Hello

I'm designing a new GUI for a synth and am wondering what you guys find easy to work with for hours on end?

Do you have any preferences regarding colour combinations and saturation levels?

Any examples of good/bad gui's would be cool too!

Thanks

Pat

i dont know about others, but i quite like something fesh, bright and light. i find i get bored of really bright colours as wellas tehm hurting my eyes after a bit, the same with darker ones, tehy get really dull and boring after a little while

for example i could look at albino for hours. also if you were to include like some real wood type effect or something, thats always easy on the eye. well imo anyway

Baby shit green
Poo stain yellow
Cobalt blue
Bluish grey
Deep orange
Gun metal ( it's sort of bluish grey)
Fisher Price colour scheme would be good too

blue

This!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Letting the user pick would be the best option.

I personally prefer shades of dark green.

Just make some skins to go along with it in a array of different colours

I find FM8/Octopus the easiest I work in couple of nice shades of blue, also I like pale green shades(like if FM8 was made green) just please, stay away from loads of black

you should look at this theory.

you may believe it or not.


If it is true, Blue is probably the easiest to work in, cause it gives you confidence & faith, its always nice to have white in there

For staring any length of time, black backgrounds with white text (or main elements) are significantly less straining on the eyes. I think any really dark backgrounds work though.

And me. Please give it some wooden ends!

I say light greys, mixed in with some greens or blues perhaps. I like the look of Reasons devices, like a early 80's version of futureistic. You cant go wrong with something like that. I hate the modern alien futuristic look with all the bubble like curves n stuff. Allegedly of course.
