My first time back in the forums since Sonar X1-2. Been using Cakewalk since Pro Audio 9.
I get that the custom themes had to be removed to go to vector graphics. Not an issue.
The removal of controls to set some very basic colors on the interface is however, very frustrating. If I cannot customize piano roll background, track names, etc, or the main highlight color in a theme (orange? purple? come on thats not going to work for everyone) it is not just annoying but makes visual use of the software fatiguing and slows workflow.
Cakewalk, please step up and put this basic feature back ASAP, or at least provide more default themes like Mercury but with a dark PRV like Tungsten has, and please let the highlight color be set by user. I think most would be happy with some basic control here, and not sure we need another total theme editor, just let us pick major interface colors again! New Sonar coming from CbB should not have been released with this removed in my opinion, especially when it is advertised as the same or better but is not in a couple aspects. I was actually surprised to find this change when I installed and realized this ability was gone, since I am not sure how colors that were not part of theme editor before CbB were not removed.
I am not thrilled about the subscription model, but I hope it is worth it to invest in this future for Cakewalk, and that we get some updates in a resonable time, while Next is also likely consuming a lot of resources.
