Cakewalk skin for Sonar


Olaf

Recommended Posts

Hi,

is there a Cakewalk skin/theme for Sonar?

Since Cakewalk is no longer supported, I'm thinking of replacing Cakewalk with Sonar, but have a hard time looking at the new GUI. One of the best things about Cakewalk was the GUI.

Any plans for one to become available?

I don't get this. I mean, sure, custom theming is not supported (yet, cross fingers) but the Mercury Classic color scheme is near as identical to Mercury in Cakewalk By Bandlab.

Colin, but you can't change the waveforms, like many of us did out of habit.  I know most of you guys are used to the dark on dark waveforms, but a lot of us it's difficult to look at, and more importantly edit for long periods.  I know I've said it several times, but judging from what I've seen and the last update regarding the extension of CBB for a little while, I'm not the only one with this issue.

Simple answer is only those provided, you can modify some of the colours yourself.

The reason is because of the way the GUI is generated. This is explained in quite some detail by several staff, in numerous posts here.

I spent months basically begging for control over some of the easy stuff....but they refuse to put any energy into letting the user control something as simple as the default background color on a wave display.  So...you get what you get.  Pick a color scheme and try to move on.

Makes no sense...because you can control the default foreground color.

I'd actually like to use the Dark scheme.  But I can't because I can't easily see the line when I split a wave.

This is exactly me, it's so frustrating.

At the least, allow us to continue using Cakewalk until they bring the same color customizations to Sonar.  Being forced to move to a DAW with less features makes zero sense.  And I already paid for Sonar I don't have an issue with that part of it.
