I'll just put my UAD-Roland Tape Echo in the FX-Chain.  I'd much prefer true full color customization or nested folders over yet another FX. But hey, to each his own.

Surely you're not comparing UAD-Roland to Roland (CW)-Roland? Oh, the blasphemy!

How about something like the analyst with a horizontal fader below the analyst for pan which can do stereo width , I would have pan modules have a button to do stero and when that function is enabled , the pan fader now has 2 set points , so you can adjust the stereo field via the faders .
I like the volume control idea too .

My first choice would be to enhance the Quad Curve EQ by offering a larger pop-out window that includes a frequency analyzer behind the graph. Like the old Timeworx EQ.
And then a PC version of Channel Tools.
And then a secondary EQ with just Low and Hi Pass filters (and the analyzer)
And then....

I vote for the "Auto-Mix" ProChannel module... Where you put it on the master buss and it analyzes all content and frequencies and automatically sets all the levels, installs all the appropriate effects on each channel, sets up all the appropriate sub-busses, and then mixes everything down perfectly!

+1 to everything mentioned so far, especially a Channel Tools type module.
I'd like to see more third-party developers getting involved.
That'd really make me feel happy for the future of Cakewalk and Sonar...

A feature that I would find handy in Pro Channel would be the ability to hold the cursor over any element in a module, and an enlarged screen would pop up in order to make adjustments easier. This would especially be useful for the EQ.

Lynn... You can use Windows Magnifier for this... It can be located under "Control Panel" "Ease of Access" "Ease of Access Center" and "Start Windows Magnifier" It's quite handy.....and can be locked...moved, adjusted for amount of magnification, and turned on and off...etc...

Magnifier is a good idea for that, but I think it should updated to show more real estate .. I'm wondering if there a key binding for that, I need to check into that..

Thanks for reminding me of this feature. I was advocating something a little more simple than opening up the control panel, though. In some programs, just holding the cursor over an element or feature will bring up an enlarged screen without jumping through hoops. I would mainly like to see this applied to the EQ in the Pro Channel.

I dont mind using fx chains in the prochannel for things like compressors, reverb or delay etc, but anything that needs more than 6 knobs or visual feedback on the gui just isn;t going to work. If I want to work with any kind of Neve EQ (such as 1073, 1081 or even the UAD 88RS strip) there's just no way I can do this sensibly in the prochannel. So either Cake should develop the fxchanins further, or they should start working more with getting a wider variety of moduless/Gloss eq modes developed. I think they should decide which way they want to go with this and go for it, rather than leaving it feeling like it's only half way there and rather limited. I personalty really like the ergonomics of the prochannel and the concept of setting up a custom channel strip...but EQ is bread & butter mixing stuff and currently I believe there should be better support for more options. I'm already considering moving back to the fx bins as it takes less clicks to open my third party EQs from there.
Even just adding banks or 'pages' to the prochannel fx chanins would be a good start...Then, I could for example load up a channel strip plugin and have fx chain page buttons for the DYN, COMP, EQ1 EQ2 & Filters and be able to use my entire channel strip from within the pro channel whilst swapping out my compressors as needed etc. such as switching off my channel strip compressor and adding the LA2A module into the pro channel for vocals. I'd probably prefer this approach as development of new prochannel modules seems rather slow.
