Thanks to Icon Tech support and the Icon Facebook user group pages for assistance. Here I address and resolve recent issues with with my QCon Pro X /XS system on Apple Studios M1 Max using Logic Pro X on OS Monterrey. I had trouble performing firmware upgrade on the Qcons using iMap V2.33 and the Icon boards freezing while playback of logic sessions.
Icon Support advised me to use the iMap (utilizing their Secret T method) and I was finally able to get firmware re-installed on my Pro X. and through trial and error, i found a workaround for freezing Qcon Pro X & XS units using an OWC TB Dock.
IMPORTANT NOTE: ****QCON XS EXTENDERS MUST BE SET UP IN LOGIC AS MACKIE EXTENDERS, NOT MACKIE CONTROL AS DESCRIBED ON THE ICON PRO AUDIO WEBSITE. ONLY THE MAIN QCON PRO X IS SET UP AS A MACKIE CONTROL.
IN LOGIC PRO MENU - LOGIC PRO - CONTROL SURFACE - SET UP - NEW - INSTALL
QCON PRO X - MACKIE CONTROL
QCON XS 1 - MACKIE EXTENDER 1
QCON XS 2 - MACKIE EXTENDER 2
AND SO ON.......
I do not own an Icon One hub, so it could possibly be another workaround. The one Hub is $250CDN and if it won't work, please be aware that dealers will not return the unit without a 15-25% restocking fee here in Canada and shipping costs are incurred by the customer, so there is risk to purchasing one.
The OWC TB dock is working for me now but i hope this issue can be resolved somehow so I do not need to tie up a TB4 port on my Mac studio.
