Looks nice, so good job on it But I'm not jumping through 4Share's hoops/sign up just to download it.
FYI, DropBox is free and gives you 2GB of space to store things like this, and via the web interface will give you URLs to link to any file in your DropBox
For anyone on a Mac that wants to use this, you have to r-click on the Live app, select Show Package Contents, and then go into the Contents folder, then App-Resources folder, and then drop it into the Skins folder.

I don't 'produce.' I write music.

I would have to install drop box to upload it but I have also uploaded the skin to http://sonictransfer.com/ableton-live-skins/ a few days ago so you will just have to wait for them to get round to reviewing it.

It looks nice! Thank you XSIMan.
Re: Dark Skin for Live 9 & Live 8
Nice skin. How do you create it? I thought the skin editor from sonictransfer doesn't work for Live 9 skins anymore. I would love to create my own color schemes/skins.
No need to have it on your computer, you can up- and download via the web interface.XSIMan wrote:I would have to install drop box to upload...

Sonic Transfare works for live 9 too. I might give drop box another go one day.

There is a MaxforLive device that lets you open, save, and edit skins within Live.

Thanks for the link there are some things that can't be edited with the editor I used so Now I've got to get max4Live.

Looks good, I've always preferred darker GUI's. Easier on the eyes
Re: Dark Skin for Live 9 & Live 8
Surely. Max4Live is a very good and useful addition to Live, not only because of the Skin Editor.XSIMan wrote:Thanks for the link there are some things that can't be edited with the editor I used so Now I've got to get max4Live.

Re: Dark Skin for Live 9 & Live 8
That's a great skin! It reminds me of Adobe Premiere - if you change to a dark background, the letters turn white. Premiere is an example of a simple grey theme that looks great (unlike default Ableton skins).
I like dark skins too, but They don't work properly. For example, if you open the midi editor for drums, the letters for the drum names are dark and the background is dark, so you can't read them.
Maybe the M4L version works better. I'll check it out.
