The new GUI is horrible, a total mess. It's like a throwback to an old Atari interface or something. I'm shocked that it would be released like this. For the life of me, I can't imagine why they just didn't take one of the other beautiful themes by White Tie and modify it slightly for this release if they're not going to update the underlying GUI code. They've taken an already dis-joined hodgepodge of GUI elements and modifications, and added an additional layer of complicated nonsense.

I love everything that Reaper is capable of doing, but I don't think we're going to see many new users until the GUI code is rewritten to look professional and just "work" without modifications and scripts. I mean those things are just fine for the people who want to tinker, modify, customize, etc. But most DAW users just want to create music in a consistent manner as quickly and easily as possible. I don't need to repaint my car every time I go the grocery.
