Once the NanoKontrol works it saves you so much time....i really enjoy mine

Great video! Simple and concise, but definitely some fiddling things that myself and I'm sure many other users have missed! One thing I'd add is that in the Control Surfaces Setup window, under the New dropdown, you need to deselect 'Automaic Installation', otherwise every time you open Logic is will scan for new devices and add the nanoKontrol as a generic DAW controller, erasing all of your assignments in the Korg app. The Korg doesn't need to be added as a control surface in this dialogue at all, Logic just recognises its MIDI data. After I did this it worked a treat.

Hi Martin, quick check before I go ahead and buy the Korg NanoKontrol2 - If you have ever used the Spitfire Orchestral samples or anything else, they have this really simple feature of right-click on the expression/dynamics/modulation/vibrato slider on the Logic Pro interface, say learn midi function and simply move any of the faders. Does this occur in the NanoKontrol as well? Also, how did you feel about the size? Was it too small? I can't seem to find an affordable 60 mm fader port to control Midi cc values like you explained. Any help will be appreciated!

@MartinHeidenreichMusic

Dear Sai, yes, that right-click function works just great in every library (Spitfire Audio, Audio Imperia, Project Sam, Heavyocity...) Important that you are in CC mode. The size is a good compromise, at least for me. Finds its place on the keyboard and you can work with it, you just have to get used to the short travel of the faders, maybe a little bit longer would be better but for me it's really enough. As I said, you will get used to it, the touch and feel is really good and the faders have the perfect friction (at least for me). And if I mess up whilst recording then I just correct it in the editor :)

@@raagamuffin Thank you so much

Thank you for this - it is the closest I've come to making this work so far. I can finally assign the faders to CC#1, #11, and #21, BUT as soon as I assign anything else on the Nanokontrol2 in Learn Mode (fader, knob, button, doesn't matter), my CC control on the faders is gone! Do you have any ideas? I've deleted it the Controller Assignments window. Something must be overriding my Korg Kontrol Editor Settings as soon as I use Learn Mode? Thanks in advance for your help!

Hi Catherine, sorry no, never happened to me before. Curiosity: after assigning your buttons and knobs, what do you see in the event list if you move the faders that before assigning something new worked? hope you understand what I mean

@@MartinHeidenreichMusic Thanks Martin! I think I know what you mean? Before I assign anything to the Nanokontrol the event list records midi information in the appropriate CCs (1 and 11 for mod and expression). After I assign something (play, for example), the event list shows no information whatsoever when I move those faders.

Hi Catherine, I disconnected mine and re-did everything from scratch, but couldn't get to your problem. Even cancelling all commands "Play, Stop...." and re-learning them didn't cancel my CC-faders. So sorry, I guess I can't help you with this

Hello! I was trying several times to setup nanokontrol with logic pro x,... it's becoming a nightmare... I really don't know why isn't working!!! I do all You are explaining in the video... if somebody had the same problem and finally discovered why, please tell me! many thanks!

Hi Hando, if you move the faders of your Nano do you see the CC values in the Event List?

one has to do a video to conclude for for you: dont use the automatic feature hahah Thx! Man i bought this nano because FAd0 does nnot getactualized, i cant set Fad9, it is a total frustration! MY first cc. I liked very much how potent it looks. HOwever i settled for the nano control now and got very satisfied with the touch and the fact that it is really nano, having R,M,and S. But miss a bank change and key to 4 directions. It misses a master fader as well. FOr film composers it is great still, i can use it on my piano and still have scores and all the stuff next to it

@@MartinHeidenreichMusic i discoverd the cycle through windows recently, and it helped a lot resuming with one click . And is stupid, caused i knew there was something like this. . I use two screen sets, this button, and full screen, and collapsed view for midi,on stream deck. I have two displays but even i centralize in one and leave the other for plug in or espace. Now i am just tring to figure out how to use banks in this controller, i want it as cc and mixer.

but i want to find out how to use a button to change from cc to mixer. You have both there but not flipping or switching all buttons. You did not use faders as mixer

​@@MartinHeidenreichMusic Ok so i found... a work around. not really a solution but still. When i follow your procedure - the nano kontrol appears in logic as 'microKontrol' and with the functions i assigned as a midi controller. cool. if i unistall it in midi setup within logic and then do a scan and automatic installation it then appears as 'nanoKontrol' and works as a mixing controller. cool. I am opting to keep it as a midi controller for CCvalue functions and i have my ipad with logic remote working at the same time and i write automation for the channels that way. If need be i reinstall it bla bla bla as i said before. but at least there's a work around.

I've done as you've suggested. CC#11 registers fine, however I can't get CC#1 to work. It seems CC#11 is controlling both the dynamic and expression modes in Kontakt. I realize this is not a help channel, but I must be missing something very basic.

Hi Steve, it is difficult for me to understand what might not be working, but it is nearly impossible that one fader sends multiple CC's. What does the event list say if you move the fader? Probably you find the answer there.

@@Iliorr Hi Xabier, maybe just try as Steve Febbraro did. For him it is working now

i don't know what is wrong with mine, i have followed these steps. I have spitfire intimate strings, i want to be able to control the expression and dynamics. Using korg control editor I have cc 11 assigned to fader 1, cc 1 assigned to fader 2. Fader 1 does work, it changes the expression but fader 2 doesn't do anything. All the knobs on the nanokontrol have automatically assigned themselves to expression, dynamics, reverb but i don't want to use the knobs i want to use the faders. I don't understand this it's taken me about 4 hours so far it shouldn't be this difficult.

Difficult to say what might be wrong. Check the Event list if the #CC1 from fader two gets into Logic. If so, then check in the Spitfire Audio PlugIn if #CC1 is assigned to modulation (which it should by default). Hope it helps
