I want to adda custom function:
To alter and customize controls beyond standard MCP, please review the DAW developer support
on customizing controller assignments in expert view. In Cubase, it is possible to assign Key
Commands (instead of MCP functions) to MIDI Input generated from buttons on Icon control
surfaces. In the typical style of MCP implementation, device-specific MIDI input used by the DAW
for MCP is blocked from other uses.
I want to rescale the faders:
The fader volume curve, zero dB position and value range are preset in the DAW implementation
of MCP, and can’t be adjusted. There is variance between different DAWs.
I want to change the Jog Wheel resolution:
The behavior of the Jog Whee l is preset in the DAW implementation of MCP. There is variance
between different DAWs. T here may be some adjustment for this, at least by changing grid
settings . Pressing Scrub enables fine movement with the Jog Wheel .
<<<<<<<<< Firmware Update >>>>>>>>>
To accommodate future changes to MCP implementation in new DAW versions plus expand on
operational features, Icon provides Firmware updates for current production and legacy control
surfaces.
Caution:
Please take ex tra care to follow the correct procedure when performing a firmware update. When
performing a firmware upgrade, always connect directly to the computer without a USB Hub or
extension, and only connect one device to the computer during update. Also quit all other software
which can access MIDI input/output such as your DAW or utility programs.
Verify the power source is well connected to the control surface. You can check by starting the
controller with no USB cable connected. If thedevice startup proceeds normally, external power
appears to be ok.
To Update:
OSX – Inst all and open the device-specificiMap, use “Connect” to select your device, click Update
and follow the directions on screen.(For an XS or EX unit, first switch iMap mode by clicking the
QCon icon in iMap)
Window s / Legacy – Install and open the device-specific iMap, use “MIDI Devices” to select your
device, click Update. Newer iMap releases automatically download the correct firmware online.
!After Firmware Update, reinstall the device in your DAW by deleting the previous device
configuration and repeating the MCP device setup.
!Never attempt to “downgrade” firmware of an Icon control surface.
! Only use the i Map and Firmware versions specific for your hardware version. Also be sure to get
the newest iMap on the Icon Pro Audio website.
! Never unpack a .bin firmware file
