Color Themes For Renoise

You’ll be blind before you get caught. :point_up:
I won’t ask why you were looking for a Windows 95 inspired theme in 2023… Good luck!

If you want to add to the subterfuge, you could replace the renoise logos/banners with MS logos in the skins folder :wink:

Short answer: I’m in public service and the computers are old as fuck :sweat_smile:

By the way, I’m already blind of one eye. I hope I don’t ruin the other one too :laughing:

Oh, these are getting better and better. I hate Windows so much, but it really looks like the software(s) I used so many years ago :smiley:

Funny, i’d never thought I’ll have a nostalgia for software GUI styles and experiences - I miss the minimal brutalism of Windows 98/Me/2000 or XP without the skins. :wink:

Pantone Extended Gamut Palette extracted from the Windows95 screenshot posted earlier in the thread. May come in handy for refining the Office Stealth Theme. If anyone wants, I can generate Pantone palettes from each of the 5 colors to expand the overall palette. I might try my hand at making this theme, myself, but for now this is what I am able to contribute.

Anybody knows of a TR-909 theme? 80’s grey and orange would be supercool :slight_smile:

Not many colors on the TR-909. Attached is a palette extracted from an image of a TR-909. I’m not great with making themes, so if anyone wants to take a stab at it, this should offer a good starting point. (The 2 red tones are the display; unlit is darker, lit is lighter)

Yooo thanks a lot for contributing!

Renoise at the office, baby! MS Excel stealth beat making!

Took a stab at making this theme. The only thing I didn’t change are the track colors, which are currently set to the new stock “Hybrid” theme’s track colors. The VU Meter uses the Windows 95 logo colors.

Re-tooled the reds and made points in the Automation View red instead of Orange. I wanted to better follow the theme of the device as well as the idea that some parts would be more like a display with an unlit/lit state.

Omg. Electribe ESX-1 and EMX-1 are my favorite hardware pieces!

I’d love a blue version for the EMX-1.

A Global Hue Shift in the Theme Tab in Preferences might get you a blue version without having to modify much else

EDIT: I did it so you don’t have to (eyeballed the hue shift from a Wikipedia picture of an EMX-1 with a lot of flash glare) Probably has several elements that turned out horribly and require manual editing, but its a starting point.

Updated Macrohard Windows 95 Theme. Worked in that horribly wonderful Teal that is terribly nostalgia inducing. 100% ripped out the default Track colors and VOL/DLY/PAN/etc. colors from the default Redux Gray theme. They worked so I stoled them.

I find this theme rather easy on the eyes. I also consider this the Final version.
