The pan knobs on my SI Drum Kit theme have fading colors like you mentioned. JknobMan is the app. Java script and has a learning curve to get the most out of it. Takes some time to figure out how it works. You can make simple knobs or very complex ones, but those can slow down the app to high levels of frustration. Download some of the knobs on the website and learn how others did it. One of it's cons is it stops working after so many edits forcing you to save the file, close & reopen the app to continue editing, but the results are often worth it. I used it for Slope & Gain knobs for the ProChannel EQ & flyout. It's displayed values aren't always as accurate as they should be, though: Try 'em out here. (ProChannel.Modules.Knobs.zip)

Photoshop or Photoshop Elements.

pg8. Global / Frame Rounded Corner Bottom Left & Right are no longer used. They were the lower corners of TV's frame in X1 when more graphics were used. Since then several colors & graphics were abandoned in favor of using internal elements to draw the GUI. Most all the gray CV Module backgrounds are obsolete yet are still included in the TTSImage file & TE.

I think the Inspector - Clip color section is broken for PRV drum diamonds. you have to change them in Preferences - Colors - Clips - MIDI Tracks #, #, #... Forground. The numbering system is exclusive to MIDI tracks, so if your 1st MIDI track is track 5 you would change MIDI Tracks 1, 11, 15.... Forground. In one case this didn't work exactly as expected so you may need to experiment with the track numbers in Preferences. I've also noticed the PRV note outlines are sometimes black, so when the diamonds are zoomed way out they look black no matter what color you make them.

The "track" represents what's in the Take Lanes. - The blue top indicates the Take Lane view is "open" or visible. - Click the orange Take Lane button to the far left to close it and the blue top turns gray again. Each time you record a new piece it will create a new take lane. Copy & Paste into a track should place the new clips all on one take lane. Stretch the Take Lane view until you see "+" & "x" buttons. You can delete Take Lanes by clicking the "x" button. You can also drag clips from one take lane to another.

Thanks for the explanation.

It works. Silly me used Print As PDF instead of Save As because that doesn't always work for me in Chrome. Apparently Print As PDF removes any links.

I agree. Slightly OT but what I don't get, in 2020.04 with Auto Track Zoom on, if you stretch all tracks to see all controls and then click on track 2 to focus it, it diminishes to default height. Now I have to resize it *again* to work in it. Makes no sense to me.

Currently follows the order they were inserted. If you rearrange TV tracks then the SR order no longer follows them.

Hey thanks for the honorable mention pg2. Just noticed it. ? Curious if you could make the Contents section on pg2 linkable . Steve

Can you install it beside GR5? I had issues with GR4 not working after installing GR5.

Makes sense since they're all identical, except X2 which doesn't have a folder. And thanks for the registry tip. One could globalize it for all versions there.

Editable graphics are located in the "Cakewalk Content/Cakewalk Core/FX Chain Graphics" folder. Oddly, All versions of my Sonar& Cakewalk right-click/Customize UI menu default to the Sonar X1 folder, not the appropriate one. Not sure if that can be changed. May be a bug no one noticed yet... ? X2 had issues altering the graphics and was left unfixed but CbB seems to work OK.

Gotcha. It actually shows in CbB Tungsten but not Sonar Tungsten. Sonar TE doesn't include it so Sonar Themes are OOL.

Not sure about "post-2020.04" as even SPlat fails to show it in anything other than Mercury. Please explain how and where we can add it.

I've always wanted to make a book like yours but don't have the time. You've undertaken a huge task so community help helps us all. Hard part is knowing what not to include as Cakewalk & TE both include abandoned graphics from pre X series.

Make sure Track View > Options > Meter Options > Record/Playback/Bus meters have Show labels checked or you won't see the scales or their backgrounds.

Works here in both CbB/Theme Editor and Sonar/Theme Editor. Can't say why it's not working on your end. They only work on audio/instrument tracks with "segmented" meters. Not on MIDI tracks. Not on non-segmented meters. The number scale is colored in TE by Theme - Meters - Segmented meters - VU Tick Marks (Segmented).

Location for Vertical & Horizontal Meter Scale Backgrounds on pg17: Background VR, pg17 & Background Fill, pg18 may be abandoned carryovers from previous versions.

Characters used in DOS level file management have always been forbidden for general file/folder naming, like \ / : ? " < > |. Alt code characters, like "▲" that can be used in file naming should also be usable within Cakewalk. At least I don't see a reason why they couldn't. Cakewalk track names are not files and all the forbidden symbols above can be used there. In my case, Cakewalk is replacing the symbol "▲" with a "?" (a forbidden character).

It may or may not be a bug tho. According to the online help, Trimming is for individual clips while Bouncing is primarily for joining 2 or more clips together. Splitting a single clip in 2 without providing a gap between them may be why Trimming isn't working here. Even so, Bouncing works on single clips the same way Trimming does. Removing empty tails. If you simply Bounce instead of Trim, it works with one step.

Yes, but I always use "snap to"... At least, someone's always telling me to.

Not sure why, but... When 2 clips butt against each other, like in your example, you have to Bounce to Clip(s) When 2 clips have empty space between them you can Apply Trimming or Bounce to Clip(s) I almost always use Bounce either way

1. Create midi clip 2. Quantize 3. Bounce or apply trimming 4. Copy +1 for the long awaited Ctrl+D!

To see if I'm reading you right, I just renamed a file on my desktop with "▲" in the name. It took. Then I copied the file to another location and it copied it with the special character intact.
