With experience, you do again this choice? ...

No, I returned to the store to exchange it with a nanopad2 (~ 15 € more but I regret it)

- What is the particular feature you like best and least?
What I like most is the small square left to play "roll" which n'xiste over the other surface as CONTRL: akai, m-audio + ... and it is little bit to it from anywhere it just use it without problem fixed is the top! In short n'hsitez a minute the nanoPAD is deadly!

The nanoPAD and one of these plug and play product. Dsrception the bote is directly possible to play. In addition it comes with the program srial two handy (and EZdrummer Live). It is also possible to Tlcharger Korg Kontrol Editor on the Korg website that allows you to configure the nanoPAD to your liking. Mobile product or a take-anywhere you want. Rolls and flam functions INTERESTED his trs and provides gaming experience practitioner. Only small BMOL, the arrangement of pads (two line 6) to be distinct from another Controller.

- Have you tried many other models before acqurir?

No. I'm much information on the net.

- How do you report qualitprix?

Trs good. I bought it on a website Nerland I did not know before that http://www.dwmusicstore.com/. Trs good value quality over price and fast delivery. I think I can safely say that c is the controller pad the cheapest in the market and it seems to be reliable trs (simple design). Then the Korg is GUARANTEED to consolidate.

- With the exprience, you do again this choice? ...

Yes no hsit. A good buy trs trs and more affordable.

I use it for 6 months
The pros: small size, 4 programmable patches, surface X / Y
The -: Lack of Ractive pad (touch or slap point of idle ...), dfile scne (CASC would direct t better) version of BMD EZDrummer with a single kit, Live lite fee. Function roll fun but not very useful (we can make it easier apprcierait real bearing on one pad).
We offered it to me so I could not test before
Considering the price I find the mini fair price quality ratio
Attention is not a mpc with the quality of play, for the precision is a short latency trs. The provision is INTERESTED pads along to play drums. I rpart sounds fawn symtrique left / right, can make a turn and bearings on two pads instead of one. Except to play the drums there is less standard pads (12) that the usual 16 less sound available at the same time, therefore, will integrate a hard impact on your drum kit.
In conclusion if it's just to toy and have something that fits in the bag nanoPAD is for you. If you and your drummer you want to play your game the quintessential sound of percu Sampl you are wrong ...

I just buy it.

Good area for flam / roll is a gadget but in some style electro-breakbeat, a faith that makes him master. And then you can use the XY pad for another CONTRL Midi (via download on the publisher's site Korg) as a filter. Having a Novation keyboard with this kind of XY pad (more on the Novation prcis) has me fits.
I bought because my Akai MPD 24 misr of me after 2 years (see my opinion on this device that I loved but which becomes ingrable and pnible). Clearly scnes 4 (and only 12 pads) is not enough to make a real replaceable but this price, nothing wrong. And save space for a studio apartment in Paris is typical indniable.

Hsiter not change through the tool of edition, the curve of VLOC to adapt his game
With my software ftiche of beatmaking FXspansion Guru (and morphing layer by Pad) is essential.
EZdrummer Lite is very nice but even when a plug is stro which is not enough to use on a squenceur. It makes you want to have the version multi-sortie/multi-kit because it jouabilit same top level.
Excellent quality for money, excellent pure travel with my Macbook ... APRS but we'll see what he gives wear.

MODEL if the class is black.
Allre I am not 10 because of lack of scnes. At the same time in the studio, I leave the editor to change the sets if necessary (especially to change the global MIDI channel as there is no way to do it on the machine).

EDIT: Since all the reviews in ngatifs Contents of reliability and lasts in time, I feel like I be the only one) have no problem with the NANOPAD 2 years I use it lugs around everywhere and 2) by having had two big cons msaventures equivalents with products from Akai, the MPD24 cit above and one returned to customer service LPD8 rcent Out of the box (a PAD blocked empchait that any use of thing). May be there been bad in the sries rcentes Korg (people who have a problem are more likely to come advise expditif) and I have no luck with Akai . So yes Akai has more solid in appearance and they are reputable and MPC for them, but we must see beyond the collection's outdoor appearance. The Nano-tips with Korg (I also nanoKONTROL) was so strong that I am not super careful when I carry .. Akai I trusted the firm and aa shit after two years to the MPD.
The LPD 8 c'tait especially for the knobs and more (and more NANOPAD LDP + 8 = 20 pads in my bag back, trs scnario suited me well) and finally the X / Y does not serve me as a I prfre the knobs.

My dboires with Akai LPD 8 as done (back SAV), I must admit that even when the latter is more sensitive to the touch NANOPAD on how difficult it is trs, whatever the curve chosen to achieve the full range of VLOC. When I advise the same for VLOC Curve 3. So I drop the note NANOPAD remains correct in many situations. But if you do not need 12 pads at the same time and X / Y, prfrez the LPD 8 (but do try the store if possible).

I was looking for an area not CHRE CONTRL pads for fun with virtual drums and percussions. The offer was limited to IMMEDIATE NANOPAD.

In the good points:
<ul> Cheap!
Compact, self-powered via USB
The touch area X / Y practice
</ul>

And bad points (keeping in mind that it is a device 50 euros):
<ul> Lack of Ractive: Bond to curve VLOC most "direct" (curve 1) not to jump both feet on the pads
No MIDI (the price paid for a compact format) -> no connection hardware instrument
Ms. APRS Korg driver installation, can not be used with both NANOPAD utility Korg and a virtual instrument, so non-stop juggling to assign notes example </ul>

My conclusion is that for fun or for a CONTRL squenceur for example, is perfectly NANOPAD his office. For the real game, you should take a camera with more sensitive pads.

It comes with the version (trs trs) light of EZ Drummer has a bit to test the machine.

Repeat the choice? Yes, because it does what I need the original, and all fawn in its price range, there is no competition!

-How long have you use it?

Around 6 months.

-Have you tried many other models before buying it?

Just a synth noon on which I played the drums.

-What is so special that you like most and least?

The pros: price, size.
The -: reactivity of pads again, juggling between the Korg Kontrol Editor and virtual intrusion, that it no longer works <img class="smiley" src="/images/audiofanzine/interface/smileys/icon_mrgreen.gif" alt="mrgreen" /> ==> See explanation below.

-How do you price / quality ratio?

At this level I join the opinion of Waxx: I bought it, everything worked niquel.Un day I dropped my laptop so I no longer have use for 2 months I dirais.Une times my pc repaired I reconnect the nano and just a 3 / 4 pads and still not walking all the time! I've never unwelcome, I always carried in its bubble wrap and in the box.
Disgusted I tell myself that I came across the nano kidding (but apparently not:-s).
I have a friend who owned one and as he was not using it I sold it, then, must be seen over time but if it starts there is serious (it is a disposable controller may be <img class="smiley" src="/images/audiofanzine/interface/smileys/icon_biggrin.gif" alt="biggrin" /> ).

-With experience, you do again this choice?

Ben is already done! But if the problem persists then it's going to be big rant to Korg!
Finally I say to those who wish to purchase this product to think because we are already two to have had this problem so it's clearly not a single fault!

I warn that if ever again.

How long have you use it?
9 months

What is the particular feature you like best and least?
It's small, easy to transport, feed through the USB port, trs simple set

Have you tried many other models before acqurir?
Not

How do you report qualitprix?
I did not serve for 2-3 months now and I spring branch for use with live, and I dchante!!
Of the 12 pads there are only 7 functioning, I've never suddenly he did not fall so I disassemble to identify the problem and to observe the same operating principle. It consists of a small electronic circuit that is under the buttons (scene, hold, flame, roll), the surface XY, and a series of 12 sensors noys in plastic film.
And this plastic film that I have a problem, because inside of it you can see an electronic circuit which has a conductive pad to contact when pressing the pad (a little mani re buttons a joystick if you disassemble a dj), and that the flexibility of plastic that ensures the return to starting position, bending the film lgrement I get everything working again plastic pads, but I must also close the case while keeping the plastic curve for simple, big galre! At the moment it did not apply myself I rpar heartedly. I'm fairly due. Ms. controller for 45 euro, I believe that the life of the product must be greater than 9 months.

Exprience with, you will do again this choice?
For now I'm looking on the net, expriences of similar others, may be I'm falling on the wrong product.
Is what I would do the same choice, but may be much hsitation.
