Heh, I know Vernal Equinox. He's the janitor at the VFW in Coffeyville. Swell guy.

... most modern UI designs these days are getting away from hardware realism.

Is that because the younger programmers can't spell skyuomorfizm :)

While I don't have a lot of issues with the current UI, I will love being able to tell more easily about FX state...
But, PLEASE. PLEASE PLEASE don't make it look/act anything like Pro Tools.  I don't care if it is the industry standard, it kills me to have to work with it in every way, the worst of which is the ugly, clunky and restrictive UI.

Many will be upset if we get a feedback portal this month, or analystics, or another new menu. Enough sizzle, it's time for the steak. Mastering plugs and skins are the carrots that keep us hanging on. I'm betting those will surface in June or July.

I want to take this bet so badly. 

"You keep me hanging on". Where have I heard that before? 

we use to play the vanilla fudge version...Oy! That Hammond and 2 Leslies were a heavy load!

He He, see what I did there? 

The fact that this variation of Imperial mimics hardware is coincidental for me.  This theme works for me.  I like having different strip options in the mixer an the TCP/arrange windows also have multiple options for presentation; dual pan for a folder, taller meter for tracking, etc.  Options for display of automated controls.  Collapsible folders in the mixer is a sweet bonus.  I hope you guys are laying a flexible foundation for Sonar skins/themes.  It took me forever to find and configure the below, but once I did it works the way I want it to work.  My hope for Sonar theme/skin functions is flexibility.  You'll never make everybody happy with one or two options.  And PLEASE, expose functions for use in custom toolbars!
