The Platform M from Icon Digital USA is a high-speed USB 2.0 audio and MIDI surface for controlling aspects of your DAW, as well as the plug-ins used therein. Featuring a robust metal casing with a Kensington lock port, the Platform M gives you eight motorized faders, a touch-sensitive master fader, illuminated transport controls, bank buttons for cycling between groups of faders, and a jog wheel for shuttling around your projects easily and effectively.
Included with the Platform M are mapping presets for Pro Tools, Logic, Reason, Studio One, Ableton Live, Cubase, Nuendo, and more, with Mackie Control or HUI protocols allowing for seamless DAW integration. This controller also interfaces with VST, RTAS, Direct X and AU plug-ins to help you dial in controls in a more tactile manner, should you not wish to use your mouse. The Platform M is modular, so it can be integrated into the Platform-series ecosystem with ease.
