Can anyone offer the best in class theme or skin with a pic to show off your wizardry?


Please and heartfelt thanks for anyone helping out...
 
I was told a guy with the name of "Snood Yad" said to do this. He claimed that life would be a great new adventure with your input.

As far as i know i've not seen anytime a foobar skin specific for surround. Will love to know if there is any...
 
I just use a standard (third party) skin. I think it's called Dark One or something like that. Can't show a shot as I'm at work. But many who use Foobar, use the Dark One.
 
:bump: for Jeffko

Need more replies and screen shots pleaaaaaaase :banana:

This was what I developed during my free time. It's a bit of no-frills rudimentary but it kinda works for me.
 
Definitely the best so far!

How hard is it to customize based upon what you have so far?

Is this available for download somewhere?

Thanks again!

I took my time with this one, and tried to incorporate as many features possible. More function over aesthetics.
I use Foobar as my secondary playback device, hook it up to my el-cheapo MC DAC for music in my living room, via my network.

Its got;

1) Multi-channel VUs (Left - Slow Response, Right - Fast response)
2) Musical Spectrum - Only one i could find with a frequency range wide enough for Hi-Res. Click on it to display Freq.
3) A choice of Stereo VUs - I like the look of the McIntosh ones
4) SACD Decoding - DSF/DFF file playback
5) DTS and AC3 encoding - Good for playing those old DTS CDs
6) Dynamic Range Meter - Right Click on the file to select
7) UPnP/DNLA Renderer to turn your computer into a music server
8) HDCD Decoder
9) ASIO Suppport - Works great with my Chord MOJO
10) Album Art - I've customised mine to display files with 'Folder' as name.
11) DVD-A Watermarking detection
12) Autosave & Backup
13) Dolby Headphone - I've not played with it as yet.
14) Channel Mixer - If you want to 'surroundise' your stereo tracks.
15) File metadata - If you like those sort of things

I can easily share the backup folder with anyone that wants it. Just replace your with mine to get going.
I'm not too savvy with sharing, i suppose i could email it across?

What is your el-cheapo MC DAC? Don't see it listed. We use the same Sony ES, MC Preamp by the way.

It's the 10 dollar special from Hong Kong, 44.1/48khz 16 bit. 6 channel out.
Am very impressed with the performance though. I run it with satellites though a Carver power amp in the living room, perfectly child-proof.

BTW, those TA-P9000s are very rare these days, mine sounds really good. MCDAC.jpg

Awesome! Mine is pretty simple...just VUs, waveform analysis, and album covers. And of course it has all the necessary decoders (DVD-A, SACD ISO, DTS, AC3, etc).

Has anyone added a quad oscilloscope feature??? That would be soooo awesome and I've always wanted one.
