustration. However for the price it'd be hard to find something as well built. Review: Great value and works great for triggering playbacks. - I use this as part of my lighting setup with an Avolites T2 with the USB MIDI Triggering. This works fantastically for firing playbacks. Super responsive and comfortably fires multiple playbacks quickly and with ease. The software is a little tricky to get everything right but it's easy enough. Windows loves to keep changing which driver it's going to use and then breaks my control a little bit so beware of windows doing this to you! This is not the fault of the device. ## Features - Excellent for playing or entering drum data - Sixteen solid, responsive, and velocity-sensitive trigger pads - Usb powered - Free software bundle included via download - Compatible with ipad via camera kit ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B004M8YPKM | | Brand | KORG | | Brand Name | KORG | | Colour | Black | | Compatible Devices | PC, laptop | | Connectivity Technology | USB | | Connectivity technology | USB | | Connector Type | USB | | Control Method | App | | Control Type | MIDI controller | | Country of Origin | China | | Customer Reviews | 4.2 out of 5 stars 1,087 Reviews | | Global Trade Identification Number | 04959112081062 | | Hardware Interface | USB | | Hardware Platform | x86_64 | | Human Interface Input | Touch Pad | | Included Components | USB Cable | | Instrument | Multiple instruments | | Instrument Key | Any | | Item Type Name | Korg nanoPAD2 - Slimline USB MIDI 16-Pad Controller - Black | | Item Weight | 0.36 Kilograms | | Keyboard Description | 16-pad USB drum pad controller | | Manufacturer | KORG | | Manufacturer Part Number | NANOPAD2BK | | Material Type | Plastic | | Maximum Range | 0.5 Metres | | Mixer Channel Quantity | 16 | | Model Name | NANOPAD2BK | | Model Number | NANOPAD2BK | | Model Year | 2018 | | Model name | NANOPAD2BK | | Number of Keys | 1 | | Number of keys | 1 | | Platform | Mac OS X 10.10 Yosemite, Windows 11 | | Product Style | nanoPAD2 | | Product Warranty | 1 year manufacturer warranty. | | Size | Einheitsgrâße | | Special Features | Portable | | Special feature | Portable | | Supported Software | Music Production Applications | | Total USB 2.0 Ports | 1 | | Total USB Ports | 1 | | UPC | 884088605940 989898857609 721405639755 700736573761 670716008456 | | Unit Count | 1.0 count | ## Product Details - **Brand:** KORG - **Connectivity technology:** USB - **Model name:** NANOPAD2BK - **Number of keys:** 1 - **Special feature:** Portable ## Images ![Korg - nanoPAD2 - Slimline USB MIDI 16-Pad Controller - Black - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51qRVDHU9KL.jpg) ![Korg - nanoPAD2 - Slimline USB MIDI 16-Pad Controller - Black - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41G0V5wBdPL.jpg) ![Korg - nanoPAD2 - Slimline USB MIDI 16-Pad Controller - Black - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71y2Bv3x0vL.jpg) ![Korg - nanoPAD2 - Slimline USB MIDI 16-Pad Controller - Black - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51yZmRfxrgL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Color, Style** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: Is there a way of using the different knobs/dials for different windows volume? e.g chrome on the first and Skype on an another?** A: There's an app called MIDI Mixer that provides pretty deep integration (uses lights etc) and does that! Disclaimer: I'm the creator. :) **Q: will this work with Mixcraft daw** A: i am not sure, i found it almost impossible to set it up for reason and cubase. :( i haven't used it to make music once yet. I wish you more luck than i had. **Q: Re korg nanokontrol midi controller, does this work well with samplitude music studio?** A: I think it should work with any DAW. I use it in Reaper, Logic, Garageband on Mac and Reaper and Cakewalk on win10. It's just right for me as I can only play some chords for pads, strings and some organ stabs. Aslo I use it with Drum synths. **Q: Hi, I’m a little confused. The photos for the listing are of a nano key2 in white, but the white option to select is of a nano pad. Which one is it?** A: I think it depends what's in stock.. I can see the white key version today (13th September) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great for beginners. *by B***Y on 5 June 2016* Great introductory piece of kit for budding beat makers, comes with some starter software that's a bit of a pain to install but the device itself is almost plug + play. A slight delay with certain programs on pressing the keys, but with others it's great, you soon get used to the delay however so this is best used as either a practice tool or suffer through the mild frustration. However for the price it'd be hard to find something as well built. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great value and works great for triggering playbacks. *by O***M on 28 October 2023* I use this as part of my lighting setup with an Avolites T2 with the USB MIDI Triggering. This works fantastically for firing playbacks. Super responsive and comfortably fires multiple playbacks quickly and with ease. The software is a little tricky to get everything right but it's easy enough. Windows loves to keep changing which driver it's going to use and then breaks my control a little bit so beware of windows doing this to you! This is not the fault of the device. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ First Impressions *by J***O on 2 November 2012* My nanoPAD2 arrived this morning and I must admit I was intially caught out by the packaging. The USB lead is tucked neatly at one end under a cardboard flap so it appears the box is empty, hopefully that tip will save you a couple of minutes. Installation was swift, the drivers seemed to install well on Win7-64 even though the site suggests a fix would be needed for Win7 32/64. My tool of choice is Propellerheads Reason 6. Adding the nano2 to the Reason set up was simple and I was tapping away drums and messing about with synths in no time. The construction seems solid and the device itself is bigger than I expected which makes it very comfortable to play (for scale purposes the touchpad is similar in size to that of a notebook's). The 'Kaos' pad can be used in a number of modes which will be fun to play with even though I'm not sure what I'm going to do with it yet... The note-pads themselves have a decent - velocity sensitive - response and I had a lot of fun tapping out beats with it and I'm no drummer. One thing that seems to be a bit of a gripe is the apparant inability to change the octave of the pads themselves. While the touchpad is in 'touch scale mode' it is affected by octave shifts. This may be a limitation of my understanding of how to use this but I thought it was worth mentioning as I didn't even think of this when I bought it. I is perhaps possible to do this within the Korg Kontrol Editor but my brief experience with this software wasn't plesant. I will endeavour to flesh this part of my review when I have more experience. All in all though my 4* is based on the fact that this seems a quality bit of hardware for a very reasonable price. ## Frequently Bought Together - Korg nanoPAD2 Slim-Line USB MIDI Pads - Black - Korg, 25-Key Midi Controller (NANOKEY2BK),Black - Korg nanoKONTROL2 Slim-Line USB Control Surface, Black --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.be/products/49125226-korg-nanopad2-slimline-usb-midi-16-pad-controller-black](https://www.desertcart.be/products/49125226-korg-nanopad2-slimline-usb-midi-16-pad-controller-black) --- *Product available on Desertcart Belgium* *Store origin: BE* *Last updated: 2026-07-05*
