Comments on: Apple Sculpture, Lemur Touchscreen Ripped Off: Visual Comparisons of “Sincerest Form of Flattery” http://createdigitalmusic.com/2006/09/11/apple-sculpture-lemur-touchscreen-ripped-off-visual-comparisons-of-sincerest-form-of-flattery/ The latest gear, software, and techniques for electronic music production and performance Sun, 07 Sep 2008 21:41:14 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.6 By: Lee Ching http://createdigitalmusic.com/2006/09/11/apple-sculpture-lemur-touchscreen-ripped-off-visual-comparisons-of-sincerest-form-of-flattery/#comment-34180 Lee Ching Sat, 23 Sep 2006 12:51:27 +0000 http://createdigitalmusic.com/2006/09/11/apple-sculpture-lemur-touchscreen-ripped-off-visual-comparisons-of-sincerest-form-of-flattery/#comment-34180 Some guys not understand the layout showed on the lemur picture, its created, based on the monotouchlive layout........ from user of lemur called axou. EXAMPLE: groffhibbitz that is a complete and total copy of the lemur interface. They even copied the buttong a slider colors ans specific placement on the screen from the free ableton lemur template from their website. My final words about this article: This comparative really sucks and its malintentioned.

Basically, he says he didn’t originally intend to make money off of it and has removed the price. He then goes on to make a very strange argument, that his interface is closer to Tetris than Lemur. That’s just silly; as others have pointed out the button-for-button layout of the Lemur template, down to the color of individual buttons, was translated into his design. You can see for yourself, side by side. But I am happy that he’s making this free. [...] [...] You can read DJ Grobe’s comments on the original story.

I wrote before I looked closely. While it is true, as I said, that widgets can be painted realistically in a finite number of ways, these similarities are, as PK said, uncanny.

All so see some MOTU MX4. Course, when you are aspiring to (or grouping yer synth with) a synth like Sculpture, you are setting your self up for comparisons. And that means the approximate imitation better got some serous sound. A slow looking car that goes slow is not a let down, but a fast looking car that goes slow, is.
