I don't have much of a thought out opinion on whether the U/I is particularly bad, but I don't like it. It seems like it's trying a bit too hard to be cool to fifteen year olds. It kind of reminds me of a mechatronic version of a distant cousin to Toxic Biohazard.Dasheesh wrote:DPhil wrote:When I first saw Hive as a screenshot I thought it has the best GUI of all u-He synths.

I can understand the u-He customer base doesn't like it that much. They probably got used to the "oldfashioned" hardware 3d style. I can tell you some of my friends discoverd u-He just because of Hive.Dasheesh wrote:Hive needs a better GUI as well. I like the set up, I really do, it's the color scheme that needs an update IMO.
well, to me the electric blue looks old, dated, last decade, and cheap. I find it hard to look at. You can do better. Hive needs something more emotive and modern and creative color wise. It needs beauty. The orange is is just... blah..... stop the orange already, might as well just say flat out you give up.
I think that this could be a solid b-sci-fi movie, or at least a shitty comic book. The alien Toxic Biohazard with his cooling fin encrusted phallus encounters the lovely (to him, beauty is in the eye of the beerholder) Hive with her hexagonal orifice and the two synths travel the sonic universe making music babies. I think that this show has to star Justin Bieber, Nicki Minaj, Lil Wayne, Carnage, and Thomas Dolby.
I don't know, this kind of creative work isn't my thing, maybe someone else could build on this?
