KORG nanoKONTROL2 - "Kustom Remote" for Cubase (MIDI Remote Script)

Hi everyone,

I wanted to share my Cubase MIDI Remote script for the Korg nanoKONTROL2. I needed something purely to control recording, to keep an instrument in my hands, and off the mouse/screen. Everything is fixed and predictable so you don’t have to think while performing.

After using this pretty much every day, I figured it might be useful to others.

Basically it’s got channels 1-7 fixed to control your first 7 tracks. Handy for setting up your cue mix from across the room. I’ve reserved channel 8 for a special “Kustom Channel” to control your metronome, zoom, and selected track mute/solo.

I’ve included some animated GIF demos below showing how it works.

:hot_beverage: Optional Support

If you find it useful and want to support future scripts:

Totally optional — just happy if people get some use out of it. (Any coffee funds would help me get some more controllers to work on coding!!)

I’d love to hear any ideas for features, etc.

Cheers,

Paul
