Review: Great supplement to mouse interface - I don't write reviews very often, but I thought I'd write a review on this unit to help those considering this purchase. First of all, there are more powerful and complete control surfaces for DAW software, which is what I'm using to unit for. These more complete units are in the $600-$1000 range, so you should expect more from them. The Korg unit does not have motorized faders, and it doesn't control bus volumes. What it does is give you tactile control over eight channels that are bank switchable, all basic channel and transport controls and a very nice jog wheel. I am using it with Sonar Platinum, and the set up was very easy with presets for Sonar and other DAW software. This unit is replacing a Tascam FW-1082, which I liked very much. The Korg nanoKontrol Studio is much simpler, and if you look at it as a supplement to the mouse/keyboard interface, well worth the money.
Review: Not supported on BIG SUR but there's a work arround. Better to use directly true USB. - I hope musicians read this article before buying this device. This device is not supported on Big Sur. Nobody who's writting reviews know this because it's was not on the korg site till recently. They are working on updates even for Monterey version so it's going to take some patience before we can use it. Wait and check the site before buying. The device itself works ok. You can use it any how but have to go and set it up as generic remote controller in your studiosetup in Cubase 11 pro. After that you have to use the learn function and go true each midi program number to see and set it up. It's easy but it takes some time to get it running but it's worth it. there's no latency in the faders or knobs so if you have this issue there's something going wrong. For people who bought this to use with logig X and Garageband they have made a driver for this. You just have to search the site a little bit. If you mess up use these function to factory reset: Press <,stop and scene buttons when turning on to usb. You have to wait at least a couple of minutes and don't turn the device off. You can reset with scene and cycle botton to when turning on. It's like a lite reset. when the buttons your holding flashes let them go. There's a driver that works for the nanokontrolstudio I don't know were I got it today 3 Nov 2021. It's called advKorgUSBMIDIDriver.plugin. with this plugin the Korg nanokontrolstudio works perfectly. when your done and the Mac 2018 see it you must hold down scene and marker buttons at start up and the Korg goes in cubase mode. In studio setup choose the Mackie control in the top of the same screen choose nanokontrolstudio control both midi in and out press ok and your done. Mine works now without any problems all function work only the individual rec arm button does not work but I think I can set it in the Korg editor what I have not used because it doesn't communicate with the device. Hope this will help a lot. 10-11-2021 I have reset correctly now and all funcions work perfectly. I'm using it with Cubase pro 11 and have no problems. To put it in Cubase mode hold the scene and <marker button it lights all scene buttoms up. Let it go and be sure in the studiosetup the midi in and out is set to your nanokontrole and your set to mackie control and that's it. There is a driver for Garageband and one for Logic X so it should work now in those DAW to. Go to Korgswebsite to download them.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Will it function wirelessly (especially the transport) without any additional software installs?**
A: Hi, yes it works without any additional installation of any software. You will need to pair it when you turn it on, and depending on what else you have paired already may require you do it each time. If you can use it with a device that you don't already have Bluetooth pairing on that would be best. Please let us know if you have any other questions. Thank you

**Q: Can these be daisy chained together in the daw to allow for control of additional channels in increasing groups of eight? like 2 for 16 channels etc**
A: There is the concept of BANKS - there are 5 banks (scenes) so you can assign each of the 8  rows of controls to different things in each bank. So in your example you could control 5 groups of 8 channels each for a total of up to 40 channels.  You just have to click a button to select which bank you want to use.

**Q: Will this support reaper on a windows 10 pc?**
A: Yes  I havec the nanoKontrol Studio and I use it with Reaper 5 and now Reaper 6, my DAW of choice. If you run into issues, look at this page as sometimes a KORG product will appear not to work but that is because it must be assigned by Windows as a midi port between 0 and 9.

**Q: does it come with a ableton live lite code? wich softwares are included in the bundle?**
A: It includes Ableton Live (not lite) but not free it's a $50 discount, but despise that the free software package is amazing.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best low cost mixer for DAW
*by P***R on June 28, 2016*

This is a great little mixer for the price. I've been using it on Logic Pro X, and it works flawlessly. All functions work as they should. If you use it via USB, it's practically plug and play. If you use it via bluetooth, you have to assign it to Logic each time you start, which is a little cumbersom. Also note, the faders are not motorized, so the use of automation on your DAW is a little limited. But I set Logic to 'latch' and it works fine. Considering that the cheapest mixer with motorized faders costs $600, I'm okay with making due. The job wheel is a great feature, especially considering the cost. And the transport buttons are also very nice to have. Add to that dedicated mute, solo and record buttons, and pan knob, and this has most of what you need for general mixing. Much better than using a mouse. I use mine for mixing 6 to 8 tracks for a podcast, and it's been a perfect, low cost solution.
