One thing I'm missing from MOTU's default skins is the different colors of the send knobs according to level.
Andy spoiled me with those, and I need them now.

I LOVE those, so I hope Amplidood does that as a feature to all his mod revisions.

Gotta echo the request for "Sharp". I think I might set up a poll question. Which AMPGUIMOD would you like to see ported to a DP 7.2 "theme" first?

Granted, we probably all have more than one favorite, but it might help Andy prioritize which ones to work on first. I'll get to work on the poll topic.

I'll definitely look into that. I just love the way they pop out. It's so easy to see them like that.

Thanks for the tip, Dwetmaster 8)

Kudos to MOTU for implementing Themes, but I have to say that after trying a couple of them I am more impressed than ever by the job Andy and iPerformer did on their own skins. As much as I like MOTU's efforts, I can't work without Sharp! I'll be sticking with 7.12 for a little while longer, I guess. Thanks, Andy!

Thanks Dino.

Well, there are quite a few new options and graphics to update, so patience will be important here. I want to do this right and take full advantage of the new possibilities.

One thing that I'm a little bummed about is that MOTU has not allowed for themes to have their own Localizable or String xml files. This means (for now) the end of the Condensed Track List, control over default track names, and full control of mixer button names. It will take some work to make changes on each mod, or perhaps I will leave it in hopes that we'll get this function back.

More info soon...

Yep, I like the different textures, warm colors, counters, and more in Andy's Gold. Add MOTU's multi-colored mixer meter levels and I'm good :)

MOTU should totally hire Andy as a contractor and pay him to port his themes. They rock, DP rocks, this would make it double rock squared. :lol:

Well barring that, WE'LL pay him to port his themes by buying them. I'll happily pay to have Sharp in DP 7.2!
