The main features of the Korg NanoPAD 2 (Black) include:
The Korg NanoPad2 is great product compered to its cost.
Function added to the early version are real improvement.
Ive appreciated Scale and Arp function.
Boundle software is a good gift:
Korg M1 Le has a grat sound (the only drawback is that in my configuration it need an ethernet connection every time you start it).
AAS plugin are fine, i appreciate Strum Acoustic Session and good sound of Lounge Lizard.
Toontrack solo has a very limited nr. of drum element but is a gift and you can always upgrade .
Easy to set up - just plug in and play! Pads are useful but you have to whack them quite hard and I’m not sure how long it will last. However, as a cheap and cheerful way of inputting drums, great value for money!
