Comments about Korg nanoKEY2 - Slim-Line USB MIDI Controller (Black):
I use it as a very portable key board/midi controller. I is just what I wanted/needed. It is just right, very responsive. I like the pitch bend buttons better than a wheel.

Comments about Korg nanoKEY2 - Slim-Line USB MIDI Controller (Black):
For data (note) entry, it does what it says it does. Great price. A little too velocity-sensitive, but maybe there is a way to adjust that. (Haven't read the manual, just started using the device right away).
