To be honest, i am finding myself more and more opening and using Logic Pro X again on my macbook which has an external Dell display attached.
The GUI of Logic is just looking utterly sharp and incredibly inviting to do work in it.
I make many hours producing in Reaper but the annoyance for me of looking at a blurry, totally unattractive GUI is getting bigger and bigger, especially when i have a comparison like Logic. (And i tried many Reaper Themes).
I respect people who dare to say that a bad/blurry looking GUI needn't be a roadblock when working in a DAW, but personally i have to totally disagree.
For me, Eye Candy is really important and i know for sure i am not the only one, having read dozens and dozens of complaints about Reaper GUI here in this community.
I don't want to sound very dramatic but i may switch totally back (with great pain in my heart) to Logic, if Reaper doesn't get a serious GUI overhaul in the end.(#Sharp2.0)
Altough Reaper has way way much more to offer regarding audio and midi functionality (ReaPack Rules!) etc etc etc than Logic, i just can't ignore my ("depressive") feelings when working in Reaper and looking at its GUI against working in Logic and looking at its GUI.

I didn't ask about that. You said you want a "brand new good looking modern UI" with a specific kind of functionality ("completely different from that that you have in mind"). Could you describe it in detail, please?

I think it should be obvious that I was kidding, simply trying to be exactly as vague as the post I answered to.
(While vanhaze says "blurry" which I myself don't see, but seems like an understandable descriptions of something he does notice and dislikes. )

Maybe, if you want to put it that way.
Because:
- "brand new" usually means not decently elaborated
- "good looking" means completely different stuff for different people. No chance ever for a wide agreement about that.

I'm somewhat with you but it is an undeniable scientific fact that what we see affects how we hear - especially when it is tied to something we use to affect sound - so be careful. I'd go so far as to say *some* become frustrated with less-pretty GUIs for the very fact it is filling in gaps in the music and they don't realize that's what's occurring.
I don't have any problems with the GUI though, I'm not really there for visual perks unless it is purely workflow related as in being able to find a button quickly etc. I don't mind it looking OK but it already looks plenty OK.

For v6 I wish for the following things:
Better UI/GUI
Better Workflow
Better Plug-ins
Fewer Bugs
Cheers!

What I would like to see in Reaper 6
ARA2
A native modular environment like Bidule
A Cubase like Logical Editor, Transformer and Input Transformer.
VST3.5
Multi-touch Mixer.
Vectorized GUI

Reaper 6 absolutely needs:
1) Everything from every other DAW, but done perfectly and somehow all works together with no bugs. And has the best CPU usage that Reaper already does, plus all the scripting/shortcuts/etc.
2) The best modern GUI that is objectively perfect by everyone's standards, scientifically. It should look like photorealistic hardware but also not distract you in any way at all, plus fit on the screen perfectly and read your mind so you don't even have to use the controls for anything.
3) All the plugins. You know what I mean. Objectively better. Do the math.
4) A lower price.

I suppose you are right. But drawing any conclusions .... be careful !
We all are different so what might influence one user in one way, might affect the other in the opposite way.

It needs photorealistic textured flat colours. Like a vintage Ableton.

Absolute must to be decently modern:
- 3D GUI using a virtual reality device !
- VR gloves with haptic feedback (oh those sexy smoothly sliding faders )

Hi
In my opinon the looks of Reaper is even better than Cubase Pro 9.5
But im on a regular HD screen no 4k or retina stuff.
Maybe all it needs is more options to suit everyone needs as best as possible?

Yep, there's already a beta hires theme. I'm on a 27" 5k retina screen and don't notice the blurriness to be honest, maybe because I'm further away from the screen than I would be with a laptop?
It's all a matter of taste as far as colours go though - I find Logic to look severely dull and uninspiring, personally.

The mixer is the best. I don't know of another DAW that allows so much customisation and clarity for folders, subgroups, VCA's etc...

Does the session mixer not have any truncated elements when it is small and docked?

I don't know my use is only in full screen toggle between Arrange View on F9 keycommand and Mixer view on F10 keycommand. Its always at optimal size for my eyes and context (either edit or mix)

We should probably start by reading the manual. Then cross off all the things on our list that are already in Reaper 5.

Create a marker and name it !1013.
!1013 marker is Transport: Record, this will provide a Punch In with no Punch Out.

Logic. Really???
I recently did a whole album in Logic Pro 9 & also had a look at Pro X. Cluttered, awkward, Not easy to split stuff out onto two screens... but I bet most of my criticisms are because I didnt spend enough time or delve deep enough whilst working on that album. I read the manual, bought a groove 3 basic tutorial & joined toe 2 biggest Logic forums and that was it. The guy I was working with had used |Logic for years but still knew less than I did.
Maybe its a case of NOT using a small retina screen when comparing Reaps5 with Logic?

Ok, now I stop joking...I need a very good integrated articulation mapper for the midi editor and maybe a pin tracks option. I think I'm realistic enough.

I really miss this!, no matter how to name it if is a similar concept, Indeed others name it in a different way:
Protools : Playlist
Samplitude : Revolver Tracks
Logic Pro X: Track Alternatives
Cubase : Track Version
Studio one : Layers

Oh, I forgot to mention a better control over velocity (I'm talking about "drawing" tools) and maybe the possibility to name midi cc lanes in midi editor to know what kind of parameter we are going to automate based on the type of instrument. So we need different names for different tracks.

Please with the real time render recording popup widow make
this expandable and add a time ruler to the base so we can easily find
the area of the rendered mix where the hot levels are so we can edit the mix for the next render without having to import the not so good rendered file to see the damage and make adjustments.
The improvement to workflow would be immense.
