How can you use multiple nanoKONTROL2 units? I recall seeing this discussed, but in trying to get it set up I keep hitting road blocks. I thought you would/could/should put them on separate MIDI channels using the KORG editor, so I did that, but when trying to select them in the Inputs/Outputs tab even after adjust the MIDI channels there the system keeps selecting what seems to be either one or the other.
Is this still possible?
Multiple nanKONTROL2 units?

There's nothing special to do about MIDI channel - just connect them to a USB hub, and assign each to its own universe as input device.
But yes the order of the devices can get scrambled across reboots, so you'll have to reassign them or reorder the physical units on your table...

Unfortunately, MIDI devices don't have a "unique ID" (eg. a serial number that I can retrieve)
Therefore there's no technical way to understand the order.
I imagine this is a common problem for other softwares too. Unless some of you know if they found a solution?

Thank you for the explanation. It would just be more difficult for it to be operator friend at the location I am working with if every time they open the program they have to go in and go back and forth until they line up properly.
I suppose this is the same reason that the Feedback is not able to be sent to just one of the units (i.e. send feedback to the unit that triggered the event)? It is odd when I select Feedback for either one, both buttons are selected or deselected at the same time, but only one responds with lights when the action is taken.
