My korg nanokontrol was working just fine but now for some reason when I try to map it in ableton nothing happens but the midi in indicator flashes when I do stuff. Also on projects where I already mapped things it doesn't work. The midi in indicator says it is responding but it isn't... any ideas? thanks

My friend had this same problem. Try enabling the 'remote' button in Live's MIDI preferences for the nanokontrol. Hope this helps!

Hi, I have the LPK25 and LPD8, but I think the Korg is similar to set up. What I experience is that the pads always work fine when I change sets, but the knobs have to be operated initially to get "picked up", then they're fine until I change sets.

Is it possible you are on the wrong program in the controller?

yeah i had to enable the remote button. Thanks!
