But when you install v2 it always reinstalls the banks AFAIK ?

OK so rename the 1.5 banks then.

Now why didn't I think of that

Oooh, so that's the deal with the preset banks, so we can still use the old obxd banks and presets in the new version of OBXD - just not the other way round ?

Hi DiscoDSP, thanks for your continuous work on this!

I just downloaded the v2.1 release and I have a comment (not necessary a problem) about the default theme. Im using Windows scaling at 150% and the labels look blurry (knobs are blurry as well, buttons look sharp to me). However main@2x.png looks sharp, so i'm guessing is related to the downscaling algorithm? Anyway, if this helps I'm attaching a comparison between the actual GUI inside FL Studio and the PNG (downscaled by the native W10 image viewer, I just adjusted the width of the app until it was close to the GUI inside de DAW).

Again, this is not a complaint, just posting how it looks on my end.

This is correct, the new windows version is now upscaling the lowres image , the previous build was downscaling the Hires image, George decided to do it like this

I also think it was better before, but HiDPI scaling forcing option is supposed to happen.

Yeah, I wasn't a fan of this approach either, but it's how it's **supposed** to work. The prior versions were technically broken. Someone managed to convince George there were less artifacts this way. Disagree.

If a "Force HiDPI" option is added, you'll have the option of going back to the old way.

Still free. You have the option to pay if you'd like. Just go to the page and click the download links.

I wish we could convince ENV1 to make a skin for OBXd.

I'll pass on this update since I only edited the 2x image.

EvilDragon · Post by **EvilDragon** » Wed Aug 12, 2020 5:11 pm

You can easily convert it to half the size tho

Teksonik · Post by **Teksonik** » Wed Aug 12, 2020 6:23 pm

I could but how would it look with up-scaling the small compared to down-scaling the large ?

EvilDragon · Post by **EvilDragon** » Wed Aug 12, 2020 6:30 pm

Depends on the algorithm used. Lanczos got your back. What's your OS scaling set to, tho?
