  1. If that were the case my post wouldn't be 3 pages deep, and have others like it on here. I want cakewalk to succeed as much as the next guy, I've been using it for decades. But you can call something out and ask for improvements without being antagonistic to the platform or labelled a "hater". If they are pushing people in a new direction, they should take into account what those people want in a platform.
  2. Respectfully, this is not universally true, that's it's better. Today I was trying to give new sonar another chance. Set it up on my laptop, opened up a cbb session with a vst drum I was programming, and in new sonar it wouldn't follow the project on playback. In cbb worked perfectly no issue. Mind you, I'm not saying cbb is without issue, I'm just saying that new sonar isn't inherently "better".
  3. I agree with your p.s., that's why it's always been hard for me to leave, it's a damn shame really.
  4. I don't know of any numbers, but I'm one for sure. I deleted it yesterday. It's literally the first time I've ever contemplated jumping to another daw since I started working in sonar almost 20 years ago.
  5. Yes, that's the one I've used for years. It's no frills, fully customizable. I have one on my master bus, all group busses and usually on the last track I'm working on. It's a great way to jump back into projects and not feel lost with what you're doing.
  6. I agree with this. I saw a post a few days ago by one of the bakers saying this was a soft launch, and I thought, wait, a soft launch that lasts a couple of years? Something's not right behind the scenes. I honestly speak from a place of love, I literally love sonar, but if they aren't responsive to it's user base, and only care about acquiring new users, you're not going to have any kind of successful launch, soft hard or otherwise.
  7. Hey SteveC, Tried it out, and it worked sort of, but because of the default behavior of the built in themes, every new track has to go through the process individually. Sometimes I work on projects with high track counts, so that's a big no no for me. I'm going to keep using Cbb, but for the first time in all these years, if they cut me off, I might have to find a new daw. That's a real bummer for me
  8. This looks great steve, thanks a million! I'm gonna give it a try and report back later, awesome! THank you
  9. How'd you do that?!! Like what was the process? This would be so much easier on my eyes, especially the first one.
  10. Hey Jonesey, unfortunately no. The issue is how my vision works. I don't know what exactly is the cause, but viewing these basically monochromatic UI's hurts my eyes and usually end up in migraine. It's a real problem for me.
  11. Get the note vst, you can change whatever you want and use it any daw you want.
  12. I get what you're saying, but to me it's not about just preference, I get migraines looking at these dark UI's and brightly centered blobs. Every software I have installed that is like this, the moment I check and see there is no way to customize, it gets deleted.
  13. Hey guys, I don't know if this is the best spot for this, but here it goes. I've been using Sonar/Cakewalk going on almost 20 years or so. I love cakewalk and have held on through all the different ownership, cause I know it well. I have been hesitant to jump into new sonar, one, because I'm not a fan of subs, but two, and more importantly for me, the lack of ability to edit the color palette on the GUI. I have visual issues, and I need contrast to be able to edit and spice comfortably for hours when making music. For a while now sonars color palette had been and issue for me, since the gibson days, but there was always a way to change it. In the new sonar, that is not the case. With the new offer for cakewalk users I decided to download it again, and again, I couldn't look at it for longer than a few minutes at a time without getting a migraine. Is there no workaround for this? I can't see myself paying for something that doesn't take this type of stuff into account for it's users. I've included a few pics to show what I mean. The first is cakewalk, the second is new sonar. Same exact project. Cakewalk is much easier to edit the color palette and make it easy on my eyes. Other daws have this as well, I'll add pics of that too.
