In this video we take a look at how the new Assign Matrix works on ICON surfaces with PT8.
At first, the matrix may seem complicated but that passes fairly quickly with a little bit of use. One of the key differences and advantages of this method of assignment compared to the legacy behaviour is you no longer have to move your hand around to see the scribble strip while turning the pot…now the menu is laid out across a panel of pots and you simply hit the select buttons as required, speeding up the process enormously. Secondly, we are now assigning busses, plugs and I/O in a consistant fashion, making ICON easier to learn for folks new to the surfaces.
There is also lots of info in the D-Control v8.0 guide Chapter 12 titled “Assigning Inserts, Sends and I/O with the Assign Matrix” and similarly in the D-Control v8.0 guide for the 2 encoder version, but the behaviour is largely the same.
Sorry it’s hard to read the scribble strips in the video, but hopefully with your own ICON in front of you and this video it will all make sense!

The Matrix
Please excuse me, but I want to write something off Topic:
I am giving a little time to go through blog’s like this, perhaps unwittingly, have helped me when I decided to start in March.
I want to have a spectacular end of year and the beginning of next much much better.
Blessings from Chile!
