iCon M+ vs P1-M - Which DAW Controller Is Better? 

:D

You're welcome! The Display Accessories have a different port between the Platform M and the P1-M. The P1-M uses a Type C port whereas; the Platform M+ uses an older port that Honestly I am not sure what it's called. Looks like an old Thunderbolt port? I am not sure at all

@@OmoiSenpai Thanks for the reply! 👍 Thunderbolt, in any of its iterations, would seem like an overkill for the purpose; maybe it's a proprietary connector.

You can use the P1-M and it's Extender (The P1-X) in FL Studio. Maybe it can be done with the Platform M+ with the P1-M too. I'll see. I'll make a video about it for tomorrow!

Ayee! I am glad that this video was able to reach a fellow Platform M+ user :D I totally feel you on that! Sometimes, having too much can be.... too much! It's a give and take though. I appreciate you commenting ^_^

@@OmoiSenpai exactly! The metering would be nice though. Personally I’m using a streamdeck as well to use shortcuts. So the touchpad feels a little useless

I guess the only positive part would be that the touchpad is on the device, whereas, the Steamdeck is a further reach, and to me, pressing those buttons are a bit awkward compared. My Brother owns one, and idky but I have to cup my hand around it to press on it. I definitely want to grab one, but after using the P1-M, it's definitely lower on my priority list of things to grab for now.

@@OmoiSenpai haha yes I do the same thing to press it. And yeah, if you have the P1-M, no need to get one now haha

Hehe :D Glad the video gave you some insight! Either way you go, just know that having your hands on motorized faders will feel so much better than a mouse and doing it one at a time!

But But... Clicky :D lol true that though!

Thanks! I'm trying my best though, I still have some side-projects to deal with before I'll be able to get a lot more done here

Hello. If you mean to move the fader banks, so like from faders 1-8 to 9-16 then 17-24 etc then yes! They both have the ability to move the faders over either 1 bank, or 8 banks forward or backwards.

@@OmoiSenpai thanks for the info man!

No problem :D

Hey! Aww nice. I saw the V1-M through iCon's RU-vid Channel, but it looks too big for my setup. But man that Jogwheel looks like it's comfortable!! ^_^ As for the Color Scribble Strips, for FL Studio, it is not there as well under the legacy Mackie controller script, BUT it is possible to create a script that shows it. I've tested an unfinished script from a developer, and the scribble strips does show up! That is one thing that these Midi Developers lack on the most, the scripting section to have their devices compatible with every DAW as best as they could be. It's simply too much for their focus, which sadly diminishes their first appearances for the core audience.

Automatically! When you set up the controller type to the Mackie Control Universal, it will automatically do it's thing ^_^

Shieed it's been a minute since I been back over that side! I be buggin! ^_^

Thanks Ian ^_^ I am glad you liked it!
