Re: Amplidood's GUI mod 1.6.1 (always updating first post)
Sorry, lots going on in my brain today. Accuracy may not be one of them.amplidood wrote:The resting state of the inserts is grey...
I meant the active inserts - that Lima Beany color. If you dumped the greenishness of it. In RGB, if that green was pulled back you'd have more of a bluish color - which would work with the buttons below ie. solo, etc.
Again, it's only my opinion. And I agree with you and James that a neutral (but visible) separation makes the interface look calmer. The inserts should be soothing too.
I don't like Lima beans personally. Maybe this is the problem.

Success is just one more plugin away! And happiness is as close as your next upgrade.

And sorry if it has been discussed before but it would be nice to have that same insert/send separator between tracks to continue between the solo/rec/mute/input buttons and the pan knobs.

Great work, Dood. By the time MOTU catches on to this, your design will be better than theirs.

amplidood, you're the man for figuring this out. DP6 just came back up on my radar as a possibility.

Despite being the staunch supporter of the dp6 UI, I have to say that this is looking really great.
I would be very happy if Motu adapted this as an optional theme.
We should start a write-in to see if they would do that

thank you for the light pink/rose colored track record triangles. i can now see them. before the grey on grey was hard to see now it is MUCH better!

The background in the mixer is absorbing the mixer ie. there's no contrast but for that white vertical line. Maybe lighten it up slightly. Or even throw in a color. That's just my opinion.

Re: Amplidood's GUI mod 1.7 (always updating first post)
I've tried 1.7.1 over DP6.01 and only the Mixer Volume fader seems to be reacting weird to the Mod. There is a fader icon stuck at the top of of the fader when you move it down.amplidood wrote:will check 6.01 compatibilty later...

Yeah, seems they've changed the graphic for the faders a bit. I'll deal with that later today.
