2025, windows 11, latest Cakewalk, and this still remains
Canopus replied to Sergio Miranda's topic in Feedback Loop
As already being mentioned, Sonar is an MDI (Multiple Document Interface) application. Microsoft previously used to have it in Office, where you for instance could tile multiple Word documents into one application window. But at some point, Microsoft lost all interest in MDI. That’s not to say that the MDI framework currently doesn’t work. However, some remains of Windows 7 are still visually present in such applications, most notably the one you’ve mentioned. The problem has been known for years. I very much doubt that Microsoft will spend time to update the framework, so that later Windows versions will have MDI child windows visually reflect the Windows version on which they are run. For the Bakers to rewrite Sonar into a non-MDI application, or into a multi-window application that doesn’t make use of the MDI framework, would be a big undertaking indeed. -
By quoting that spammer, you make his link persistent, although the post is removed. Maybe you should edit your post.

When having a second look, it’s not perfectly clear to me whether the mail came as a result of me being a newsletter subscriber, or a long-time owner of UVI products. It's not clearly stated in the mail. As I do have the UVI SonicBundle, I might be in the target group. However, I'm sure it's legit. Edit: Note to self: avoid using double negatives in a sentence.

As a subscriber to UVI’s newsletters, I got an email with the link to the survey directly. That means that whoever is behind it, already have my email address. The survey only asked UVI specific questions, such as what future development should focus on. No questions about my bank account or credit card numbers, in fact, not even my name. In the end, I was asked for my email address so that the voucher in due time could be distributed. So, logically, if there would be a scammer behind this, what could he possibly get out of it? An email address he already had?

I think the best way to handle this would be to have the Arranger, Tempo and Video tracks added through a modified Add Track dialog. That way you would never lose any space unless asked for. Also, that would be more or less necessary if additional types of tracks were to be added to Sonar in the future. This is how they do it in Cubase. Note Tempo, Arranger and Video at the bottom of the dialog.

I’ve never seen that. I always use Dark, which is the one in the OP. Then you might wonder, why didn’t they do that in all colour schemes? Personally, I would have kept the gray circle and put an additional black circle around it, just like in my mock-up. None of the colour schemes have that, but I think it would add some depth to the knobs for even better contrast.

Being a UVI aficionado, I bought Shade when it was released five years ago. When I now see this video again, I’m reminded how much more there is to learn. Shade is incredibly versatile when it comes to creative sound design. When released the price was $149, but I bought it for the introductory price of $79. At $29, it should be a no-brainer. Seriously.

Canopus started following Suggestion: Black circles around all knobs
-
Depending on selected track colors, the knobs sometimes almost disappear into the background due to lack of contrast. I know we’re all waiting for enhancements to the color settings, but in the meantime, maybe just a simple black circle could be added around each knob? I think that would improve the contrast quite significantly without that much effort. Something like this:

Even at $74, that's a truly incredible deal, so I had to go for it. The only thing I already had in that bundle was Lacrimosa, so not much overlapping either.

G'day cobber! I just checked if Crowded House came from Melbourne, and, indeed, they did. Had to have a squizz in Wikipedia. So, I guess that expression must be ridgy-didge down-under. Or, at least in Melbourne.

I was once in Melbourne, and people I met there claimed they had four seasons a day.

An intro price of $828 on August 28. I think I see a pattern here.
