Introduction
This nanoPAD2 parameter guide explains the parameters that you can edit on the nanoPAD2 as well as providing basic instructions for usage.
Read this guide when you want to adjust or refine the settings.
Preparations
You’ll use the KORG KONTROL Editor software to edit the nanoPAD2’s parameters.
Please download the latest version of the KORG KONTROL Editor from the KORG website (http://www.korg.co.jp/English/Distributors/ or http://www.korg.com/) and install it.

Gate arpeggiator
When the Touch Scale mode is “off”
The gate arpeggiator will apply to the trigger pads only while you’re touching the X-Y pad.
Velocity
Gate arpeggiator
Gate speed
X-axis: Gate speed
This specifies the interval at which the notes are spaced.
Notes will be sounded at intervals of 1/2 (half-note) on the left edge of the pad, and at intervals of 1/48 (32nd note triplet) on the right edge.
Y-axis: Velocity
This specifies the velocity of the note messages that are transmitted by the gate arpeggiator.
Note messages are transmitted with a velocity of 1 on the bottom edge of the pad, and a velocity of 127 on the top edge.

When the Touch Scale mode is “on”
The gate arpeggiator will apply only to the touch scale function.
The gate arpeggiator does not apply to the trigger pads.
Gate arpeggiator is enabled
Gate time
Note number
Gate arpeggiator
Gate arpeggiator does not apply
X-axis: Note number
Note messages are transmitted according to the scale, key, note range, and octave shift settings that you’ve specified.
Y-axis: Gate time
This specifies the duration of the notes.
Note durations will be shorter at the bottom of the pad, and will lengthen as you move upward on the pad.
At the top edge of the pad, notes will be legato.
