The nanoKEY2 features a modern and advanced design. By combining the comfortable key action developed by Korg for its professional MIDI keyboards with the flat profile of the latest computer keyboards, the nanoKEY2 offers superior keyboard response for its class and size. It is designed with sufficiently wide keys and ample space between them, reducing the likelihood of hitting the wrong note. The key pressure and velocity response are carefully calibrated, ensuring that your expressive performance is transmitted accurately to your software.

The octave shift buttons, borrowed from Korg's MIDI controllers, allow you to shift the overall pitch by four steps, either up or down, in octave increments. Combined with the transpose function, the nanoKEY2 can access the entire range of MIDI notes. For enhanced performances, the nanoKEY2 also includes pitch bend buttons, a modulation button, and a sustain button, which are essential for piano or electric piano playing. The on/off switch speed for each of these buttons can be set across four levels to ensure smooth transitions that match your performance.

Simply connect a single USB cable from your computer to the nanoKEY2, and you have a fast and portable music production system. Power and USB-MIDI data are transmitted through the same cable, creating a clean and efficient workspace. The nanoKEY2 works with the Korg Kontrol Editor software, allowing you to make detailed adjustments. Choose from a total of four velocity levels: three velocity curves or fixed velocity; set the control change messages transmitted by the modulation button and the sustain button.
