Feature Request (Design)

[ISP]

Hello MeldaProduction!

I have a small feature request that will make all your great sounding plugins even better

What about to redesign upper (presets, random, settings) buttons? They looks not so great as overall design of the plugins imho. Maybe make it 2D and more basic? This 3D bumped design is not good. All the rest is looking good except this buttons
Well i know the main thing is all about sounds, but you're succeed with it already so maybe spend some time on the way it looks as well?

Thanks in advance!

+1 I like the general design of Mdrummer but the buttons are not so cool.
Please just some flat buttons

[MeldaProduction]

Hey folks, well, honestly this surprised me quite a lot . I kinda like the 3D buttons and even if I wouldn't I don't think it would be such a big deal . It's based on actual style, so who knows, maybe we'll create some flat style for flat people (kidding of course)

[Simon Posford]

Thanks for to think it!
Actual style tend to have all 3d but not only just look at lableton live

But the better 'll be to have the possibility to made our own skins i have seen in this forum a post about the ability to skins the plug-ins with png.
If it 'll possible i 'll be glad to make a skin for this great soft:)
Like these ones that i have do in FLAT mode:D

By the way i love you're software (i have bought the large version:)
But to be honestly i didn't use the factory sound bank...

[MeldaProduction]

Well thanks Simon
If you want to try making a skin, be my guest . The editor is available at

http://www.meldaproduction.com/download ... editor.zip

But be careful, it is much much more complicated than just a few images. Actually I believe our styling engine is the most complicated in the world

Oo amasing this sdk is simply perfect and it seems pretty easy to use.
It took me 2 minutes for to have my favourites flat buttons XD.
ISP You must try it!
I 'll make very soon a flat version of the default gui and then a more advanced version with custom pictures.
So for now here's a screenshot with flat buttons:


BIG THANKS for sharing this amazing tool i think u must put in the download section of the meldaproduction website so users 'll share other skins and it 'll be a good advertasing for the soft think about live skin for live users or tracktion skin or logic or whatever^^.

[MeldaProduction]

Thanks Simon!
Actually it was on the website for some time, but it looked like people don't really know how to use it, because actually it is very very complicated as you know . But seems that from time to time engineers like you come by .

RE I have played a little with the skin editor.
So i have removed all the 3d in mdrummer and dropped the text shadow (my eyes no more cry).
It was just for to be familiar with the soft and see what is skinnable (well it seems all is skinnable ^^)
so it's just a test.
here the result:

Interesting!

I have been demo'ing Mdrummer, and it's fantastic! I will be purchasing soon.

Simon, I really like the version with flat buttons as well. Quality piece of software with user involvement. Sweet!

[Simon Posford]

Thx lazos yes Mdrummer is really good tool for all the drums related parts.If you purchase it you 'll don't regreat it!
But the factory sounds are good for punchy tracks(certainly one of the most punchy kits) but i really don't like them but anyway mdrummer can handle many format and with a good kit he is amazing!
Thx for the kinds words about my skin but it's what just a try with just some clicking ^^.
I plan to release a pure flat style skin.

Ps: sorry all for my english it's not my native country:)
