I'm rather impressed by iPerformer's savvy move to make certain versions "donate only". I feel the next round of these I'm coming up with are getting to a level I had really only dreamed about when i first started. It may be time to make certain versions that I really feel are on another level available only to those that donate. If nothing happens on the MOTU front I have to start making moves make sure I can keep doing this into the future. I don't think the need or validity for this work is in the proving stages anymore.

Value comes from perception, and it may be up to me to be smarter about it. Of course, those that already have donated will have automatic access. :)

Onward!

Looking forward to anything you come up with, and I don't mind hitting the Donate switch again.

AMPLIDOOD:

Man, I'm REALLY digging the Sleek mod. It's so sleek! :)
I LOVE the mixer faders, with that cool shade of progressively dimmer green (and how it disappears if the track is muted), and the fader level numbers.
So far it's my favorite by far (Night comes as a close second).

Brilliant!

There is just one tiny little thing that would make the Sleek mod PERFECT:
I wish the pan knobs showed that cool "shade" when they are NOT in the center position (kind of like you have in the Night mod).
Maybe with the same shade of green that you have in the Faders? (when not muted).

What do you think? If you add that, Sleek would be absolute perfection for me.
Or is that something I can add myself with one of those "extras" files?

Thanks for your work, man. My DP experience is so much nicer visually because of your mods!

I'm not a big fan of pan halos anyway. I'll probably lose them altogether.

Loving the latest look, Andy! You got that in grey? Hahaha... BTW, could you correct my atrocious grammar in my testimonial on your website? I think I dropped a word-- I'd like people to think I finished the 8th grade.. :lol: :lol: :lol:

Looks great!
Nice work.

I'm not a fan of the brown background, though, it reminds me of WWII.
Is there a way to globally change the brown to more of a grey?

One other request....
Any way to make it more obvious when a plug is bypassed?
The italics are sometimes too subtle for my old eyes.
Could it be a color change or color "on/off"?

This is nit picky and the bottom line is that I love your mods.

Keep up the great work!
All is well

There will be variations on this theme, to be sure. I wish there was something I could do with insert bypassing, but unless DP already does something like that there's nothing I can change.

Nothing nit picky at all... we're all passionate creatives!!
