Using the Korg nanoKontrol 2 Part 01

In this tutorial by Dave Bode we will look at how to setup and use the Korg nanoKontrol 2 as a general controller in Reaper, but these ideas will work with almost any modern DAW.

    I had a bit of trouble configuring my NanoKontrol to work with Reaper. But got there in the end after watching 2 or 3 vids incl this one - which was some help, but not a lot. I managed to find and install all the relevant drivers, and crap incl the KLINKE files. Reaper wasn't recognizing the controller! Then I watched a bit of Tim Shoebridge's video and he mentioned that there is an issue with the KORG MIDI DRIVER software - which I think I heard before - probably here! - about how it maxes out at 10 midi drivers - the trick was to uninstall the driver, and then look at the options and delete all the unwanted drivers - I had heaps of double ups. In the end that fixed the prob in 10 minutes - after half a day stuffing around. Anyway I thought I'd add this little nugget! As there are only 8 channel strips - if you go beyond that number - press the TRACK arrows and it jumps so that channel 9 is controlled by strip 1, chan 10 by strip 2 etc. I thought that was cool. Anyway I am glad I got this thing working. for almost $100AUD I think it's worthwhile having some dedicated controls and not have to use the mouse all the time. CHEERS

    oh wow, I completely missed the automation thing ! Amazing ! I recently watched a video that because of the mackie controller problem, the set marker, instead of using the nanokontrol2 as control interface creates a midi mapping for the actions instead, which seems to work as well.

I edited the cc numbers of each faders and wrote the settings to the thing but Reaper won't do anything. It does list NK2 as one of the MIDI controlers but it won't receive any MIDI messages from it.

    Hey you seem to know what you are doing! Question: Do I need to install the driver in order to use it with Pro Tools? The install fails on my M1 MacBook Pro. The nanoKONTROL2 documentation says, "This driver is for Intel Mac (32-bit and 64-bit) only." Pro Tools is certainly not seeing it in the Peripherals / MIDI Controllers window.It is a pity because it is perfect for my needs and, as you say, it is a well built little device.

    Hey man, i recently got the nanokontrol 2 and i use it with logic. the Site says that you only have to download a plug in thing so that it works with Logic.. but my problem is that all the faders and pans work they all respond along with the transport but when it comes to strip 6 and 8 they have a tendency to mimic each other.. Ie what ever i do with one fader the other will do ( in the DAW of course ) then when i select a track header to work on and move 8 or 6 or both .. the selected track will move to.. i dont know what it is but it is seriously annoying me.. what do you reckon i do?
