It would be fantastic to be able to customise the font used in the Touch Bar (with an option to override any other selections)... I don't know exactly which typeface is being used currently but I'd certainly like to experiment with SF Camera (from the iPhone 11 Pro's Camera UI), and San Fransisco Compact...
I agree. The current font seems a bit heavier than Apple's. Definitely draws my attention a bit too much from my screen.
If you know the exact name of the font you can override it using this terminal command:
defaults write com.hegenberg.BetterTouchTool BTTTouchBarCustomFontName THENAMEOFTHEFONT
This needs to be run while BTT is quit. The font names usually look like this:

Thank you, that's awesome! SFCamera (ripped from an iPhone 11 filesystem I think) looking much sharper, I think SFCamera is one of the most impressive more condensed typefaces. It's highly readable and also pretty cool looking. Anyway, thank you! That was actually easier than I anticipated, I thought Apple would have for sure end-to-end encrypted the entire type system via the T2 chip and NASA! (Of course even if they did it may still be negated by a defaults write haha)
