Icon Platform M+ abstraction?
Hi everyone,
I just got my hand on an Icon Platform M+ controller. Since it works really well for me in DAWs like Reaper and Live, it would be great to be able to integrate it into my Max workflow, too.
Searching the net didn't turn up the finished abstractions I had dared to hope for.
But, before setting out to building this myself and not really believing that nobody ever tried to use this controller with Max (not just by MIDI mapping in the patch), I wanted to ask, if someone out there has started or even finished this project and would be willing to share his or her insights.
Best,
Volkmar
the mackie hui and mackie control protocols are simple, but as far as i know you would need to have a max external specific for the usb driver of the icon in order to "get in touch".
anyone knows more?
I'm interested in this too. Just got one for a project and while I'm sure using it as a controller will be easy, I'm imagining two-way control with the faders will be less so. I'll be doing my own investigations and will share anything I can find, but if anyone else has already done this work, please let us know!
Wow! Nice work! I already just now worked out all I needed (in case anyone else is paying attention), that it's simply a matter of using bendin and bendout on channels 1-9 to communicate both ways with the faders (and this can be changed to CCs if preferred in the software), but this complete implementation will I'm sure come in handy. Thanks!
