Syntronik 2: Blurry Graphics

[Kreeper6]

The graphics in syntronik 2 are blurry/fuzzy. I've looked at images and videos online, they look to be very crisp.

Does anyone else have this issue?

Which particular area? Maybe you can post some screenshots?

The GUIs are all fuzzy and out of focus. I'm on windows 10, 1080p.

Here is a link to a few...

Same here. Please report the problems to Technical Support. When you get the auto-acknowledgment email Reply to it and attach those screenshots so that Support can see the problems.

They are all fuzzy here, especially in comparison to the V1 Syntronik version which loads sharp and clear. Both the old, updated interfaces and the all-new instruments... not sharp in the Syntronik 2 engine.

It's not a showstopper by any means (unlike the serious filter issues with S1 presets in S2, which is a giant, glaring, sound-affecting bug, already reported by myself and others) but it's hard to see how it's a good look for IK to leave this unattended. Hopefully they are working on fixes... I'll put in a bug report for this too, maybe if enough people report it somebody will notice.

I contacted IK Multimedia support yesterday. I wrote about the exact same issue. The phrase "out of focus" and word "fuzzy" would've come in handy. I only wrote that interfaces in Syntronik 2 are blurry
To my surprise I received an answer after only 2 minutes. The information in the email gave me some hope that next update will improve the visual experience. It's good news that this problem had been acknowledged. Like someone already mentioned it's not a deal breaker. Still when I see the crisp layout in Syntronik 1, I can't help but wonder what went wrong in the latest version.

Thanks for sharing the good news. This update came sooner than expected.

I just checked and compared a few synths in Syntronik v2.0.2 and 2.0.3. Great job with this update! Not only did the letters gain sharpness but also the controls look much better, including full screen views. I know that sound quality is most important here, but this update will make it much more pleasurable to use.

The update has fixed the issue on my system.

SampleTank 4 has the same blurry graphics issue in the effects section, hopefully we'll see a fix soon.

and better contrast / colours in ST4. Pretty, please.

Yes, there are some improvements, but but compared the Syntronik, the font is much smaller, the images are smaller (even when the UI is enlarged) and there is unnecessary interlinear space between the lines of text that could be used for a larger font comparable to Syntronik.
