Calling all designers.

Id love to see all of your designs of how you'd like the software/hardware to look in the future?

It would be great to put the best 2 or 3 together and present them to the Akai MPC development team.

Im not a designer so I'm leaving it up to the experts.

My vote would be… minimal/flat/simple…. and no more grey/dull colours.

This is what I was working on before my Photoshop started to struggle. Tried to make it look similar to logic GUI, dark greys and clean

but if I were to do it over again would probably do it up better, and fix the spacing etc..

^ mchop, that is well coloured. The way each section has it's own background shade that contrasts from the neighbouring one makes it way easier to see what is what. I like that. I don't use the mpc software, but that to me looks more functional than what I remember seeing for the mpc software stock design... especially that one they showed for the element essentials kit.
