Grey Theme with white text

Post by Musicmind »

Hi
I just saw a youtube video with David Lawrence about DP8.
He uses a nice theme with a kind of grey background and white text.
Anybody knows what that could be, and maybe knows the theme, and how to get it?

It might help if you added a link to a screenshot. Someone might recognize it.

I think those are just the built in themes.

He's using Carbon Fiber, but he has lightened all the grey shades substantially, he may have modified the theme by hand..

Thanks a lot.
I saw it when I was browsing through the themes but I agree that it is quite a bit lighter in the video.

Yeah, those are MOTU themes. Andy's themes are always a little more customized in the fader-heads, counter font, tool icons, buttons, etc. He zips through several themes while talking about how much he loves that feature, and he's just going through the MOTU list as he does. I don't know which one he ends up on (that dark-gray) but it's just one of the MOTU gray themes.

I think he shares my sentiments regarding themes and colors in DP. If you're going to live there for a considerable part of every day, you should be able to decorate it to suit your color preferences.

Nice interview, btw. Here's to David's continued success!

Doesn't David know that Cubase won a 2015 TEC Award and he should be concerned? ;)

:mrgreen:

Seems quite blissful. Maybe he knows something that TEC doesn't!

It did?

What, other than payola and cronyism, could have caused that?

The announcements don't say. Maybe VST Connect. There's not much else.

It's kind of an inside joke. Look for the topic about Cubase in the OT forum. :)
