I really need a dark theme for these forums. Too bright to look at in the night time...


That's why panu's duckbar forum looks so good.

It looks good but I'm thinking I would like the whole track channel to change color to the assigned bus not just the bottom.  Maybe an option at some point or did I miss something?

I think I won't use Tungsten until the full colour strips are back.

Colouring the full strips might not be possible. Based on Noel's reply from other thread, Since it is a dark theme the colors of the track controls and text conflict with the colorization of the tracks so this was intentionally not colorized for the entire strip.

Here is his reply in other thread http://forum.cakewalk.com/SONAR-201605-Update-now-available-m3423235-p2.aspx

You people can start a feature request to make some settings to the strips in such a way that the colours are more visible and apparant. Although I dont spend much time colouring the tracks.  Colouring the borders, knobs or Fader Caps might be good. My choice would be fader caps.

The new Tungsten look is exceptional and extremely easy on the eyes especially for long sessions and night work.  I have to admit I was a bit skeptical when I first saw the small preview screen shots as I thought it would be too dark but once I got it up on my monitor screen I was pleasantly surprised.  Very soothing and it highlights precisely what I need to see.  I changed a few colors such as the time ruler and console values to a creme color so they are easy to see at a glance but the general coloring just pops out against the dark background. I like the enhancements to the pan knobs and the color in the EQ knobs it's a nice visual. The entire look is great as I work long sessions and many late night sessions it is very comfortable  To the Bakers you deserve a standing ovation and I look forward to the June announcements.  Sonar Platinum is the best. Thanks !

Same here. Tungsten looks lovely but I have come to rely very much on the full colour strips, and this feels like an instant loss. That said, I'm very happy with mercury :) Nice to see there's more choice now

I am absolutely loving the dark theme and the color expansion. When I started up platinum after the download, I almost fell off my chair. This is great.




My exact reaction... I seriously said out loud "OH WOWWWWWWW..." haha.
And usually I'm totally against my often used programs getting design changes but it is seriously beautiful.
