About Korg microKEY2
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)
Connect a pedal and enjoy full control functionality
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.
