Yes, cashman is right. Black letters would be better!

Hey Klinikal.

Excellent work.

Would it be a nightmare to have versions of the black skins (with Red the obvious exception) which keep Red colourings for the Record Buttons (Global and channel)?

This would be fantastic for the likes of traditional folks like myself.

LOL

...I don't think so :)

As soon as I find some time I will work on the skins to improve them and I will release also an orange version. :)

My wish: Something in between control version and non control:
The small triangles (browser, mixer, arrange, stop buttons, clip play triangles in session) should get the colored edges, (much better to see!) but not the other parts (doesnt look cool, kind of too much and isn't needed for visibility optimization).

I'll go with that. Too many red lines are overkill.
Too much blood dripping from the Ninja-to!

Wave form color...

The white clip waveform color is a deal breaker for me. The rest is awesome...

That's my last request... a dark waveform on a light background.

Otherwise, perfect! :D

+1 for the dark waveform on a lighter colored background. i can deal with the white, but i would prefer not to. :)

other than that, these skins are ridiculously hot!!!!

thanks again for such great work!

p.s. i appreciate the multi-colored clips on the latest versions. very helpful. :)

I am sorry, but am I the only ones that think these skins are crap?

It doesn't matter which skin I use in the pack, my tunes are still rubbish?

Ahhh... why can't I see the note names on the MIDI note ruler, especially when folded? Were these skins always like this, or am I missing something?

Edit: I CAN see them... just about... they're black on about 95% black, except in non-folded mode and when mousing over the MIDI note editor, when they turn a very useful white.

Would be great if they always stayed white...

This is excellent, thanks.

Some small impovements as has been said and this will be perfect, and perhaps the best skin i've ever seen.

I use Ninja almost constantly. When I have to go back to the default skin for things like MIDI editing it just looks messed up to me now.
The only thing I miss about the default is the wide range of clip colors. The colors in the Klinikal pack work with the dark feel of the skins but the primary & secondary colors of the Live-supplied skins seem a little more legible. If you ever found the time to do versions with unchanged clip colors they would be perfect.
That's a small detail, though. These have been like getting a free upgrade. Thanks for all the work.
