About the Korg microKEY2 – 37 – Key iOS-Powerable USB MIDI Controller with Pedal Input
Control that’s conveniently simplified
With all of the
endless options, configurations and choices that modern technology
offers musicians today, in the end, the simplest solution is often the
best solution. An uncomplicated, straightforward design, compact size
and easy connectivity made the first-generation microKEY series a
bestseller. Korg’s second-generation microKEY lineup retains those
attributes and adds iPad and iPhone support, plus a damper pedal jack
for improved playability. They have also added a 49-key model, for the
player who needs a few more keys in a still-compact format.
In
all, the microKEY series has evolved to become even more convenient and
versatile, making it an ideal choice for first-time and more established
players alike. Whether you’re producing in the studio or creating on
the go, the microKEY will give you exactly what you need – and nothing
you don’t.
Compact and playable Natural Touch Mini Keyboard
KORG’s Natural Touch mini keyboard. Has been carefully designed to
assure playability while staying compact and makes it easy to play
chords or rapid phrases. Choose between a 25, 37, 49 or 61-key
configuration to suit your specific playing style and space/travel
requirements.
Connect with a single USB cable – supports Mac, Win, iPad and iPhone
Since the microKEY is USB bus-powered, you only need a single USB cable
to connect it to Mac or Windows. There’s no need to install a driver;
just connect it to your computer and start playing. The second
generation newly supports connection to iPad and iPhone. Add an Apple
Lightning – USB camera adaptor and one USB cable and your setup is
complete, allowing you to access apps such as KORG Gadget, KORG Module
and GarageBand. (For connection to the iPad/iPhone, use the Apple
Lightning – USB camera adapter)

The 37, 49 and 61-key models provide an assignable switch jack for
connecting a damper pedal. The 25-key model provides a sustain button
that implements the damper function. On all models, you can use the
octave buttons in conjunction with the key transpose function to play
MIDI’s entire range of notes. The 37, 49 and 61-key models provide pitch
bend and modulation wheels. The 25-key model provides a joystick that
can also control pitch bend and modulation, as well as an arpeggiator
function, giving you full control in spite of this model’s space-saving
dimensions and providing a wealth of performance expression.
