But don’t let its simple and sleek design fool you. nanoKEY Fold packs in a rich array of features to enhance your creativity and support your playing.

In Complete Control

Despite its ultra-compact format, nanoKEY Fold provides an immersive and versatile playing experience with a combination of powerful and creative features: 

• Silent keybed: The membrane keyboard buttons have been designed to provide a comfortable action, with just the right amount of feel while remaining completely silent, so you can create music anytime, anywhere without disturbing those around you. Velocity can be customized to your feel with 13 different levels.

• Scale Guide: Choose from 15 built-in scales, and let the nanoKEY Fold LEDs guide your playing. “Easy Scale” mode ensures you play the right note with every key press.. Not only that, but by assigning a scale to a touch slider you can easily play within the scale in new and creative ways.

• Chord mode: Chords can be automatically assigned to each key, based on the selected scale and key. Use it on its own or in combination with other modes to unleash your creativity!

• Flexible arpeggiator: The nanoKEY features a powerful built-in arpeggiator with a vast array of arpeggio types and rhythm patterns that can be seamlessly modified using the built-in dedicated controls.

• Two touch sliders for performance and control: The touch sliders that control Pitch and Modulation can be assigned to control specific CC values or directly play notes in the selected scale! Just glide your fingers across them to unleash new depths of musical design and always in the right key and scale. 

• Split function: This versatile function allows you to assign and play different modes for the left and right parts of nanoKEY Fold, allowing you to play your own combinations of chords, scales, and melody, or Control / Program changes.

Seamless Compatibility

With USB-C and TRS-MIDI compatibility, nanoKEY Fold effortlessly connects to your smartphone, tablet, or PC for instant plug-and-play functionality. Plus, its TRS-MIDI output allows you to interface with legacy MIDI-equipped devices like analog synths or drum machines, expanding your creative possibilities even further.
