Morning Dan -
The Nanokontrol doesn't really lend itself to selecting cues in QuickShow (or Beyond, for that matter).
Cues are selected using MIDI note messages, the same that type of MIDI messages you would get when using keys or pads on a similarly-equipped MIDI controller.
So, while the Nanokontrol is probably great for controlling other aspects of QuickShow, it's not going to be very good for selecting cues -
you're probably much better off adding another controller to use to select cues.
While I have never personally used it, you could probably add something like the NanoPad, and use the pad controls to trigger the cues, while using the Nanokontrol to control other aspects of Quickshow.
OR -
You might think about getting a bigger programmable controller that has plenty of knobs, faders, and pads to control everything.
If you have an iPad, there are also several options for turning an iPad into a custom MIDI controller.
