i own sylenth1, and now dune. 2 great synths (S1 has been my go-to for a while; am just getting in to dune). but...
the GUI on sylenth1 is...ugly. very ugly LOL. dune looks good, but...i LIKE changing things up (i've customized Logic, for example). so...searched the web, found skins for both apps. THEN customized them further, to suit my own aesthetic. am NOT doing anything EXCEPT changing the look of things (i.e. no more wood paneling on sylenth1!) it's great fun, and both look great (to me at least). just sharing.

I really like the first, very AAS looking, and very clear/ easy on the eyes.
Not so keen on the 2nd, though you did a nice job. Too many knobs and looks like Dune. ----  |

maybe a stupid question but how do you change them? dune comes a single dll i guess i'm missing something. |

am on a mac...
so, i made a copy of the AU plugin (as a backup) first. control-clicked on the plugin so i can view the resources folder. then played with the MAIN GUI image(s) for each synth in photoshop (which LOL, i also own). nothing more than that. the mods are easy to google; the tweaks i made did it for me (i.e. killing the wood paneling on sylenth1, and changing the keyboard to black keys). deepening the color on dune, a few other tweaks. |

i should probably TRY the dune GUI on sylenth1 (or, for example, an omnisphere GUI on dune...would make it look REAL elegant and expensive...)

no probs. there are lots of tools to extract bits out of a dll around but was hoping that there's a "recommended" tool for that  |

Nice Sylenth1 skin FisherKing 
Possibly the best I've seen so far 
Would you be so kind to share the resources folder of Sylenth1.component with us ? Thanks |
