Would anyone be brave enough to extract the features / qualities that those GUIs have in common - that may be one small step towards a "GUI design for everybody". Or is that an impossible dream?
Well their two synths Element 2.0 and Codex have a one page GUI (no tabs) that are actually quite nice and easy to use IMO.Dasheesh wrote:Teksonik wrote:So it seems like a lot of people prefer GUIs that look like someone ate a box of crayons, dropped acid, then vomited all over them........
Ok fair enough. To each his own.
That would be WAVES.
This a totally biased assertion. I started to mess with computers in the ZX Spectrum era. Went all along, while doing music at the same time. Yet, I can't stand those childish, bright coloured and completely flat GUIs. To me, they simply hurt. They are productiviy killers, because I can't work with something that disgusts me just for looking at it..jon wrote: people who are generally adept with computers and focus on the music tend to prefer efficient, functional design over "shadows" and pixel chrome.
Not really even an assertion, just countertrolling Teksonik. I don't the connection he suggests exists outside jos prejudicous, little mind.fmr wrote:This a totally biased assertion.

BTW: Symptohm is an example of something that was highly praised, but never interested me, because I could not stand looking at it.
No. For me, a GUI is a sales argument. If it doesn't work for me, i couldn't be arsed to work to make it work for me. I want to buy a soft synth, no design construction kit.resynthesis wrote:Wouldn't it be nice if there was a global standard for GUIs which all the manufacturers could use then we could all add our widget preferences
