The Korg NanoKontrol Studio is a compact yet highly-advanced MIDI controller designed to provide you with transport keys as well as a mixer section giving you excellent control over your DAW or DJ software and features Bluetooth capabilities, so you can wirelessly connect to your PC/Mac and iOS devices such as an iPhone or iPad. The lightweight, compact MIDI controller allows you to perform and create music seamlessly and is perfect for any music producer or live performer looking for a portable MIDI controller that can be used for a range of various uses.

The NanoKontrol Studio comes with a wide array of professional controls and functions that cover everything from DAW control to DJ performance and is equipped with eight channels that are fitted with sliders that come with generous spacing and stroke as well as eight assignable control knobs and buttons for mute, solo, record, and select so you can easily navigate your way around your DAW. A transport section provides you with controls for stop, play, record, and rewind as well as scene selection, cycle, maker set, and track forward/backward for instant control over your DAW’s transport section while a jog wheel gives you precise control over your track’s navigation.

The compact design of the NanoKontrol is smaller than a sheet of A5 paper and is slim-lined, meaning it will comfortably fit inside of a travel bag or flight case and despite its compact construction the unit is still highly-versatile and perfect for a range of applications. Thanks to the Bluetooth capabilities, this unit can wirelessly connect to your PC/Mac or iOS device or can be connected via a single USB-B connection. When connected to an iOS device, music applications such as Korg Gadget and Apple’s GarageBand can be controlled, and due to the careful tuning, you can enjoy low-latency and a highly-stable connection.
