Thank you! The manual for this Nautilus is like 900pp plus there is a parameter manual of significant length as well! So videos like yours are most supremely appreciated.

I have Nord Yamaha plans and Korg keyboards, but by far I have found the least online support/tutorials for the Korg Nautilus.
Good job on your tutorial. Keep up the good work. 😊

After watching some other videos today about this subject I stumbled across yours and was actually able to follow along somewhat. You did in fact keep it simple to which I am grateful. Will definitely come back if you venture into different aspects of this Nautilus. Thank you. I was almost ready to go back to my DAW this afternoon after being frustrated!

[@katiegodwin4044]

Thank you! It makes me happy that my video was helpful! 😊☺️

[@gargamel314]

Yes, this is the most in depth demo of the sequencer I've seen on all of TH-cam. Great job.

You can set the midi channels of the programs in different tracks to be the same if you want them to play at the same time.

Ppl need these videos, it shows how easy the Nautlilus and other Korgs are to sequence with. It might be that I've been in the korg ecosystem for 30+ yrs, but it's not as difficult as most make it out to believe. I personally need to start using the Sequencer more on my Nautlilus. I get carried away with spreading the parts out over the other boards.

Thank you Katie! The "copy a Combi into the sequencer" thing was driving me nuts. Now I know it's not just me. I never got why Korg made it this way. Thanks again!

[@sudhanva-bhat]

Thank you for this video😊, would love more tips and tricks from Nautilus

[@LIFELOVER715]

You have motivated me to explore & use this feature more. Well-done & keep creating.

This really helped me, thank you for sharing 👍🏻

Thanks very helpful 🎉

Really glad you did this video. I was thinking of buying a Nautilus and wanted to see a real person using it - not a paid gear influencer.

[@ChuckFresh]

Nice video! Still h8 Korg's sequencer. So obtuse but making it work.

[@giovannipignataro2539]

happy owner of the Nautilus since May, I would like to know if there is a cue list function like on the Triton extreme or on the Krome ?

[@TerencePimenta]

Seen some musicians using an external screen with the nautilus. What could it possibly be used for?

[@Hka...]

Have you tried using the audio recorder. Was going to buy the Nautilus though bought the Akai mpc key.61 instead. Think i made the right choice

[@gieroq9134]

Hello, I'm just starting with the Korg company (previously Roland Fantom G and Yamaha Tyros 3,4). Currently, I have the Korg PA5X, which, for me, is intuitive-I managed it without using the manual. I'm considering purchasing the Nautilus. The question is, can you record vocals directly onto audio tracks using a microphone on the Nautilus, then combine it with a MIDI track, save it, and play back the complete recorded song (the whole song)?

[@katiegodwin4044]

Hello😊 I think there is a way to record vocals directly, I’m not sure how though

[@user-js9dt2oy1e]

Dear friend! And can I record in this application from my Korg Nautilus to the iPad and then to the flash drive and how?.. thank you

[@katiegodwin4044]

Hello, you need an adapter chord to connect your iPad to the Korg. Then you need a software on your iPad to convert the Korg music to. I use the free software Audacity, then you can export the music off Audacity onto a flash drive😊
