I had several things I had on my "wishlist" that I couldn't do anything about with a mod.
1. The color of the Tracks Overview.
2. An inactive send state.
3. A different color for the wiper.
4. The little white spaces where "solo/mute/rec/input" were.
These things all are changeable now with 7.1. I just discovered the mixer button fix, will be putting out an incremental update. So does this mean MOTU thinks the mods looking their best is important? Or just that they are trying to make their own jobs easier?
I'd imagine that it's a bit of both. It seams like Motu is really paying attention to things that are being said right now, I saw this on the Motu site regarding 7.1:
Digital Performer 7.1 made its debut at the NAMM Show 2010 in Anaheim, CA this past weekend to appreciative crowds at the MOTU booth. Product specialists showed off dozens of new 7.1 features, including the new Tuner plug-in and Track Folder enhancements, with word that the update would be available soon. Well, it's two days later and Version 7.1 is now shipping as a free update for all registered DP7 users.
I think the message comes through loud and clear.
So, your Mods are really a good thing for Motu. It creates a sense of community and makes us all feel like we are invested and have a voice within DP.
Plus you did a great job in publicizing and clarifying what you needed from them to make these mods kill and they delivered!
Hi,

I'll be emailing the additional files to all those who donate. Sorry for the delay, been restructuring things a bit.

I think you are right. There's just one folder where all mod materials can go now. That's HUGE for simplicity. That could even lead the way to me developing a mod-switching app. I've stayed away from that just because it seems better to have different copies with different icons to me.
Thanks Andy! You are quick! I just thought to myself yesterday. how long it might take you to upgrade my 2 favourites ( sleek and Gold ) to 7.1 - and hey presto, here it is already!
Keep up the good work....
thank you for posting the illustrated guide for drummers.
it seems to be installed now but I am not able to figure out the DP Gold icon procedure.
when you say double click the picture,which 1 do you mean?
drummer jokes welcome
thanks
