Cool. I always find myself overwhelmed by the plethora of sounds available in vst-synths. I think you have done some great cherry picking, congrats!
Thank you, nice to know you found it cool. There are lots of sounds and most synths can make most sounds. But some are better at some than others the trick is to learn what each synth is good at. Then decide on what you are looking for, bass, lead, pad, purcussion, etc then limit your palette. Presets are good starting points, but always need tweaking to fit the tune and the mix.

When I use ''learn'' for the transport keys, the keylab does not seem to be sending any midi that is being received.
Are you on a MIDI track? I know that sounds a bit strange but I found that the best way to get it to work, presumably synths respond to the keyboard?

Other DAWs use multiple sets of png's at differing resolutions to facilitate scaling. Also not very theme making friendly.
If most of the theming for Sonar is assigning new colors to objects, this could be done easily in Preferences > > Colors the same as Sonar 8.5 and earlier.
Correct, Arturia do this, if you watch the installation process 70%- 80% of that is installing all the graphical content. Creating a large installation footprint on your drive.
Perhaps the decision has been taken to reduce that footprint for Cakewalk Sonar, I have no idea if that is the fact, but using this new method will do that, as the very basics and simplistic of a vector, is a start point, a finish point and a line weight.
As to theme making I have little idea as I have not really played with them, as I have found the supplied adequate to do what the primary function of the software, which is to make music. Prior to the introduction of a theme editor in S-Plat it was not a big thing for me, though I am aware it was something that was high on some's agenda.

Thanks Wookiee. I tried to get more wideness on the whole song but I placed the priority on clarity and correct sound levels/balance of all the instruments on those parts that are a bit narrow. If I had more than 8GB of ram I could have probably done it. Cheers🎶🎶🎶🎶
Have you tried Infected mushrooms Wider, it is free. Nice tool to add width.

That's a common misconception. Vector graphics can be as ”un-flat” as a bitmapped image. You can have gradients, shades and what-not in a SVG file, just as you can in a bitmapped PNG, JPG, TIF or BMP file. If the forum software had allowed for SVG images to be pasted into a post, or at least be visible when linked from another site, I could have showed an example of that. But it doesn’t.
I am aware, many plugins, that are scalable, use vector graphics, but it is apparent from the little I have seen it is very much a work in progress perhaps a little patience is needed. There may for all you and I know be a reason for a flat graphical style, it does reflect the same graphical style used in other Bandlab products.

Nice wide intro, Oh that shut down to very much in the middle once the drums, bass and other bit kicked in. Was that your intention?
Basically nice tune but became a bit narrow after the intro for my furry ears.- 1

Classic Staypress production, one thing came to the furry mind via the fury ears, I do love the punch on the Kick and Snare I just wonder if they could come back a tad when you are singing. Just a furry eared thought.
Other than your normal level of excellent production and songwriting .- 1

it seems to follow the ableton style, which (i think) was based on some google research, but there are themes available, right?
There are some basic themes, Light, Dark, Mercury and Tungsten. I think we just have to wait for them to finesse the fundamental core of the GUI then we might see a Theme editor. You can still customise some colours in Preferences. The GUI is undergoing a massive changes though from its inception in the first X1 it has used BMP and PNG's in later years, for 90% of its graphical construction. They don't resize or scale gracefully hence the move to vector graphics

The flatness is because it uses resizable vector graphics, but give them a chance it is a work in progress.

I wonder if the license will allow for more than one installation.
Historically as many instances as you had machines, but only one in use at anyone time.

WHOOOOooooo i love sound design compositions, i am a Moog fan but furthermore a massive Syfy fan, reminds me of Raised by Wolves. Its was begging for some drum rolls on toms or that industrial subtle roll, very spacy with lots of verb blended in with the rolls panning left to right. I do believe it would have added dramatic expansion to give it more space. There little orchestral or industrial bangs roll tricks, fool our ears, especially if you delay them on the beat of the synth Arp. Nice work Wookie, love the toys lol
Thanks for the ears and comments.

No good reason the program S-Plat resides in its own directory. However it appears you are running 32bit S-Plat which should be in the X86 program directory.
CbB installs in the 64 bit program directory. Unless you have installed it differently.

Sounds really good Wookie! I'll have to check out that Moogerfooger plug in.
I'd love to hear a future song featuring Z3TA+2, one of my favorite synths even after all these years.
-BjornThanks Bjorn, perhaps.

Actually I meant the synth sounds on Magical Shepard, the tunes are very mid 70's fusion, not for everyone's tastes. IIRC I think he used a 360 Spectre guitar synth.
Listening now on YouTube.

Nice ear candy landscapes, tinges of Weather Report & Vitous's Magical Shepard on this.
Thank you, like me some Weather Report, will have to check out Vitous's Magical Shepherd, they are new to my furry lugs.

Hi Wookie
Really enjoyed this - definitely a touch of Vangelis in there somewhere
Cool stuff my friend
Nigel
Thank you Nigel, possibly the GX-80 from Cherry Audio. The patch is called Composers Dream.

@mibby the ARC studio box is a global solution the EQ correction is in the Studio box, once configured and saved to the box you no longer need the ARC software or the USB connection to the box. That is only required if you want try the alternative profiles like smartphone or 49" TV etc.
