Just installed it. Very impressive.

Hope you don't think we all take this for granted - I think it's pretty clear how many hours went into the development of this theme.

Your hard work is appreciated.

Amazing theme, thank you sir! My only gripe is that on the default TCP layout I really feel like the placement of the Record Monitoring and the Sends and Receives buttons should be switched around.

Very Nice! Thank You Nick.
Here's one suggestion. The volume label on the tcp is a little hard to see when selected.

Thanks, Wyatt

Just tried the theme and it looks great, very good work!
I hope I'm not coming on too strongly by suggesting another layout in the MCP.

For me the fader throw could be longer, while not taking more space as the extended layouts do, so here's a proposal:


I don't know if this is even possible, but would be quite practical.

I have tried it! But this is impossible, because of it:

I mean there not enough of the free space to accommodate this two blocks of the buttons...

I will think what I can do...

But, hold on! I do not have any free "slots" for such layouts in the MCP.

What do you mean by this Nick ?
Is there still a limit to how many layouts a theme can have ?
If so that needs sorting before release by the devs

Yes, exactly! Only 10 subfoldered layouts for the TCP and MCP may be present in a theme.

Default VU meters

I`ve played around with the theme and I really like it with one exception: The brown top on all the vu.meters, which indeed desturbs my eye.
I´ve not managed to find a way to change this to another (black it might be) color but with no luck.
Anybody who can help me on this ?

I like it too. I always felt the faders seemed a little short.

Hi everyone,

I'm not sure if this was resolved but how can I get the mixer fader to look like the one on the right where the volume meter goes the whole length of the section? Also, similarly I like having the volume meter across the entire bottom of the TCP section (I'm not sure if TCP is the correct term, the same thing as the mixer but on the top half of the screen that lines up with each respective track). The theme is amazing, I just don't like the scrunched up volume meters. It's like four pixels from no volume to full volume. Thanks!
Matt

Have I missed something?

I just installed Reaper on my rebuilt system and dragged the Rado theme into reaper then nothing happens except the sequencer colour changes. It still looks like the Reaper Classic theme.

I tried a different v4 theme and that worked.

Do I have to install Rado a different way?
Thanks
David

I just tried an older version of Rado v4 and that worked. However the newest version from 27th April doesn't.

This is how it looks if I drag the theme into Reaper

I tried that and Rado doesn't appear in any of the drop down boxes. Don't get it.

I've redownloaded the theme and Reaper a few times still no show. :\
I'm not sure what i'm doing wrong as all other themes i've downloaded have worked fine.

Have you followed the instructions I provided in post #493?

*edit*

WTF! Totally wrong link, no idea how that happened!

Try this?

Be careful following those color toolbar install instructions, parts at least are obsolete:

BTW ED's color toolbar doesn't require python any more either. That leaves Fingers' grooves...

Default Rado 4 menu set problem

I've downloaded and installed the new Rado theme set. I do however have a problem getting the custom menu actions to work. I've imported them via the actions menu, but I don't see them in there.

Anyone know where I am going wrong. Most of the menu items are working only those with custom actions aren't. Like ie. size of the tracks in the mixer, the freeze unfreeze function.

I believe you may have to install Python (maybe not).

The best place for this question would be in the RADO thread in the Themes forum.

Mods?

First, thanks for all your hard work, Nick. I used RADO v3 and now I'm using RADO v4. Great work to say the least.

I have a request for a mixer panel track layout. Would it be possible for a future version to include a wide layout like this (Guitar is wide, Reverb and Bass are standard):



With something like this, we can have a key combo that switches selected tracks to the wide layout and another key combo that switches to the standard layout. Awesome for workflow. Janne4Universe has this layout and it's very helpful.

Thanks for the great theme.
