The nanoKEY Studio from Korg is a lightweight and portable mini-keyboard controller with twenty-five keys, knobs, trigger pads, and a touch pad that allow instant realization of ideas into sound. Battery operated or USB bus powered, the controller can connect wirelessly to an iPhone or iPad, or additionally via USB to a Mac or Windows computer.

The velocity-sensitive keys allow for easy step-recording and the Scale Guide function illuminates the keys to show recommended notes in the scale, making it even easier to play. An Easy Scale function generates musical phrases using any of the keys. The eight velocity-sensitive trigger pads can convey every dynamic nuance of a drum performance. In chord-playing mode, the Chord Scale function automatically assigns the best chords for the key and scale selected. The pads can also be assigned to trigger audio clips.

Single finger control of synthesizers or plug-in effects is available using the built-in KAOSS-inspired touch pad. The controller also features an arpeggiator with rhythm patterns for generating a succession of new phrases simply by touching the pad. Similarly, eight knobs provide control of software synthesizers, plug-in effects, or a DAW mixer. A comprehensive selection of music software is available for all supported platforms.

Q: 5. I'm looking for a way to pipe the signal coming out of the Moto M2 into a streaming setup that accepts hdmi input. Any suggestions?

If you are referencing a streaming switcher, you would just plug this interface into the same computer that you are using to stream and designate the interface as your audio input source from your System Preferences or Settings on your computer.

A: NO. MOTU products are not yet qualified for use with the new M1-powered Macs. The M2 and M4 bus-powered USB audio interfaces are compatible with macOS Big Sur as USB audio class compliant devices, allowing plug-and-play operation with no driver installation needed. A driver will soon be available that provides lower latency performance, loopback channels and Core Audio volume control under macOS Big Sur.

You can go to your Settings----Sound menu in your computer while the interface is turned on, to make sure the Irig Pro Duo is selected as the audio input/output source for your computer. No one to my knowledge has yet confirmed compatibility with Linux and IK Multimedia has not confirmed compatibility with Linux.
