Anyone who&#39;s recorded with a console will know that a mouse and keyboard just doesn&#39;t have the same feel as working with a mixer &#8211; Icon&#39;s controllers bridge that gap, combining the simplicty of software with the hands-on control of hardware.<\/span>\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\t<span style=\"font-size:14px;\">Reviewer Jon Musgrave was clearly impressed with the build quality for a control surface at this pricepoint, saying that &quot;The build quality is excellent&#8230; &#8230;Overall a compact and robust DAW controller.&quot; <\/span>\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\t&nbsp;\n<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\">\n\t&quot;The build quality is excellent&#8230;<br \/>\n\t&#8230;Overall a compact and robust DAW controller.&quot;<br \/>\n<\/h3>\n<p>\n\t&nbsp;\n<\/p>\n<h4>\n\tIcon Controllers &#8211; Take Control Of Your DAW<br \/>\n<\/h4>\n<p>\n\t<span style=\"font-size:14px;\">The Platform M+ is part of Icon latest generation of controllers, and is a low-cost alternative to the larger <a href=\"https:\/\/www.synthax.co.uk\/icon\/controllers\/icon-qcon-pro-x\/\" title=\"Icon QCon Pro X at Synthax.co.uk\">Icon QCon Pro X<\/a>. The Platform M+ can also be expanded with further banks of 8 faders with the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.synthax.co.uk\/icon\/controllers\/icon-platform-x-plus\/\" title=\"Icon Platform X+ at Synthax.co.uk\">Platform X+ extenders<\/a>, for a total of up to 32 motorised faders. <\/span>\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\t<span style=\"font-size:14px;\">Icon also recently announced at (NAMM 2018) the Platform B+, a further add-on for the Platform Series, with 50 illuminated buttons providing shortcut keys for speeding up your workflow when you&#39;re working with your favourite DAW. A set of silicon shortcut overlays are also included for many of the most popular DAWs, including Cubase \/ Nuendo, LogicPro, Samplitude, Reaper, Studio One, Bitwig, Reason, ProTools, Sonar, Audition, Ableton Live, Digital Performer and FL Studio. There&#39;s also a &#39;User define&#39; mode, so you can customise the Platform B+ to give you quick access to all of the most used functions, when you&#39;re creating and editing your music.<\/span>\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\t&nbsp;\n<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\n\t<span style=\"font-size:14px;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.synthax.co.uk\/latest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/SoundPro-2017-Icon-Platform-M-D2-Display-Synthax-Audio-UK-e1517847667725.jpg\" data-rel=\"lightbox-image-0\" data-rl_title=\"\" data-rl_caption=\"\" title=\"\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"Icon Platform M+ &amp; D2 Display - Synthax Audio UK\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-9097\" height=\"231\" src=\"https:\/\/www.synthax.co.uk\/latest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/SoundPro-2017-Icon-Platform-M-D2-Display-Synthax-Audio-UK-e1517847667725.jpg\" width=\"499\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.synthax.co.uk\/latest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/SoundPro-2017-Icon-Platform-M-D2-Display-Synthax-Audio-UK-e1517847667725.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.synthax.co.uk\/latest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/SoundPro-2017-Icon-Platform-M-D2-Display-Synthax-Audio-UK-e1517847667725-300x138.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.synthax.co.uk\/latest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/SoundPro-2017-Icon-Platform-M-D2-Display-Synthax-Audio-UK-e1517847667725-150x69.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.synthax.co.uk\/latest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/SoundPro-2017-Icon-Platform-M-D2-Display-Synthax-Audio-UK-e1517847667725-500x230.jpg 500w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 499px) 100vw, 499px\" \/><\/a><em>The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.synthax.co.uk\/icon\/controllers\/icon-platform-m-plus-daw-controller\/\" title=\"Icon Platform M+ at Synthax.co.uk\">Icon Platform M+<\/a> with optional <a href=\"https:\/\/www.synthax.co.uk\/icon\/controllers\/icon-platform-d2\/\" title=\"Icon D2 Display at Synthax.co.uk\">D2 Display<\/a> attachment.<\/em><\/span>\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\t&nbsp;\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\t<span style=\"font-size:14px;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.musicradar.com\/reviews\/icon-platform-m\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"www.musicradar.com\/reviews\/icon-platform-m\">Read the full review at Music Radar<\/a><\/span>\n<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">\n\t<span style=\"font-size:14px;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.synthax.co.uk\/icon\/controllers\/\" title=\"Icon Controllers at Synthax.co.uk\">Find out more about Icon DAW Controllers<\/a><\/span>\n<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">\n\t<br \/>\n\t<span style=\"font-size:14px;\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"Icon Pro Audio Logo - Synthax Audio UK\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-6333\" height=\"50\" sizes=\"(max-width: 149px) 100vw, 149px\" src=\"https:\/\/www.synthax.co.uk\/latest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/New-logo-Icon-Pro-Audio-2017.jpg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.synthax.co.uk\/latest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/New-logo-Icon-Pro-Audio-2017.jpg 1772w, https:\/\/www.synthax.co.uk\/latest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/New-logo-Icon-Pro-Audio-2017-300x100.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.synthax.co.uk\/latest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/New-logo-Icon-Pro-Audio-2017-768x255.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.synthax.co.uk\/latest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/New-logo-Icon-Pro-Audio-2017-1024x340.jpg 1024w\" style=\"\" title=\"\" width=\"149\" \/>If you&#39;d like to know more about Icon&#39;s DAW Controllers, give us a call on <a style=\"color:#00569A\">01727 821 870<\/a> to speak to one of our team. <\/span>\n<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">\n\t<span style=\"font-size:14px;\">You can also <a href=\"https:\/\/www.synthax.co.uk\/contact-us\/\" title=\"Get in contact with Synthax Audio UK\">contact us here<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Icon Platform M+ gets a 4.5 out of 5 rating from Future Music in their review.
