All the banter with SK got me thinking how hard can this Gui designing be?
Needless to say it's harder than I thought but I thought I'd share my efforts with you....

I know some of you will say it takes up too much real estate, others will say they prefer an ableton type 'simpler' interface but this was an exercise in textures and effects.
All feedback welcome
[edit2]
Reduced the size of 'the fuzz' from insane to normal
This is what I did for Bassbomb from Dlm

And here's a Synth1 effort...
EDIT: 2012
I thought I'd come back to this thread and post a little update, plus it's nice to keep things chronologically laid out. Here's some schtuff I've done...
You should be able to drag them to a new window to view full size (it's only the forum that shrinks them)
^That's a mystery one, that might be upcoming
(Again, try dragging to a new window to view full size)
As always, I welcome and appreciate feedback

Just don't say the magic words, "So sue me."
Also: Looks nice and clean, if large. Could use some "glow" around the actuated button, and to my eyes all that saturated cyan looks wrong with the more subtle other colors. Matters of taste I suppose. Good luck with it.

I don't expect anything will ever come of it, was just playing around. I've already learnt loads, like how to do a knob, didn't have a clue what I was gonna do when I started. Also the chrome text is new to me and the buttons, ok, everything lol
Which saturated cyan are you reffering to? The 'title'?

That and the (to my vision) odd knob highlight. The buttons are less intense and look more realistic.scoobz wrote:Which saturated cyan are you reffering to? The 'title'?

Yeah, I hear you. What I wanted to do was a series of led segments around the knob, I'm still trying to work out how to divide a circle into a number of segments.
One of my hobbies is fashion photo retouching so I know most of the tools but measuring and being accurate isn't in my skillset (yet ). Will make some tweaks.

Still on my gui designing quest
Here's something I knocked up for fun for DLM's forthcoming Bassbomb....

The original in case you haven't seen it already....

Nice. The font colour is better, but I liked the knob of the first try more. You could use the red circle around it to make a glowing sector to indicate the amount and the inner glas could glow up in orange from the incoming signal...scoobz wrote:Not perfect but I was thinking more along these lines....

You got something going on there scoobz!
Nice work, for first attempts those gui's are fantastic!
I can imagine what you could do once fully inspired and the learning curve has past.
Can I contact you for future work
We are working on a very cool skinning system for future plugs that has a nice editor for making skins and aligning things proper etc. I bet you would have a blast with it as it makes things easier.
Anyways, cheers and again, nice stuff.

Thanks Wok, I've since discovered knobman (read yesterday ) and have been searching through posts here on KvR and found many fine examples by yourself. Good ideas, if anything every came of that gui that's probably the way I'd go.

Oh and can I just say Knobman is seriously addictive! Got about 7 original (well as much as they can be) designs in the bag and ready to roll
