Nanopad Problems on Win7

Post by unusualist »

Hello everyone!
I just got my nanoPAD today and I installed everything(driver software and Kontrol editor) that it needed. But when I hit the pads, I hear no voice. Kontrol Editor responds to Nanopad and I'm able to make changes on it, but I can't hear any voice. I also have ableton live 8 and I can't set it up because I don't know how to do it.

It would be great if you guys helped me.

I didn't quite get this... Please be a bit more specific.

In Kontrol Editor when you hit a pad you can't hear any sound? Is that it?

If so, the nanopad isn't a drum machine. It's a midi usb controller. It
does not store/produce sounds without software.

Download this http://www.korg.com/services/downloads/ ... te_WIN.exe

Use the serial provided with the nanopad to register EZDrummer.

I downloaded that program but I still don't know what to do because after I install the program i can't find a desktop icon or anything. So I install Toontrack Solo and it says: `could not load audio driver`

One more question: would ableton live work with this?

Connect the nanopad to your pc.

- Open EZDrummer

- Hit the pads, and you should hear kicks, snares etc...

The nanopad with the factory settings should be able to do this out of the box.

NOTE: Always connect the nanopad on the same usb port, the one you
used when you installed the driver.

Yes, the nanopad works on ableton live. Korg has a template for that here:

I think it's best you google a bit and try to get aquainted with midi and midi mappings
