take my comment about the knobs skipping values with a pinch of salt

at least one guy thinks that they do not:

Because I have seen a Korg X50 directly plugged in from it's USB port
directly into a system be recognizable to ALSA as a midi port and
usable, I am thinking these Korg nanoSeries USB devices may just show
up as well. I thought I saw more on using another external midi
control device and listed one by name in the Rosegarden Companion, but
I can not find it now. It does mention using one, but not by name, in
the handbook. http://www.rosegardenmusic.com/doc/en/studio-external-controllers.html
It mentions on this page to send controller 81 to page through RG's
menus and controller number 82 to change the currently selected track
in the main window. Is it correct that the transport function are of
some standard controller number here(REW/PLAY/FF/LOOP/STOP/REC)? It is
possible to program the Korg nanoController, so If need be I can
change what is being sent from one of them. Has anyone tried any of
these controllers with ALSA or RG? Because the newer Edirol midi
interfaces are not supported yet, I do have some doubt about them just
showing up like the Korg X50 has since they are so new. If somehow
Korg is using a really general implementation they may though. $50
bucks to get one and $150 for all three.

nanoKONTROL SPECIFICATIONS
Controllers
9 knobs
9 sliders
18 buttons
Transport buttons: REW/PLAY/FF/LOOP/STOP/REC
