i dont know if its a bug but its strage :)
Me, too. It takes lots of mouse clicking to get Diva to recognize that I want to manipulate the mod, not the frequency or resonance...
Modulation area issue is fixed in v1.1. So please update and see how it works now. :pray:

also... for some reason, the divider line (underneath the text) towards the top of the "Uhbie" Filter sits a little higher than the others. can/will this be fixed?
About Uhbie line: definitely my lazy work. should be fixed in the next version.
On LFOs' position: I took a look at synths and now I see. Juno 60, Jupiter 8, Moog Voyager, OB-8...All these have their LFOs in the left.

Yet I want to avoid keeping 2 styles in parallel, for it would take double time to update the contents. (including trial version, I have to manage 4 versions, & if I'd release the RED version...8!)

So I have to chose one... and I suppose your opinion is majority.

oh wow, that would be awesome if you could do that. i really think it would look much better and may actually be easier to work with. i really love the look of this, it totally makes me want to buy/use Diva again.

i also really appreciate the fact that you re-designed/simplified the look of the filter modules. i've always felt that they weren't very accurate models of the filters they're supposed to look like, so a more "generic" design is actually quite fitting. they all just seem like "U-he analog style" filters to me, though i really like the Uhbie filter. (i only have hands-on experience with the Juno-60 and 106, but that filter model doesn't really make me feel like i'm using a Juno filter. certainly not like the U-NO-LX or even PG-8X filters totally have that Roland sound/feel.) whether they actually sound like them or not, the designs of the oscillator modules are obviously quite inspired by certain synths, so i'm really glad that you decided to keep the visual design of those pretty much as they were.

man, i just can't get over how nicely designed this AIKO skin is. i almost can't believe it. (the Volta skin is great too, but something about this one just seems prefect.) am i right in guessing that this can be used with the demo version of Diva as well? not sure when i'll get around to buying it again, but i plan on buying this skin as soon as i can.

"Less color" is one of the demo restrictions. It's all orange in the full version.
The text position is... my imperfection. I'll fix that. Thanks!

Got it, but 'Less color' it's a bit ambiguous.

:oops: Any holidays sale for the skin?

Bought it yesterday and installed skin and presets without problems.

The skin is beautiful, less character than the original but so much more accessible! I personally like the industrial charm a lot. I think with your skin I can really digging into Diva and not only edit presets.

And the included presets are more than a welcome addition. Really good and useful sounds.

Thank you!

IMO it's the best skin for Diva. Big ups, plugmon!

I just bought your skin, really nice work!
I can't lie to you about your chances, but... you have my sympathies.

I recently bought this skin, and I have to say, it really is amazing. Great work.

As others have said, the one thing I would like is to have the LFOs on the left.

Other than that, it is a brilliant design. Especially the ease of modulation and easy access to the trimmers panel.

Post

This skin is excellent, so different to the original.
I'm still using the demo version but I'll probably buy it.

How is the update coming along?
I see 8 points mentioned, on the to-do list.

I wish it had just a bit more colour. The overall colour scheme is very similar to Cubase 8.
I guess we can change the background ourselves but it looks like it's quite a few png's that needs to be changed.

Post

New update out! LFO's moved to the left, among other things!

I'm not plugmon, but I thought I'd notify you guys since the LFO thing has been requested a lot and I'm excited about the change.

Post

Thanks, amazing skin!!

HQ and Ring switches are swapped in digital oscillator and numbers on triple osc are still not properly aligned.

Everything else works fine. I'm definately moving LFO's to the right, it makes more sense to have all modulation sources on one place.

Had to buy this after getting MM for Zebra2. Very nice work!

All bugs are ironed out? Been waiting for the beta phase to be over so I can get this one. Fantastic job.

Been using it as my main Diva skin since September without problems and I use Diva quite a bit ! There shouldn't be any issues with using it as it currently stands :)
