Presswerk nitro is now on patchlib!

Old nitro post:

I created a new skin for Presswerk designed for speed and straight-forward operation.

Features:
- All easy modes share the skin with the main view.
- GUI is smaller than the original and more condensed for shorter mouse movement >> faster operation.
- All metering is linear and is shared across all modes.
- Channel link is visible and accessible in all easy modes, so is m/s.
- Every dual-channel parameter can be controlled WITHOUT switching channels on marked "zones". Meaning you can adjust Sides or Right side without switching views. Again, aimed to make navigating faster.
- Input level around the threshold knob. Threshold sliders on the meters are also clickable/draggable.
- 100% retina ready (as opposed to a few knobs in the original he he)

Known bugs:
- detection delay slider is fiddly. for some reason, detection delay doesn't play well with slider control. I already had the layout done so i couldn't fit another knob there, so i just left it as it is.

GUI labels have been stripped to minimum so it's almost a necessity that you already know your way around Presswerk.

color scheme is probably... an acquired taste

Glad you like it! i'm working on a flatter variant of the same compact layout - but due date is whenever

Agreed - That 'flatter' version looks great, would definitely use that as my default theme !

the flatter variant is almost ready for download.
i've reworked the meters so round threshold meter is actually up to scale and gave it a splash of neomorphism.
The main meter was also reworked in a manner that GR and levels now fit on the same scale (top 12dB and bottom 12dB is small LEDs).
Also cleaned the interface a bit up, reworked the layout a little.
(the original tacky design won't be updated)

it looks super-sharp and is great for smaller screens

edit:
i'll just drop a temporary link here if anyone wants to give it a spin. Be sure to move the font "gravity" to Library>u-he>Presswerk>Fonts, or it won't work unfortunately.

That’s lovely!
Congrats!

thank you

just posted the link. It's one AM here so i might have missed something, but most of stuff should work as far as i tested.
All controls can still be grabbed by the ring markings in unlinked mode, and knobs can still be clicked on the LEDS beneath them, but i deleted the "zone" graphics because they were too much and cluttered the screen.

really nice! thanks for sharing. some considerations.. the HG button becomes a white blur when activated. drive/warmth/dynamics are blurred unless i zoom way in. on 2018 macbook pro. might just be the letters being too close together? idk.. i'm shit at design.

i like this though. it's a nice clean alternate skin. nice color choices.
