System requirements
The Owners manual lists the system requirements for Windows and MacOS. ICONS uses iLok protection for authorization.
ICONS needs an audio interface to allow signal from the instrument to enter the computer, and if necessary, to monitor the audio output. This can be a Fractal Audio device that supports USB Audio (Axe-Fx, FM3, FM9, AM4, VP4) or a 3rd party product. Read the manual.
Amp, cab and effects
Consult Fractal Audio’s Owners Manuals and this wiki for more information about the amp models, cabs and other effects.
