Unempty Vintage is a custom skin suite for Samplitude (version 8 and up), loosely inspired by various vintage consoles and studio gear. It's my first set of skins for Samplitude, with several more are sure to follow.

My main focus for this skin design was ergonomics and having a bit of fun, in a recognizable shade of blue, with large faders, giant "punchable" industrial-style push buttons that light up, and a separate meter bridge on top. It should also be optimized for low-light usage, since the typical control room usually is rather dark.

In other words, interface elements often found on high-end equipment and nuclear submarines.

Installing and Usage

Unpack the contents of the zip file in the Bitmaps directory, located directly in the main Samplitude directory. Unempty Vintage should show up in the skin menu when clicking the top left window icon of the mixer and/or VIP window.
