I have been working on a new skin design for quite a while now. Although it isnt finished yet i thought i'd upload an image of it for you guys to let me know what you think.

Feel free to let me know.



I know i need to change the text colour on deck b.

It looks great for so far :) I think it looks better with te right song info placed more to the right. (more mirror effect) and than align the text to the right.

Updated preview of this skin. Hoping to have it finished by the weekend.

Thanks to Patje_1 for your input - i beleive i have made the change u suggested and i agree it looks much better,



If you have any input on this skin that you would like to make the please post it and i will endeavour to include it. However i am making this skin primarily to meet my needs in am happy to make alterations.

Please do not ask for a specific resolution as the Skin Resizer Tool from JeremK should be able to do it for you (i will test it when it's finished)

I will make a "Windows" version too.

Thanks

Very nice indeed, I love the old school digital numbers. Is it possible to make them a tad bigger

A further update on this skin.

Thanks to jimmy_b and JeremK for your input.

CHANGES:

> Added crossfader at top if you need it (most users have external controllers etc with this on)
> Added CPU meter
> EQ's Added
> Keylock Added
> Added elapsed time



If anyone can see anything obvious that i've missed then please let me know.
Just got to program the loop buttons and tidy things up.

Thanks

In the picture I provided, the black and white part should be used as clipmask to improve the colouring of the buttons.

Thanks Jeremk - i forgot to add the clipmask on the image above but i did rectify it.

Anything missing - that anyone can think of?

Final version of this one - my first skin - actually a lot easier to than i first thought.

All recommendations dually noted and included!!

It should be available on the Skin Downloads page soon - i will post a link when it is.

Windows version should be up soon after making some alterations to suit the platform (probably tomorrow or over the weekend)

Nice skin!

Keep it up;)

Firstly can I say I like a lot of this skin.

One small thing I would ask for is a loop length indicator.
I know you have direct loop buttons but with the controller I use I have a rotary encoder to adjust loop length and a button to engage loop so it would be handy to see in advance what length it will activate at.
Just imagine like using Esc to engage your loop.
If you're happy to do it but not sure where, maybe in between Loop In/Out or close proximity to it?

I will include this on the Windows release which should be up tomorrow. I will add to the list for the next Mac release.
If you are a Mac user and want it sooner then let me know.

Thanks
