Pros & Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

Each slider has a default cc# so i just have the sampler plugin learn each slider's cc#. Easy to integrate with pro tools daw; uses hui8 protocol so works great.

Reviewer is a novice but a pretty good typist. The trackpad is smooth and responsive.

Cons

The nanopad 2 has much more consistent sensitivity/velocity across all 12 pads. The pads are smaller, harder rubber (feels like plastic) the touch response of the pads is inconsistent and clunky at best.

The sensitivity is very inconsistent. The sliders work intermittently, as do the pan pots. Save yourself the hassle of returning it and buy a better piece of equipment.

The mapping plugin doesn't work with logic 10. The only way to get them back is to uninstall the controller and reinstall the plugin. I suppose one could manually map each function although i'm not sure it would stick.

Price

Even with the cost of the nanokontrol 75 i still saved 75 and have a useful controller

This is a very nice midi controller for the price

For the money this controller is hard to beat

I really wish there were backlights behind the pads but i guess if i wanted something like that i shouldve forked out a little more money

Packaging/appearance

I bought it primarily for the software bundle coupon included in the package

Competitiveness

The nautilus lacks the sliders of its predecessor kronos workstation and this controller helps make up for that with its 8 slid... Read More

Some docs say the coupon comes with nanokey2 or nanopad2 which are even cheaper but i had no need for those and i couldnt confi... Read More
