Icon Pro Audio P1-Nano Reviews
Appears to be good, but support is aweful
By Adam

The device hooked up easily with first connection and was easily configured to my particular DAW.
However, one of the first requirements is to update the firmware. This somewhat rigorous process failed so a support ticket was created. Two weeks later all I have is confusion and disarray and no solution. I would be very cautious about purchasing this product if you depend on the efficacy of a vendor's support capabilities. It appears to be lacking here and will probably result in a return request.
Almost Perfect

Having used the SSL UF1 as well as the Avid S1 and Pro Tools Dock in the past, this device succeeds in where those didn't work out for me. I have to say, the Streamdeck style touch screen is wonderful and a standout feature for me. I particularly like how it makes triggering DAW commands accessible and easy to see while working. I found that the other devices didn't quite hit the nail on the head in this regard.
This device looks and feels professional, and I have no gripes there. It feels like a blend of plastic and metal. I prefer it to the feeling of the previous devices I've used, and this is significantly more affordable so big win for Icon there.
The reason I give 4 stars is because the fader flip function doesn't work well at the time of review. While it works, at this moment I've been unable to figure out how to control specific plugin parameters. It seems that it will pick a random parameter when flipping to the fader. Hopefully, Icon can release more information or do an update in the future that will address. When they do, I will give this 5 stars. At the moment I've had to come up with my own workarounds for this.
Also, Icon please do better with your documentation and videos. There is a severe lack of information about how to utilize the functions on these new devices. I've worked in IT and have documented many processes; it is not that hard. Please do better, the initial process of figuring this device out was unnecessarily difficult because of the lack of deeper information.
To prospective buyers, with a little patience you will be able to get this device working wonderfully in your setup. I've really enjoyed it and decided to keep it as ultimately it helps me stay in the zone when recording or mixing. Anything that can do that is worthy of having a place on my desk. Cheers!

Will it work with vMix?

The Icon Pro Audio P1-Nano Compact DAW Control Surface Bundle with D5 Display can be used with V-Mix software. However, since the control surface is a generic MIDI device, you will need to create your own templates.
