Nah...I prefer surprises!

I hate surprises, and I hate waiting even more, so... bring it on. The sooner the better.AudioGuy720 wrote:Nah...I prefer surprises!Peter - IK Multimedia wrote:Yes, we are for sure changing it I meant should I post an early peek at the new GUI. Seems ready now, I'm told.
bad gui design...about 33% wasted, unusable space at the expense of too-small knobs and vu'sTeksonik wrote:If it looks anything like this style you'll have a winner.......
Now that is a freakin GUI...........
Don't worry. Since the British Channel doesn't have reels and tape heads, we are in no dangerel-bo (formerly ebow) wrote:bad gui design...about 33% wasted, unusable space at the expense of too-small knobs and vu'sTeksonik wrote:If it looks anything like this style you'll have a winner.......

and in doing so there seemed to be the implication that one would need to have used it to have an opinion...and that because no one had complained that my opinion wasn't validPeter - IK Multimedia wrote:I was just asking a fair question and stating a fact

Designing a GUI is always a matter of finding balances and making compromises. I saw people advocating the minimalist approach, and stating that only sound matters... It isn't true, and the fact is that if you have two similar products, and one looks better than the other, you choose the one that looks better (I would).el-bo (formerly ebow) wrote: the point is the decision was made to sacrifice a 3rd of the space for unusable graphic eye-candy....it looks like the (g)raphic is more important than the (u) in the gui...
i'm sure n one would have problems zeroing in on those knobs, but bigger is better...in what looks like a shell type of arrangement i can see how the plug could not be made smaller, but in that case i think there would be a stronger argument for making the knobs (the actual user part) bigger
Don't like it ? Don't buy it. I think the GUI is both functionally and visually perfect.......it's for the iPad and if I owned one I'd buy that version is a heart beat.el-bo (formerly ebow) wrote:it's not about the knobs looking too small....i made a general comment about gui design which doesn't just apply to this plugin, nor is it something i would level at you as a company specificallyPeter - IK Multimedia wrote:So the knobs look too small, but my question was simply whether you were assessing the visual or the actual use of said knobs to come to that conclusion - and you answered my question.
