MrGuy: Not bad as for me. But colors are not exactly the same (just exactly not the same ). Why haven't you simply picked them from Alex_HS's BMP's? The second important think: all panels in S1 have noticable (5-20%) gradients. Your theme hasn't. I'm far from critisizing your work, but this this two things are very noticeable. IMHO, S1's GUI main secret is perfectly balanced color gamma, so I think it would be natural to repeat it with 100% accuracy.

hey out there



it's screenshot-time again... played around a bit with the mixer / track backgrounds (more the gradient ones from studio one...)... still not 100% ok with it, but its getting closer
mute / solo buttons a lot better now.. same with the arm-button...

what do you think about the envlope thing?!

puh... still much icon-work to do :P

rock on, guys!

Hello MrGuy,

Automation Control Panels (Envelopes): I like them a lot, not intrusive and easy to distinguish.

FX, I/O, Env, Phase icons are much better now.

Mute/Solo Button could display their "on" state in other ways (I know you're trying to do an Studio One Theme but maybe instead of clone it you can make it better ). For example, you could use "blue" and "red" colors but not in full button but only on letter and little strip over the letters "S" and "M" (like if there's some light "inside" the button when it's pushed).

TCP (Track Control Panel) Volumen Faders: They are nice but maybe you could make them a little, just a little, bit smaller

Thanks again for your work MrGuy!!!!!!!!

I can see what you mean and yes, for some people it could be hard to distinguish buttons states but believe me: I like them . Just keep your current version (full colored buttons when pushed) but please, if it's not too much, include "glowing" buttons as extras in your release.

Thanks!!!!!

It would be good but I think these gentlemen have already started these themes so I think it would be better if you work on some other theme (original). Your telent is great so probably that theme would be a nice addition to reaper's collection... we'd be very thankful for it

Nice work! I think the hardware faders are probably the nicest ones I've ever seen - just the right size, detailed and not clunky. Looking forward to this

Whoever makes a Presonus theme should leave the Presonus logo out of it though. I'm not talking trademark stuff or anything, I just think it looks daft.

It's not Presonus, it's Reaper.. so stick with the Cockos/Reaper logo instead.

my two cents

hi ,) if you mean the waveform icon: thats not a logo, its the track icon for recorded stuff... one for midi will also be there in the final version of the theme... i would NEVER use a logo in a theme.. thats... just NO WAY

Default Final :)

After a very short night without sleep it's done

- Re-worked Solo-Icon a bit...
- New "Arm" Button! I think its much better :P
- Changed Transport Icon's color to a fitting blue...
- Track Icons included (Wave & Midi)
- Some stuff

O.K. it startet as a Studio One Theme and ended up as something new... why not :P

Hope you'll enjoy it and give feedback

Looks very nice!
The only thing that confuses me is that the solo button is red when active. I personally would flip the colours of solo and mute.

fooling around to learn italian since ages (such a nice language, but not enough time here) this is the first spanish sentence I completely understood! Hey! Yo soy de Santander. (this is a lie, I just was in northern spain for 2 weeks once, and never in Venezuela). And the theme and the variation both look just wonderful. Gracias por el tema da color (cough...)

I hate to be a dick, but this skin is almost perfect. But the background - the very dark blue - it is just waaaaay too dark.

+1. i didn't want to say anything either. this theme comes really close to
studio1 and looks good but the super dark colors on the TCP and MCP
completely kill it for me. personally its too much of a contrasting tone. excellent job otherwise...
