With the utmost respect though, although I love this theme, I found the colouring to be a little dark and lifeless (sorry). So I took some inspiration from the current iZotope plugins - Neutron 3, Ozone 9 and Nectar 3 and made a few mods, mostly in the colouring, but adjusted a few icons to suit my own personal tastes.
Note - I haven't tried to make the theme look like Neutron per se, just the colouring...
I haven't tackled the toolbar icons yet - and you must excuse my effort here as I'm only a hack at this!

If there's any interest, I'm happy to share and will create a separate thread and upload to the stash, but it's only something created for my own tastes and unless someone points out an error, I don't think I'll be developing it too much further.




Looks great. I'm also like Hydra very much and use it daily. I wanna try your mod if you dont mind.

No Problem, let me know if you find anything obviously out of place with it!

Cheers for that. Interlaced the meters and I'm testing it out right now. Certainly jumps out of the monitor at me, but doesn't burn my retinas at the same time

Also, is there any way i could grab those icons from someone? I.e drums, bass etc that are on the right toolbar. They look great! I assume you are using those with your track view sets?
I am trying some different methods for track selection/show (as shown by the guy fromm the reaper blog) but i want to get some icons for them.

All the best! This theme really is smart.

There's nothing to Update per se, Theme works perfectly..

Except maybe creating a Tweaker Script,
or adding a Layout/function you may need which isn't there to begin with..

For me, the master track in the arrange doesn’t work. Transport controls doesn’t want to center. When I have a folder track, the vu meteres doesn’t show anything when the folder is minimized.
Tested again last yesterday and I still have these issues.

Hmm strange,
each of the things you mention work perfectly/as intended here..

I'm on Windows 7, maybe that's a factor?

Default So there is a bug...

Love this theme...might become my default on the 4k laptop.

There is an issue though, in the FX layout for MCP tracks. The top "left" control strip (where you can turn on/off effects as a group or display the track fx window) opens the track fx window for any click on any portion of that bar.

i.e., if you just want to toggle the fx chain off/on (as we do often in mixing), right now the two windows (fx insert and track fx windows) open as well.

Would love to get the on/off functionality for the entire set of fx without the fx selection windows getting opened.

It also works alright here!

As long as it has an Effect inside, the button Enables/Disables..

Yeah - the "power" button on that bar shouldn't instantiate the fx insert window. Period. It's (only) for turning off/on the entire effects "module" on the track.

I get it that once you have something inserted, it works as advertised, but it's still a bug. Edit: apparently not - see below.

Great theme, though - not knocking it in the general sense - just pointing out a functionality issue that probably should be corrected.

So it seems other themes I have do this as well.

So this isn't a theme specific thing - sorry blankfiles.

That said, the behavior is weird and non-standard. The "power" button of the enable/disable effects dialogue should only do just that - enable or disable the effects module.

What would you be enabling then? :P

I know, maybe it's not the most natural thing,
but it's the way Reaper has been since I can remember!

Reaper is just the only DAW to advance your own thoughts/needs!

Hey dude, I'm looking to make a modification to the colours of the theme, is there something in the theme that darkens colour on the track control panel a bit, like a transparent overlay or something?

I can post examples if need be!

really appreciate any help you could give me

thanks in advance!

I'd also gladly donate to this for an update. Would donate even more for a 4k update.

I'd love it if the transport could be centered and to have the toolbars from BF's screenshots, those are amazing.

HYDRA theme is at 12th place in REAPER Stash by "Popularity" rank.

It's one of the best themes you ever made. I still use it and tested dozens of themes.
The contrast / colors / readability etc is top notch.

I encourage you to update it when time is available.

Best regards,
Andrei
