To install on Windows, just put the “Cosmic” folder in your: C:\ProgramData\Sonic Academy\ANA 2\GUI\ Then launch ANA2, and in the “Settings, Select Skin” drop down menu, choose Cosmic. It’s available in all sizes, but still very unfinished as only the “Main Skin” has been changed thus far. I am unsure how to install on a MAC though, and if anyone knows, please post it here for everyone. It would be kindly appreciated.
Oh and also, to make this I have to change the image properties from “Index Color” to “RGB” mode, so if it doesnt work, or looks wonky, that might be why. If anyone decides to give it a go, please let me know if it works so I can continue creating more, and probably finishing this one up.
I’ve actually been using this skin while sound designing, as it’s awesome watching Wavetables move through space lol
Buttons are now 3D and glow “ANA Blue” when they are on, including FX buttons, brightness reduction within nebular displays, and of course more nebula within alternate FX and browser panels, along with the new “Cosmic” logo to mention a few things …Still working on it
Hey guys, sorry I haven’t updated in a long time. Just wanted to let everyone interested I haven’t died, just had a break in development with skin, wavetable, and preset creation due to personal time being taken. I became a foster parent, and it’s taken awhile to adjust my “time management”. I’m slowly getting my schedule back, and will update in a bit. Until then, just checking in Hope you are all having a great summer
Hi everyone. Here is an update to the first version I posted which includes Buttons now 3D and glow “ANA Blue” when they are on, including FX buttons, brightness reduction within nebular displays, and of course more nebula within alternate FX and browser panels, along with the new “Cosmic” logo. Not much more to go, but this is also part of a much larger project I had started awhile back. which will include 109 handcrafted morphable wavetables, and 27 handcrafted standard waves, as well as 33 (so far), new Sample waves, many created by Luftrum Sound Design (with permission of course), and a new Ambient Sound Bank. Here is a link to the GUI Update, I hope you enjoy
2 - Once done, just open an instance of ANA 2 and click the “wheel” icon above ‘Menu’ to access settings and use the ‘SKIN SELECT’ drop down menu to see & load your new custom skin.
Special thanks to Phil Johnston for crafting the awesome retro knobs I edited and used to make a unique FX panel layout, and Tekalight for the Mac instructions, cause I’m clueless when it comes to Mac’s lol. Let me know what you all think, and if there are any bugs, or even suggestions. Grab it here:
I recon that the skin itself is very great indeed, but that way of putting their brand logo on everything…
I’ll probably will tweak it for my personal use, just a psychological thing, LOL
But yep, who ever designed that skin did a pretty good job !
EDIT : Well, actually they did keep S.A Logo on the skin, good point Slate ! But they removed it from this advertising Pic…
