Korg Nano Kontrol with Logic

I've just got one of these controllers and have no idea how to set it up to work with the mixer. I've looked it up on the internet and found somebody saying that you use midi learn. My search of the manual found nothing about this and I can't find it on the menu.
Does anybody have one of these things and can help me set it up? Ideally, a link to a template for logic or something.

macbook pro, Mac OS X (10.4.8)

You have to do this (to control Logic with Korg Nano Control):



0 - Connect your Korg Nano and see if a red light led is on (if you see a red light on the nano means that's it's OK)

1 - Install this from http://www.korguksupport.co.uk/page.cfm?pageID=342&fileID=810 (korg kontrol editor software)

2 - Copy "Apple Logic_Pro_8_Template633686651936670000" (get it from http://www.korg.com/uploads/Download/AppleLogic_Pro_8_Template633686651936670000.zip)

to a new folder ( make a new folder, name it yourself)

3 - Extract all files from Apple Logic_Pro_8_Template633686651936670000 in the folder created (from step 2)

4 - Double Click (to run) the "nanoKONTROL Template Scene Set.nktrl_set" , it will open the korg kontrol editor software with the Logic settings...

5 - In the Korg Kontrol editor (you have the apple in the left, then File, Edit, Communication and Help) open the Communication menu and execute Write

Scene Set - cmd&T and execute also Write Scene data - shift cmd&T (your Korg Nano Kontrol will receive the logic midi implementaion)

6 - Copy this "com.apple.logic.pro.cs" (step 3) to "User/ User name / Library/ Preferences" (This process over writes the file!)

It is very important where you copy "com.apple.logic.pro.cs" (from step 3) because the file may be in different locations... My advice is to overwrite al the

files named as "com.apple.logic.pro.cs" (This process over writes the original Logic file- the one without Korg Nano Kontrol). Make sure you over write all

"com.apple.logic.pro.cs" files from your mac with the one from step 3 !!!! ("com.apple.logic.pro.cs" from "Apple Logic_Pro_8_Template633686651936670000")

7 - Start Logic and open the following menu: Logic Pro -> Preferences -> control surfaces -> controller assignments... -when there is "nanoKONTROL" file in

this folder, it is successfully loaded. (if you don't see "nanoKONTROL" go back to step 6 !!!)



It is not necessary to backup the original Logic "com.apple.logic.pro.cs" !



If u have any others controlers (midi-usb keys, usb pads etc) you have to tell Logic to "learn" after the Nano Kontrol is installed and working OK)



8 - Make sure after step 7 from Logic Pro -> Preferences -> control surfaces -> controller assignments... to set up all MIDI Inputs (right corner) to

"nanoKONTROL SLIDER/KNOB (ALL OF THEM 127)



9 - Make more great Music 🙂
