    Hello, have you ever tried those devices: Akai LPD8/Korg NanoPad 2. I want to buy some pads from programming drums and I'm looking at those two. If you have any experience with those, I'd be happy to read them

    Thanks in advance
    Take care!

    I use the nanopad 1. It's a reliable piece of gear, even though it's cheap. But only it's pads are useful.

    Even so, that's fine. Be aware though that there are only 8 pads you can use at a time, even though you have scene switching. That may be an issue with some people, but not me, since I don't usually use more than 8 percussive elements in a track anyways. Even if you do, you wouldn't be able to program them all in at once, so 8 pads is perfect, then I switch scenes for more drums I have chosen in my vsti, or I use another instance of the drum vsti I am using, and don't bother with scenes.

    I recommend it if you're just looking for pads to use.
