This review is from: Korg nanoKEY 25 Key USB Controller Keyboard, BlackLike probably most computer composers, I've lived with the tradeoffs of trying to have a computer keyboard and a midi keyboard handy when basically they are designed to be in the exact same position relative to my hands. While I won't be writing masterpieces with this little guy, the size puts it right where I want it for putting in a few notes or chords while keeping my desktop organized for regular non-musical work. Just having it there is like finally getting to scratch an itch I've had for years. The build quality is very good--for what it is...a tiny handy two octave musical data entry tool. Also, it looks very cool....
This review is from: Korg nanoKEY 25 Key USB Controller Keyboard, BlackGreat little keyboard. Excellent for traveling! However, when I received it, one of the keys didn't work, so I had to get a replacement. The keys do feel a bit on the cheaper side of things, a little bit wobbly, plastic, springy-feel. But it works fine. The velocity is fine too. Works much better than using your keyboard pad if you're a Logic user (which doesn't have velocity sensitivity)....
This review is from: Korg nanoKEY 25 Key USB Controller Keyboard, BlackI'll keep this short and sweet. I find myself doing a lot of laptop production on the go (can't really concentrate at home), and really *needed* a portable keyboard to see the keys and play chords on. I thought the Korg would be perfect. Owned it for about a month, used it maybe 4 or 5 times, and one day I opened up my bag to see a couple keys off and the paper-clip/model airplane latch to have fallen off the keyboard. I don't ever recall dropping my laptop bag -- I had a cheap mouse and pair of sunglasses in the bag that looked completely unscathed. Tried putting the keyboard back together, but no luck.Korg -- if you advertise a unit as portable (which this small keyboard surely is), please make it hold up to at least a minimal amount of abuse. I'm not asking for it to be bulletproof, and I'm sure if I had a hard case the unit would still be fine.Would've given this 2 stars for at least a bit of utility, but thinking of my wasted $50 isn't making me feel any better. I'll be picking up the new Akai portable keyboard, scheduled to be released 3Q 2009....
