The microKEY is slim, lightweight, USB powered and
compatible with all of your computer music software; use it to create
your own compact and customized command center.
Natural Touch mini keyboard
The microKEY features 37 velocity-sensing mini keys, using the same
Natural Touch keybed found on the Korg microKORG XL and microSTATION.
This keybed has been designed with careful attention to the touch and
feel. The proportions of the black keys and white "waterfall" keys have
been adjusted for optimal playability, and the key touch makes it easy
to play chords, glissandos, and rapid-fire phrases. The microKEY
accurately conveys the dynamics of your performance to any software
plug in.
Extended Range and Expression
The Octave Shift buttons extend the range of the microKEY by four
octaves in either direction – up or down. The Key Transpose allows you
to play in any key instantly. Used together, these two features provide
access to the entire MIDI note range. For adding tasty expression to
your performance, the microKEY is also equipped with both a Pitch Bend
wheel and a Modulation wheel.
USB versatility
Your new microKEY serves double-duty as a USB hub. The two USB ports
(Type A) allow you to expand your custom control center by adding on a
Korg nanoPAD or nanoKONTROL – or any other USB device!
Free Editing Software
Download the free "KORG KONTROL Editor" and customize the microKEY for
your production or performance system. Using the editor software, you
can set the keyboard to respond to one of eight distinct velocity
curves, or set a fixed velocity value. In addition, the range of the
modulation wheel can be customized by setting minimum and maximum
control change values.KORG KONTROL Editor can be downloaded from the
Support section of the Korg website.
