Seize control of your productions with the Icon Platform M+ DAW Controller, adding true tactile control via USB2.0 to your Digital Audio Workstation [DAW] and production system. The all-new Platform M+ is a MIDI control surface designed for producers, engineers and musicians who want the hands on control of a mixing console and the flexibility of modern “in the box” digital music production within a smaller physical workspace. With nine [9] full sized motorized faders, eight [8] rotary dual-function encoder knobs, backlit buttons for Mute, Solo, Automation and Transport control, a jog wheel, and access to your entire mix by banking across tracks in groups of 8 or 1 channel at a time, all the primary functions of your DAW are now at your fingertips. CONTROL YOUR DAW AND PLUGINS The Icon Platform M+ integrates with most popular Digital Audio Workstations. Mapping presets for Cubase, Nuendo, Able ton Live, ProTools, Logic, Reason, Studio One, Bit wig, Amplitude and Reaper are loaded at our factory. Mackie Control or HUI protocols provide seamless interfacing with your DAW’s functions. But even if your preferred DAW is not on this list, you can still map its functions with our intuitive MIDI learn mode. The Icon Platform M+ also offers tactile control of your VST, RTAS, Direct X and AU Plugins so you can dial in EQ frequencies, Q, gain and other effect parameters with the rotary encoder knobs.

Lo he probado con Studio One y Cubase y se integra muy bien. También lo he usado para controlar el Premiere, con la sección de rueda, play etc, aunque para ello bastaría un controlador más pequeño. Todos los botones reponden a lo que indican, excepto el "MIX", que para cada DAW es diferente. A veces al mover un fader vuelve a donde estaba, creo que es por esa función anti toque accidental. Ciertamente es mucho más sencillo si compras la pantalla adicional, así no tienes que estar mirando la pantalla del ordenador todo el rato, ya que según el DAW, la visualización del mezclador del programa no se actualiza; pero creo que eso es problema del DAW y no del iCon. Ocupa en tamaño como mi ordenador portátil (un poco más corto de fondo y más largo de ancho.

Mi dispiace, la prima brutta esperienza con un acquisto da Amazon L’articolo è ottimo (comprato in seguito da un’altro venditore). Quello arrivato da Amazon benché in un pacco integro aveva all’interno la confezione originale aperta ed era mancante di alimentatore. Restituito

Small footprint! Works great!!! Super happy with it! I run Logic Pro X and it’s great for my small studio! I ignored all the old bad reviews, took a chance and am glad I did! The firmware has been updated so some YouTube videos are not relevant.

Got this unit to serve as a physical interface to MainStage 3. As you can see in the video, it works perfectly!

Solid build, nice machine. If you intend to use this in Mackiecontrol mode, you'll be pleased, as it works quite well. Where it fails is when you need feedback when it's in CC mode. Using any DAW that transmits Continuous Control messages for the fader positions will result in unexpected behavior on the unit. To date, I haven't received a solution from Icon despite making an initial connection with them on Facebook. The most notable problem is that the fader will retain it's previous position, ignoring your input. Slide the fader up and it snaps back. In addition, any control change that it's mapped to should re-position the fader, but it doesn't.

So far so good. I’m a logic x user. This works just like a Mackie Control Universal which is what I’ve used for 10+ years. What’s great is that it has the smaller form factor of the avid artist mix/euphonix mc mix. I never liked Eucon as I’m far more comfortable using the mcu protocol because I know it inside and out.I also have a custom built desk with my master midi keyboard built in. So between me and my MCUs is my 88 key midi keyboard and then an apple keyboard, which makes reaching my MCU a bit of a stretch. My desktop can slide over my midi keyboard, but even with that, my mcu v-pots always feel a little out of reach.The size of the platform m is perfect though. I can even reach the v-pot why playing my keyboard. Love the color as well. Faders are solid and not loud at all on playback. Setup is really easy and automatic. You don’t even have to set the midi port in Logic.I’m still waiting for my platform b+ to arrive but then I think I’ll be all set. Going to be nice to have more space in the desk and to get my computer monitors a few inches closer to my eyes.Bravo to everyone at icon. Been waiting for this exact product for years ever since the euphonix mc line came out!

**** Revised Review *** 3 stars to 4 stars.New firmware was issued for the Icon Pro which has vastly improved connection to my DAW (Cubase)Previously I would battle with the unit not being recognised. This is now a non-issue.Hardware continues to work very well. Connection is StableSmall note (as with other controllers) - this unit (like others) creates MIDI data, so be specific with selecting MIDI input channels for MIDI tracks.I still rate customer support as average, but they did fix the main issues I was having.Given a recent question asked about button illumination colour, I have added a picture of this.Pros: Solid build, Motorised faders, Good Control SurfaceCons: Generic Driver frequently disconnects. Firmware Update Utility doesn't work. Slow (possibly no) support.The unit itself is nice to use, and works well. Motorised faders track Volume automation in cubase and it controls things seamlessly. The added-Platform-D display makes it easy to see what is controlling what. This is WHEN it works.The unit uses a Generic USB driver. This seems to be easily conflicted with other devices (and I don't have many things connected to this computer apart from a sound-interface and MIDI keyboard). As a result the unit will stop working, requiring the driver to be uninstalled and reinstalled with monotonous regularity. Often the driver will not reinstall correctly if there are ANY other devices connected (necessitating all USB devices be disconnected) Incredibly frustrating, and rather Mickey-mouse implementation for such a unit.I had hoped that the problem may be fixed by a firmware update, but alas the firmware update facility does not work (despite an aparently functioning installed driver). A support ticket so far has had NO REPLIES, so I wait, with a frustrating semi-usable piece of gear.If the driver was robust, and the unit stayed connected it would be 5* great. As is, the reliability issues are a MAJOR negative, and make it so-so.I remain wondering whether I should have sprung for the Avid product instead. I guess I'll wait and see if the support ticket gets addressed.
