the SET MARKER and marker left/marker right buttons all work, too. You’ll also notice the transport controls (RECORD, PLAY, STOP, REWIND, FF) all work in Reaper as well, and of course. Now, once you’ve exited Preferences, you’ll see that the nanoKONTROL2’s buttons respond perfectly in Reaper… all mute/solo/arm record buttons work for every track, the faders work for the track volumes, and the knobs work for the track panning.

Then choose your MIDI input and output to be “nanoKONTROL2”. Click ADD and Reaper will ask you what kind of Control Surface Mode…. Start Reaper of course… and then go to Reaper’s PREFERENCES (CTRL-P), go into Control Surfaces (left menu, near the bottom).Ģ. Although that template is designed for Cakewalk Sonar, it works perfectly for Reaper, if you set Reaper correctly:ġ. You’ll notice the record button blinks a few times after it’s connected, to let you know you’re in Sonar mode. This will load the template for Cakewalk Sonar. I saw that the nanoKONTROL 2 manual had templates for various well-known DAWs (Cubase, Live, Digital Performer, Pro Tools, Logic/Garageband, and Sonar…) but of course, not one for Reaper.Īll you have to do before connecting the nanoKONTROL 2 to your computer is hold down the SET MARKER button along with the main RECORD button, and then plug in your USB cable. Just picked up a Korg nanoKONTORL2 for portable transport and track control (mouseless) when I’m recording on the go with my lappy.
