If the name of the folder is wrongly named it won't work.
reaper_plugin_control_surface_generic_presets

if you edit the file nanokontrol.json it should start with these lines

Code:
{
    "SurfaceName": "nanokontrol",
    "Transport": {
        "Cycle": 49,
        "Forward": 48,
        "Play": 45,
        "Record": 44,
        "Rewind": 47,
        "Stop": 46
    },

I finally was able to get Reaper to recognize the Surface Preset. The mistake I had been making was that I had copied the files nanokontrol.json and nonkontrol2.json out of the folder called reaper_plugin_control_surface_generic_presets into the my computer's Plugins folder.

But what I should have done was copy the whole folder reaper_plugin_control_surface_generic_presets into my computer's Plugins folder.

Thanks so much for talking me through that, STOP.

So I am guessing that things will NOT work properly with Nanokontrol 1.

Shame.... my two and my Nanopad 1 are still working fine after several years work using them.

according to the programmer, it should work with Nanokontrol 1.

Default Error opening MIDI inputs and outputs

Hi there, I'm trying to figure out why I'm getting this. I got it all added per instructions.

Thanks for the work you put in.

Works great!

Has anyone figured out how to control other tracks other than 1-7?

Just found that the new version of this plugin switches banks with the track keys. Install it here

Now, one last thing, how to handle folders . . .

A recent Windows update broke the drivers for my Korg Nanokontrol 2.
I got the Nanokontrol 2 working again by using the korg uninstallation app and removing lots of the midi devices (none Korg midi devices). Upon reboot the Nano-Kontrol was usable again.
As far as I remember the Korg has a pathetic software limitation where inexplicably it has to work on one of the first 9 midi entries (despite other midi items working happily beyond that).
The recent Windows update had moved the korg up the channels which is what happens with some major Windows updates. so you have to be wary if you have multiple midi devices plugged into windows.

All the other midi devices worked correctly immediately. They were unaffected by the Windows updates, and their performance was unaffected buy being switched around.

Use v.08 version of Klinke's MCU plugin for Reaper It will toggle banks of tracks so you can control faders by sections: tracks 1-8, then press the track forward button on the controller to control faders on tracks 9-16 and so on.

Also Folder track control (ignore children)
- edit Klinke's Plugin MCU settings. You need to access Klinke's plugin menu in Reaper. The only way to get to this is with special hardware buttons on the controller that the Kontrol2 doesn't have. But you can emulate this function by using Klinke's imported actions from his plugin file download.

These are custom actions for Reaper to use with his plugin. Import the actions into Reaper. Create a custom action that does both actions at once. Once imported in Reaper you will see these in the actions: 1) Mackie Control Klinke: Vpot Assign Pan/Surround (key) M2) ackie Control Klinke: Alt modifier (button) This will get you into the MCU editor, where you can assign anchor points or jumps that effect how the controller reacts to or ignores folders in Reaper.

This is fantastic, thank you for the information. It works great, following the instructions on the site and then setting control to his custom Mackie mode. Start up the device holding the right two buttons to put it into Mackie mode, and it works great without any further setup, all lights work and it shifts between groups easily.

Thanks for this heads-up!
