Hello everyone,

first of all: thank you for your continued interest and support for the project, it is indeed very encouraging to receive your praise and appreciation. I guess the latest version of the deafman themes constitute a solid foundation for Live 12, but it won't stop here. f

I. Themetools is in its very early stages, and there's still a lot of room for improvement. Currently, it's a monolithic Python script that I plan on modularizing in order to make it more accessible and versatile. Ultimately, we shall be seeing presets for UI elements and with it the ability to customise Live's UI without introducing any legibilty issues.

II. The fonts, and specifically DeafType 3, have been streamlined to a point where I feel comfortable to pass them on to a professional typographer for fininshing. I guess it is pretty obvious that I have violated every rule of the trade and someone else needs to take over to fix the mess. For now, it's somewhat tolerable but still a far cry from being perfect. Once this is done, we shall be seeing DeafTypes in our Max for Live devices as well - a major step toward a more seamless experience.

III. Regarding the license agreements, I would like to inform you that I've revised them for both the themes and fonts to be less restrictive. Previously, you were not allowed to put your deafman themes on public display, which has now been rectified. Please refer to the updated terms as per the attachments to this email. All downloads have been updated accordingly.

Happy 4th of July!
