Oh, and something interesting about skinning: it will be possibile to make "retina" compatible skins with your new UI framework?

Anyway can't wait for it!

They are Retina-ready for most parts.

I'll just say: Wait and see.

I had to fake the shadows in Photoshop because my 3D-renderer is a tad to slow. We'll have full control over all those nuances in a few weeks, so the GUI you see now is rather preliminary and needs tweaking.

While it may look unfamiliar, we spent weeks (!) on the layout alone. I think it has become absolutely brilliant and a huge step ahead of the alpha version.

FX and voice control are on the Tweaks page.

Later,

You killed Bazille

Not to my taste, especially the knobs. Sorry.

i thought the same thing....loved the previous bazille GUI much more.
but like other u-he products the GUI will be skinnable so no biggie.(i bet one of the first skinned GUIs will be "original bazille")
the 3d render though on the first page looked super amazing...don't know why that didn't translate in an equally stunning GUI.

anyway it will all be about the sound for me (if it has an improved filter then it's a must buy for me, if not not. ).

I really like the new GUI. The module layout seems more logical too. Subtle differences I know, but still.
Urs, will there be some kind of Divine mode for Bazille ? Bazilline ?

No matter the CPU hit, I've become addicted to that kind of insane quality option.

Not yet, but we'll see... the tweaks page is still a mess... I'll certainly need those two more months...

Afraid to say I much prefer the old Bazille GUI too, the whole 3D hardware look works for Diva and ACE, but the flat more utilitarian look fits more with Bazilles concept I think.

Plus it was just darn lovely.

Also reminds me of this

The new layout does seem a lot more intuitive.

I can't believe I failed to realize how cool Bazille actually is until now...
I mean, I always had a good impression about it and kinda liked it... but now I'm beginning fall in love!

Sounds great, can't believe how easy it is to get and modify timbres + I love flexible modulation options!

Urs, can I just pay you now, so that I won't waste the money until the release?

I also like the look and feel of the alpha version... but I bet Urs will work on the new one to get it even better!

Wishing Urs and the u-he team a good time @ the MMesse!

I for one am immensely attracted to Bazille. Though I think that the new knobs looks a tad busy, but only on the lighter "elevated" area. To me, at the bottom darker area (where multiplex is the only example), there is a definitely better contrast to the knobs, which I think fit them better.

I just downloaded Bazille for the first time. AFter looking at the alpha Gui and the fantastic GUI above, might I suggest that some may have just gotten accustomed to the older GUI?

You're probably right: no idea of vexation for designers, it's been almost two years that I try with .

Really deftly refined and It feels maybe more familiar, certainly more navigable and readable, to me.

The new GUI is much better than alpha version. Much more logical.

Small fonts? Where? Everything is perfectly legible.

One thing I'm not fond of is the location of LFO 2 label - if u-he logo wasn't as big it could've been placed symmetrically to LFO 1 label, it would make more sense. Also seems like Env 3 Velocity label is a bit misplaced

And "Semitones" option barely fits in the rounded rectangle frame below the knob - either make the frame wider or make it say "Semi" or something.
