However if you want an xy pad and don't have any velocity sensitive pads either, this is a good controller

Great Midi Controller

But this controller is really handy and affordable

(Very few controllers work with Garageband!)

This is a nice little controller

The best controller you have is the one that you actually have with you when you need it, and Korg has made a device here that is actually practical enough to carry with you just about anywhere.

Before buying the Korg Nano Kontrol2, I was looking at much more expensive controllers ($200-$500).

Great off synth controller

and i would totally buy another one, that is how great this daw controller is

A no nonsense extremely lightweight midi controller

Obviously, some people are going to prefer a stay @ home/studio midi controller in some

I'm seriously considering just returning and picking up a better midi controller for a little more

I really like this controller

I bought this nanoKontrol to use it with Ableton Live 9, I use different tracks, midis and audio, so I needed something to help me control the DAW, this is an amazing controller, everything is very helpful, and it works as a native controller with Live 9, but you can also assign every function as you want

I use this controller every week and it works great

This controller worked great for me.

Great little keyboard controller, works great with garage band or pro tools.

and it's a fantastic secondary controller that is a huge space saver.

But all in all, It is a respectable little controller

Obviously if you spend more you will get something massive, but this little controller is very powerful for very little money.

a little bit expensive but native machine is the best and the top for drums midi controller and the AKAI MPD very good too and only $40 more than this defective controller

Very good controller

Great little controller for your DAW, or whatever

Love this controller

So, to summarize, if you can't afford a more serious mix controller but you're sick and tired of using a mouse for everything, this is an acceptable option that will ease a lot of that burden

Usually, even with other decent midi controllers (I have the Roland AX-09

It is the cheapest controller I've seen so far, and I believe it's worth the buck you pay.

AWESOME little midi-controller

and you will get a very good drums midi controller.

I think these controllers are quite decent.

This controller is absolutely fantastic if you're looking for a basic MIDI drumpad for a ridiculously low cost

Pretty cool little controller

Other then that, its a nice controller to have around.

Plastic ain't a bad thing.-This controller could more or less likely be dropped repeatedly and it might only crack the case

It even works on my Surface RT as a midi controller

Very cool little midi controller

Great for programming beats as well as a general MIDI controller for whatever instrument you want

good price on a super-portable controller

I remember somebody saying the original nanokontrol had one...wonder why they ditched it?Anyway, can't decide between this and Akai Professional MIDImix | High-Performance Portable USB Mixer/DAW Controller (24 knobs / 16 buttons / 8 line faders) which looks a little nicer, bigger (not necessarily an asset for me)

Awesome affordable midi controller.

The negative comments of certain users, I can understand that the controller is stiff, however it can be too sensitive too

I would first like to say that, for the price, this controller is awesome

Don’t waste your money on defective controller not working, no power at all and very old model from 2011, there are lot of brand like akai mpd and akai mpc much better and 2016 2017 and there is NATIVE

Overall its a great controller and its cheap too

but other then that its an amazing midi controller

This is a very well made controller and a great adjunct to other devices, like the Korg nanokey2, which don't have any controls other than the basics

This is a decent little controller.
