No problem

Transferring the L6 theme to Molot on the other hand turned out to be one, so unfortunately i had to scrap the whole thing. Why: Because in Molot you can select between gain reduction and input signal metering, which means unless you make an analog meter with a needle (as in the original skin) you would need at least 2 different images for the 2 different metering modes since you cannot do both with only one. (And thats only the meter, it also turns out that almost everything else that defined the L6 look (like the splits and stands) couldnt be applied due to lack of space either so i just had to accept that it simply doesnt work out.)

Im thinking of doing the smaller UI variant of L6 instead...

This is simply Phuckin astounding

(Now off I go to check my theory, that looks influence the way that I perceive the sound...

EDIT:

This package makes it VERY hard to listen with the ears...

Awesome work! Did you tried contacting the dev so it can include them directly?

No, i never do that because i never know how theyd react and the last thing i want is to get on anyones nerves.

Vlad also is already aware of the images anyway, he was one of the first to post in this thread.

Vlad seems like a cool guy, perhaps he could include them... or break out the GUI outside of the DLL so it's easier to change the skins...

That would be most cool indeed.

Especially if the file that contains the actual UI structure was editable as well, because then you could also specify sizes and positions and any layout and look would be possible.

I really like this skin! One thing bothers me though. The hammer and sickle symbol is a symbol of a deadly regime which was responsible for the deaths of over 100 million people - more than any other regime in history. You wouldn't think of a swastika as a neutral symbol and put it in a skin, would you? I can understand that this symbolism might not have such a strong connotation in parts of the world not directly touched by the communism, but in countries which experienced communism, the swastika and the hammer and sickle symbols are considered equally inappropriate. As a national of a former eastern block country I would feel better not having to look at this symbol when making music and I'm sure there is much more to Russia than being a totalitarian state in the past. Peace!

Another stunning work of art from ENV1 ! This is a great skin for Limiter 6 but it always bothers me to hack the .dll. Have you contacted the developers to see if they will offer an officially sanctioned version for download from their site ?

At any rate thanks again for sharing your hard work and talents !

EDIT: Oooops I see someone has already asked about contacting the developer...........

Anyway I was just trying Limiter 6 (32 bit version) in Orion and I'm getting HUGE denormals problems.....if left to sit idle on the master the CPU will rise until it shuts down Orion's engine.

I'll have to try in Reaper to see if it happens there as well..........(WinXp Q6600)

How about putting NATO svastika for a change? They are killing millions of people right now.

The hammer and sickle symbol is a symbol of working class people, not Stalin..
You can solve the problem with Photoshop and clone tool like I did.

So does cancer. Have you got something to say about that?
I'm not looking for a different symbol, I'd rather have no symbol at all.

And swastika is a Hinduism and Buddhism symbol. What's your point?
Those "working class people" are responsible for the death of millions.

Okay, okay, I'll build binary version with this skin in a couple of days. Also I have fix for denormals, which wasn't released yet and I can include it too.

I see no problems with symbolic. The hammer and sickle symbol is really a traditional symbol of working class (like keyboard and mouse)

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hammer_and_sickle

According to wikipedia this symbol is banned in Hungary, Lithuania and Moldova and thus reskinned version must not be used in these countries.

yes please, and don't forget to call it : "Limiter No.6 Gladiators Edition"

Kidding aside though, i can of course provide BGs without the H&S. If you (Vlad) want such a symbol-less BG for the official DLL just contact me a day before you compile and let me know which of the 4 variants you need. (A or B, Stands or No Stands.) Anything else, just let me know.
