Attracks pilot Posted November 12, 2014 Share Posted November 12, 2014 Hi apricotandpearjam, You're not the only one wanting the LP9 colours back. There were a lot of questions earlier on this subject. Unfortunately, up to the current version of LPX, there is no way to make the colours lighter (only darker). You can check it out by this link: http://logicxinterfaces.wordpress.com/2013/08/20/tune-your-color-picker-a-tool-template/ Good luck, AP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danyg Posted December 5, 2014 Share Posted December 5, 2014 I serached these 20 pages but I can't find it... I went to: /Applications/Logic Pro X.app/Contents/Frameworks/MAResources.framework/Versions/A/Resources/MAResourcesMapping.plist ... but I can't find the default mixer color entry for new tracks, auxes, busses and instruments. (I want to change the standard blue and green Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ploki Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 can you "hack" logic into using @2x resources for its stock plugins? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ploki Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 work in progress, a new EXS24 theme. Its done in Illustrator so its retina-ready, if I could only force retina graphic rendering edit: added how it would look in retina, from illustrator.

Attracks pilot Posted January 9, 2015 Share Posted January 9, 2015 Excellent job! That's what we are waiting for!!! Cheers, AP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ploki Posted January 11, 2015 Share Posted January 11, 2015 glad you like it! I'll upload it once its done. I have a few buttons and envelope to finish. here's some progress update. I dig that it looks very logicky, but I hate that I succumbed to skeoumorphism. I really prefer flat design myself... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Nahmani Posted January 11, 2015 Share Posted January 11, 2015 I'll upload it once its done. Please do! Really nice job. I can see what you've done (which is really nice) and what you haven't (which now looks out of place). Can't wait to see the end result.

Ploki Posted January 13, 2015 Share Posted January 13, 2015 Here i am! version of the skin (if I fix something) is hidden behind Keyboard mode buttons (can't be seen while in use, only on the PNG) I also did a retina mockup quickly in illustrator. Didn't want to waste my time on it too much (some items are misplaced) but it looks amazing. I wish i could somehow enable retina mode. It's a .rar archive. Just unpack and replace LPX.app>Contents>Plugins>exs24.res>Contents>Resources I wasted around 30-40 hours on this, i hope you enjoy it! exs24_lpx.rar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bostonia Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 To be clear. i am trying to make the colour pallete of LPX look more like L9. Its mainly the second line down that I'm after (pastel shades). If someone can give me the code for this i will pay them. Ditto. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's hardcoded into the program. (It can be changed a little bit in the hue values but it does not amount to much) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bostonia Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 Thanx Kim, Yeah .. I know. Unfortunately. Everything is so ridiculously dark. I'm a Logic user since the v.1.6 (1993) ... but I'm sitting the LPX out. Working in LP9 and PT in the meantime. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bostonia Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 I did. Some time ago. I produced a lot of projects using this application ... and know it very well too. But I feel like the new Logic designers prefer "cool" looks instead of practical usability and substance. If they don't revise their approach, LPX is the last Logic I've purchased. Unfortunately.

guavadude Posted January 22, 2015 Share Posted January 22, 2015 So I was just getting used to a new GUI but now I'm guessing with the 10.1 update, I need to wait until the GUIs are updated for the new version. Is that right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Attracks pilot Posted January 22, 2015 Share Posted January 22, 2015 Yep! But most likely most of the themes are broken in 10.1. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Attracks pilot Posted January 22, 2015 Share Posted January 22, 2015 I've tried the mods (line-by-line) from ru2b12's Bright Green Theme as well as my own; including the PlugIn-mods. Everything works fine; apart from the nasty OK-button while starting up. I managed to turn that one into green as well... but I lost that mod. :face palm: And since LPX 10.1 introduced some extra icons, my custom icons are a bit of a mess. But I'll get that sorted later on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ploki Posted January 22, 2015 Share Posted January 22, 2015 my EXS mod is still rocking! means they haven't touched EXS. i hope they touch EXS someday soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Attracks pilot Posted January 22, 2015 Share Posted January 22, 2015 Same for me. Also Visual Equalizer and UltraBeat are not touched. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
On The Swarm Posted January 22, 2015 Share Posted January 22, 2015 what about the new fonts and power button on the plugins? i'd like to keep those with my theme Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Juss Posted January 24, 2015 Share Posted January 24, 2015 Collected information on updated themes & download links: https://logicxinterfaces.wordpress.com/tag/10-1/ If you have a 10.1 updated theme and you would want me to post it on the blog, contact me ("Jus") at Gearslutz. Please send me screenshots and a download link (Dropbox/Copy.com preferred). Do not upload all the Resources, just the modified images and MAResourcesmapping.plist. Thanx.

question Posted February 3, 2015 Share Posted February 3, 2015 I am not sure if I overlooked this in the thread, but there IS an option to make the background of the piano-roll light. Go to: Preferences-Display-Editors, and check "Bright Background". It is global, so all Logic projects will automatically have the bright background in the Piano Roll. Hope this helps. I was unable to make the Main window lighter (in 10.1) using Juss's mod. There seems to be a different type of plist file in the resources folder. Juss says "Drag the new plist into the resource folder and when asked, press replace". "Replace" does not appear because the plist folder in Logic 10.1 has a different name. Since I don't know much about how all of these resource files interact, I decided not to experiment. Anyone know how to get Juss's light arrange window mod to work in 10.1? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Juss Posted February 8, 2015 Share Posted February 8, 2015 mmmm no, it seems you have been messsing with a wrong Resources folder. Take a look at the pic to find the right one.

screenset99 Posted February 20, 2015 Share Posted February 20, 2015 Not sure of this is the right place to post but just wondering if anyone knows how to change the color of selected regions in logic x? In previous versions the selected regions would have a black outline but now in logic x the selected regions (and notes) become a lighter color. I've tried digging around in the plist with Xcode but haven't had any success Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Juss Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 Probably not possible, I haven't seen anyone mentioning or modifying it. But if it is, I would love to know it. Too bright to my taste (especially on dark background, though I use a brighter one). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
