@INTRANCER Please don't take to heart too much, but i'd agree with Dombaeb. I don't see how this is bettering what is already there.

If i think about it, it's almost funny how they couldn't let the distinctive layout idea go when they reworked the design for v2. Somehow insisting on it. I suspect the designer had some doubts while doing it.

Please don't get me wrong i think u-he designs are generally of high quality and Hive is perfectly usable as is.

So no disrespect here, just some reflections and a bit of fun doing so.

@Intrancer Sorry, i'm afraid i can't merge/delete them. At least they all address different things (kinda).

Looks cool but I’d try to put the sub controls and phase controls in a grey area and not the dashboard looking area. It seems to separated from it’s primary oscillator.

How does it compare to Hive2?

That's too bad. The one thing I'm missing most is some visual indication whether and how a parameter is modulated, directly on the knob / place where it happens, as some other synths do. But I assume there were limits to that, that's why you put a non-animated summary of the modulation matrix in the Izmo Hive 2 skin?

No different from Propellerheads forum of 10 years ago really, so I pretty much half expect it, or perhaps even more so on KVR. It doesn't phase me or de-motivate me though, it's quite the opposite in effect. I'm not scared to design outside the box and make it public.

That's the right mindset. Anyone who takes that effort to learn a skin system, design and goes through the (really not small) effort to do something like this gets my props. Also, there's just no way to do something that everyone will like. And people who don't like something are usually the most vocal about it.
