yes, but make sure you keep the original resolution of the png's so that your new skin will always fit the screen of the mpc ... it's pretty easy actually

I was just about to start a thread on this, but you beat me to it. Hoping some talented (read: Photoshop/graphic design masters) release some new custom skins for the built-in plugins that take the skeuomorphism a step up. I think the ones Akai did are just fantastic, but I'm really big on custom skins.

I think Bonsaipanda did some for some of the OG effects modules last summer - hope he tackles the new plugins!

Hey guys, thanks for the info.
Looking good, all those skins.

For some reason my MacBook won’t show the MPC’s internal drive. It only shows the SD card.

Do yo know why? Appreciate any help. Thanks.

This is correct, the internal drive of the MPC is not accessible from a computer. Swapping out skins only works if the plugin is stored on the 'Synths' folder on an attached drive like an SD card, USB drive etc. That is unless you have hacked your MPC to support SSH access (will void your warranty).

Thanks so much for the explanation .

Will try to figure this out in the evening and hopefully be able to soon share some results.

Wow these are pretty!
