Hi everybody,

I’ve been working on this project for about two month now, so I’m very excited to finally share it with you guys.

Zebra Redux is a skin pack for Zebra, Zebrify and ZRev made primarily with sound designer workflow in mind. Initially I built it to reflect my own needs but I’m sure some of you guys will enjoy it too. So here it is:

There are too many changes to list them all, so here are a few of the highlights:

Zebra
– default window size is bigger now (914×914 px)
– removed lower pane. All its features now reappear in form of modules
– renamed Perform, Synthesis and Patches tabs to XY, SYNTH and LIB respectively
– XY pads and FX Grid are now part of a central pane and accessible from both SYNTH and LIB tabs
– moved assignable XY controls from lower pane to XY tab. Now all XY pad related parameters are in one place
– added new OSCs tab with 4 full-size OSC editors in one place for fast and easy editing, copying and pasting
– added new MSEGs tab with 4 full-size MSEG editors in one place
– moved global patch settings from lower pane to generators pane for easy access
– changed label color of all definable controls (…) to red
– all menus that have only two items will now iterate through those items (when clicking) without opening the popup menu. Menu is still accessible via right click
– OSC module now has waveform editor, waveform selector, preset manager and a subpanel with key and velocity scale editors
– Noise, XMF and Comb modules now feature local XY pads for controlling two predefined (by me) parameters
– FMO module now has subpanel with key and velocity scale editors. FM waveform is represented by an authentic waveform icon
– changed some important menus and switches to graphical icons. Some of them somehow reflect the reality, others are abstract and probably will change in the future
– Arp, ArpMod, Modulation Matrix and MSEGs are now modules in modulators pane. ArpMods and MSEGs modules are hidden if not in use
– added new EXTRA tab. Which is empty. For now

Zebrify
– all changes mentioned above
– Envelope Follower and Pitch Detector modules are now part of modulators pane and have big sliders combined with indicators for easy tuning

ZRev
– changed T and AP knobs to sliders

– copy Zebra Redux folder to your Zebra2.data\Support\Themes folder

To apply Zebra Redux to Zebrify and ZRev you’ll need to do some extra work:

– go to your Zebra2.data\Data\Scripts folder
– rename Zebrify.txt to Zebrifyorig.txt
– rename ZRev.txt to ZRevorig.txt
– from Zebra Redux\Extras folder copy Zebrify.txt and ZRev.txt to your Zebra2.data\Data\Scripts
-> that’s it. Now you should be able to choose Zebra Redux from right click menu in Zebrify and ZRev


Please consider Zebra Redux in beta state. There could be some minor bugs and glitches. If you bumped onto something strange, please let me know here in comments or via email denis@drzhnn.com (in English or Russian) so I could fix it.
