Hello LMMS community

I’d like to share a conceptual GUI redesign I made for the Triple Oscillator plugin.

This is not an official proposal, nor an implementation — it’s purely a front-end / UI concept created as a way to contribute from a design perspective.

The goal of this concept was to create a modern, minimal, and intuitive interface, while keeping the original functionality and spirit of Triple Oscillator.

Design goals

• Horizontal layout (no more vertical cramped window)

• Dark and light theme variants

• Clear separation per oscillator

• Better visual hierarchy

• Familiar workflow inspired by tools like Vital and FL Studio’s 3xOsc

• Still simple and beginner-friendly

What I did

• Full GUI mockup (design only on Figma)

• Dark & light theme versions

• Piano section separated

• Per-oscillator sections clearly defined

• Optional / future concept: Per-oscillator envelope visualization like 4OSC from Waveform (UI mockup only, would require backend changes)

• Modern knobs and controls

(Images attached below )

I documented the full design process in this video:

One problem I see that if each oscillator is to have its own ADSR envelope then every project made previously is going to sound different - great point though by pointing out that we are missing out on that with built in instruments, I'd never really thought of that as I only use built in instruments and effects.

Also from my experience trying to create a plugin, I think for instruments, the size has to be the same as all the others.

Good idea
