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. Review: Perfect - 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! Review: Take a chance! I’m glad I did!!!! - 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. ## Features - 8+1 touch-sensitive motorized faders with 10-bit resolution - 8 dual-function encoder knobs (rotate and enter) - Class-compliant with macOS Big Sur (M1 and Intel Compatible), Windows 10, and Windows 8/7 (32 & 64-bit) - Mackie control built-in for Cubase, Nuendo, Amplitude, Logic Pro, Able ton Live, Reaper, Reason, Studio One and Bit wig - Platform D2 optional LCD display available separately - Includes free recording software, such as Harrison 32C Vocal Intensity Processor, a "greatest hits" collection of features from Harrison's analog console heritage, Harrison AVA plugins and Mixbus32C workstation; Tracktion DAW Essentials, a collection of 16 contemporary FX plugins for use with any DAW; Dotec Audio plugins for streaming, podcasting, recording and mixing; and Bitwig Studio 8-Track, the trim and effective digital audio workstation to start producing, performing, and designing sounds like a pro, all available via download upon purchase and registration - 1-year warranty (18-month with registration) valid if purchased from authorized US dealers ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B071XHN18K | | Additional Features | Backlit | | Best Sellers Rank | #183,033 in Musical Instruments ( See Top 100 in Musical Instruments ) #111 in Digital Audio Workstation Controllers | | Brand | iCON | | Brand Name | iCON | | Compatible Devices | Cubase, Nuendo, Samplitude, Logic Pro, Reaper, Bitwig, Studio One, Ableton Live, Sonar, Audition, Windows XP, Vista (32-bit), 7/8/10 (32- and 64-bit), and Mac OS X (Intel Mac) | | Connectivity Technology | USB | | Connector Type | USB | | Control Method | Touch | | Control Type | channel levels, panning positions, and other mixing decisions | | Customer Reviews | 4.1 out of 5 stars 82 Reviews | | Global Trade Identification Number | 04897022374334 | | Hardware Interface | USB 2.0 | | Hardware Platform | x86-64 | | Human Interface Input | Dial | | Included Components | Power Adapter, User Manual, Warranty Card | | Instrument | digital audio workstation | | Instrument Key | Any | | Item Type Name | Icon Pro Audio Platform M+ MIDI control surface with motorized faders for Cubase, Logic, ProTools, Reason, Studio One, Ableton Live and more | | Manufacturer | Icon | | Manufacturer Part Number | ICOC-PLATFORMM+ | | Material Type | Metal | | Mixer Channel Quantity | 2 | | Model Name | Platform M+ | | Model Number | ICOC-PLATFORMM+ | | Model Year | 2021 | | Noise Control | None | | Number of Keys | 8 | | Outer Material | Metal | | Platform | Windows 10 | | Product Style | Platform M+ | | Size | Platform M+ Main Unit | | Special Feature | Backlit | | Supported Software | Ableton Live | | Warranty Description | 1. | ## Product Details - **Brand:** iCON - **Connectivity Technology:** USB - **Model Name:** Platform M+ - **Number of Keys:** 8 - **Special Feature:** Backlit ## Images ![Icon Pro Audio, ICOC-PLATFORMMM+, Icon Pro Audio Platform M+ MIDI control surface - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/515PNnjeysL.jpg) ![Icon Pro Audio, ICOC-PLATFORMMM+, Icon Pro Audio Platform M+ MIDI control surface - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51ojwt6jCkL.jpg) ![Icon Pro Audio, ICOC-PLATFORMMM+, Icon Pro Audio Platform M+ MIDI control surface - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/416VUPk8poL.jpg) ![Icon Pro Audio, ICOC-PLATFORMMM+, Icon Pro Audio Platform M+ MIDI control surface - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/515W0uxowaL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Style** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: Hi, i mostly use logic pro x and pro tools. can i use this to assign faders to midi cc such as cc# 11 expression in order to write in automation?** A: I use it with logic and it’s easy to assign to whatever CC# you want. I use it to control spitfire plug ins - modulation / expression automation **Q: Hi, Does it come with the screen included?** A: The LCD Display _is_ the screen for the Icon Platform M+ MIDI control surface. The Icon Platform M+ MIDI control surface does not include the LCD display. Purchase the Icon D2 LCD Display separately to get the screen. I recommend getting the LCD display. **Q: Are the usb connection problematic for windows 10 users? the guys who had problem, have you checked if your pc’s selective usb connectivity is off?** A: I have used it without any problems on a Windows 10 PC with Cubase. **Q: Is this compatible with pro tools and how extenders can I connect to M+? Thank you!** A: Yes the Icon Platform M+ is compatible with Pro Tools. You can add up to 3 extenders for a total of 32 channels. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Perfect *by M***R on October 13, 2018* So far so good. I’m a logic x user.

The firmware has been updated so some YouTube videos are not relevant. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Customer Support Not Great; Driver Issues cause intermittent function / disconnections *by H***N on September 23, 2017* **** 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 Stable Small 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 Surface Cons: 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. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/45212527-icon-pro-audio-icoc-platformmm-icon-pro-audio-platform-m](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/45212527-icon-pro-audio-icoc-platformmm-icon-pro-audio-platform-m) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-05-16*
