VST/plugin GUI design + launch graphics — ads, motion, web

[lalalandsynth]

Here’s another plugin UI mockup, this time with a more whimsical comic-book feel.

Built entirely in Photoshop as a raster design, with the knobs rendered in Blender.

I’ve been developing a whole series of these character-driven plugin concepts, so if anyone is interested in this kind of style for a project, feel free to reach out.

Love the knobs!

[dannytaurus]

@lalalandsynth Yeah, really like that!

Here's another UI concept, this time exploring a modern additive synthesizer.

This one is built entirely in Figma, so it's a fully vector-based interface.
Knobs are made with https://rox-knob-builder-for-hise.netlify.app/ courtesy of @Chazrox

The design is completely modular, making it easy to adapt layouts, swap modules, or reuse components for different plugins while keeping a consistent visual language.

As always, if anyone is looking for GUI design for a HISE or JUCE project, or just wants to discuss ideas for a particular style, feel free to get in touch.

@lalalandsynth Love it! Thanks for the shout out!

Have you seen the Button Designer?

@Chazrox Yes, been using it, will show up in the next design :)

Here is the next one.

A fictional Distortion unit, made in Figma so all colors can be changed and the UI can be adapted to a real plugin.

@lalalandsynth Nice!

[lalalandsynth]

I am on a roll these days :)

Keep in mind that all designs are made with a series of plugins in mind, so I think of each design as a brand. All designs and styles are available so if anyone likes a style and wants to adapt it to their line or individual plugins feel free to get in touch.

Any design can also be made in 3D and animated for ads.

For this particular design I wanted to make something minimal and maintain some empty space, while bending some rules.

So this fantasy brand is Sonicraft - Clarity Series.

@lalalandsynth You're killin it with these looks.

[dannytaurus]

@lalalandsynth What kind of cost are we looking at for one of these looks?

Pull it from public display, rework it for my specific plugin, then deliver the individual assets, various mockups and 3D source files?

Ballpark - is it ££ hundreds, £££ thousands, or ££££ tens of thousands?

@dannytaurus send me pm and we can discuss your particular project as it varies quite a lot. :)
