Thank you thank you thank you!!! I use this plugin all the time, one of my "secret weapons", if you will. But I HATE the skin. I'll be using this faster than you can say che.........ok, done!

Hi, again
I hadn't seen your reply.

Yes, if you don't mind and if it is not too time-eater, i would happily take it :)
And, in fact, the white on red text is the easiest to read, so bigger text for knobbies would be just perfect i guess.

I really like the overall colorscheme, and the litte ")" next to the knobs.
I also like the way the knobs are gathered (even if some might be too close ?).

One thing I noticed is the knobs are really steppy. I don't think 31 frames is enough for an animation strip. I usually go for something >= 100 when making animation strips for knobs. No big deal really, just something I noticed.

Thanks for the feedback!

A new file is downloadable in the first post.
-bigger text for knoblabels (quickfix so it might be improved later)
-better knob rendering, upped the frames to 124.

Thanks a lot for your great work, much better now with the bigger text and better knob rendering! Now if you could make the three displays in the GUI brighter, it would be perfect IMO, if this is not to much to ask?

Thanks again, Cheers

You mean both the grey and the red or just the grey background?

Yes,i like the bigger text better. Thanks.

I'd have a more suggestions to submit to debate, if you're after such stuff :
- Did you try non-italic text ? It might improve readability...
- What about gathering a bit more the section to increase the overall plugin structure's readability ? I mean, in example : making the filter section more compact (grouping more the filter-related knobs, and making the whole filter section a bit more far from the "rate" section, and such things).

These suggestions comes now, as your GUI has improved my comprehension of that plugin i almost forgot, and now i am discovering new stuff ;)

thanks a lot - this is one of my favourite free VSTs too! Beautiful skin.

I mean the red in the three displays (the one in the center with the moving dots and the two lower ones), it's hard to see what's displayed, because the contrast is too low.

I have merged the existing .txt manual with the LF skin on a convenient PDF, if anyone is interested :
