Just spent all thanksgiving making my first theme, mostly spent finding the thing I want to change or fixing colors that I messed up. This would be VERY helpful to know, great question.

My personal dark theme I have been tweaking for a while, takes some inspiration from pigments, but tried to stay true to the classic Vital colors, though the effects I prefer all one color. All to MY taste, but might appeal to others. Some details that I like, such as the waveforms being solid and visible on osc that are off (but still obviously off)

That purple gradient is sick! I love how this skin looks overall, nice and minimal while yet still popping out!

You can set the opacity to 0 and it will become a completely transparent color.

Very nice skin but I’m having trouble with it displaying 3D wavetables. Anybody else having the same issue?

Yeah, that dang 3d wave disappears on me, thought it was just me since it was happening on other themes too. Don’t know if I did something wrong, or if it’s just a kink

Aloha!
First shot at making some themes for Vital. I really dig Reason and thought someone else might dig these too. Making themes inspired by some of my favorite devices sounded fun. I’m sure I’ll miss a few settings in these but let me know and I’ll be happy to try and fix what I can.

Has anyone created a white theme that looks like this or is open to a commission to create one for Vital and Surge XT?

I know it’s a little late, but i could try to mess around and see what i can do. Ive never used surge so ill put that one to the side but i could try making a vital skin like the image. Ill keep you posted in the discord server as to the progress.
