Korg NanoPad Overview: Bangin' Beats Has Never Been This...Small?

[thejedireviewer14]

PlZ ANSWER ..... Do u have to plug it into ur computer

[aphexaed]

@thejedireviewer14 of course

[TheGibsonguitarguy]

how do you upload samples to nanopad like mp3 sounds or wave files?

[Foreignsik]

@TheGibsonguitarguy Doesn't work that way.

[MusicFreaky6]

can i use this with a Avid keystudio KeyBoard?

[dioxide74]

NanoPad = biggest pile of crap ever produced by a music instrument manufacturer. 2 x units DOA so I'm going to spend my time trying to do £60 worth of damage to Korg's reputation. Which is probably a drop in the ocean compared to the damage Korg themselves have caused. Avoid at all costs!

[VLangsandtheTit]

stupid question, but coming from acid pro so a bit confused.

I have the nanoPAD and just bought ableton

Is there anyway I can load, say the 808 drums or 909 drums onto scene 1 and then some samples of mp3 cuts (cuts of different songs) onto another scene?

I used to do that with an MPC, but before I open ableton I need to be able to do that. It's basic, but it's enough to bang out beats. can I also cut mp3 files from within ableton as well?

any advice or link would be appreciated

[SoldierBeats]

I got the akai lpd 8 its great but not with fl studio , the pads are better than from the korg but i prefer the korg

[mrbyg97]

which is better: nanopad or nanokey

[gumdrops27]

@mrbyg97

That''s like saying "which is better a piano or a drumset." It really depends on your purpose of getting a controller.

[Fulltonic]

does it have to be plugged to make sounds?

[underground235]

@Fulltonic no it runs on battery, and makes sound with it's in built speakers, drawing on sounds in it's in built memory.

[justiny45]

@underground235

you're a terrific person

[apmusic2010]

@underground235 lol

[MrSimongey]

need to turn the music down i can here you !!

[NatesStudio]

it shouuld have rubber feet

thumbs up if you agree

[gumdrops27]

@NatesStudio But it does have rubber feet :p

[waytoolit]

The best small investment you'll ever make as a DJ.

[Pimpinpaul500]

do you need a program for the NanoPad? like traktor duo? or can you just plug it in the computer and it comes with a program?

[freeridergod]

@Pimpinpaul500 the nanopad comes with a software made by korg. for korg products. :)

[Pimpinpaul500]

@freeridergod thank you! :)

[jakegambino]

i just bought one, LOVE IT!!!

[onizuka8]

how do i set the nanopad up with Reason 4.0's Redrum?

I have found this on some review-like website...

"Using the Korg Kontrol Editor software, I went back and reprogrammed it so that Pad 1 would trigger Redrum's Channel 1 sample (C2), Pad 2 would trigger Channel 2 (C#2), and so on."

I Did that but get no sound from it.

its not reason cos my nanokey works with it.

If someone could help a brother out id be really appreciative.

i have no idea bout this stuff at all!

[mouthbreather1]

@onizuka8: I haven't used Reason in a while, but from what I remember you need to configure it to send MIDI notes to Redrum. I think you can do that from the module that's way at the top, the one that lists all the outputs you have. You should have an option there to configure specific MIDI controllers to send notes to instruments & whatnot.

[waytoolit]

@mouthbreather1

Reason 5 now supports it out of the box. Even has a lil picture of it as well in device list. :p

[mouthbreather1]

@waytoolit Haha, are they on 5 already? I haven't used Reason in a loooong time. But it's nice they added out of the box support.

[waytoolit]

@mouthbreather1

Yeah, they've added a ton of new device for it and Kong drum designer / Dr Octo rex which are pretty sick. Blocks is a pimp new feature as well, really useful... They got support for multi cores now too which is nice for rendering really big tracks. =] love it so far!

[UploadUplink]

Five stars for the title.

[dieguitocampeon]

what is the program you are using?

[EFKA526]

ableton live is the sequencer

[germancillo]

This thing sucks. I bought all the NANo Pads, and they didnt last. Keys on the Nano Key fell apart (3 of them). The NAno pad doesnt omit any sound on three keys. So if you want something that last . get an Axiom keyboard controller. Serioulsly

[ThDuddd]

lol, 'omit'

[eatthemoon13]

@germancillo i need something to make beats for my guitar tracks. does this or the mpc come straight out the box ready to make beats or do i need to buy some expensive program. or lead me to something please that i could buy that would do all that.

[djkavika]

Took my nanokeys out of the box, I watched one of the keys pop off without touching it after a few minutes.

[HigherrConsciousness]

@djkavika  lollol u serious?

[MrBrandonPeoples]

@HigherrConsciousness I plugged in the usb cable and the port fell inside the controller

[MrBrandonPeoples]

@djkavika I plugged in the usb cable and the port fell inside the controller

[bil768]

anyone recommend a software program to use,

[skatechatham]

this is a MIDI CONTROLLER, it will control any sounds in any good DAW (music software) including FLStudio, Ableton, Garageband etc etc etc

[WIPilot1993]

does it come with software? does it work with FLStudio

[xXxPUN1SH3RxX]

When he refers back 2 his computer, does that recording software stuff come with the NanoPad?

[ieatdoody]

you get a discount with it for some software

[Packman850]

looks awesome i need one

[MagicalRory]

do u rate this over a padkontrol?

[cpaden7]

im using one with sonar 7 producer edition and when i use the roll real fast it pulsates. any answers?

[muncle]

does this work with garageband?

[MagicalRory]

yes

[clementgelly]

can you apply different recorded sounds to the buttons with garageband?

and would you put it as a live drum track or not

[MagicalRory]

I dont know. i  dont own it

[policjant80]

what is the name of the software using in this video???

[watwatwhywat]

[RubixDigitales]

It's Ableton Live, however he's only using Live as a frontend to run the Battery 3 VSTi which a seperate drum machine program made by native instruments.

[JohnF30Music]
