New Dark Side Theme based mod is coming soon for SONAR 2015...
 

 
Mod is included in the next Duckbar update. Stay tuned! :)
 

Looking good Panup!

I want this more than Christmas!

Control bar will look something like this:

 
PDC and FX buttons are RED when enabled, just like in my old mods. When SONAR X1 introduced the new Skylight interface (including this Control Bar), I could not guess if the FX button was enabled or not because the "Sonar cyan" color has about the same brightness than the gray button when it's not engaged. I had accidentally toggled all FX off by keyboard shortcut and wondered a long time why my mix sounds so odd. Finally I found the FX button and clicked it a couple of times and tried to guess if it should be blue or gray; in my opinion it's logical that effects are on when FX button is engaged but someone at Cakewalk has an opposite logic: FX are turned off when FX button is engaged. Confusing... This button was one of the things that made me do mods for SONAR!

FX button finetuning:
 

Effects are on - green background and FX text.
 

Effects are bypassed - red background and NoFX text.
 
Now even I understand in 5 milliseconds state of the button. :D

New Pre/Post button:

 
In the original button "Pre" state is indicated as "Post not enabled". In other words, it's a button with Post text but button background in gray color when ProChannel is Pre FX Bin. This is confusing because you have to think "pre" as "not post".

New button solves this dilemma - it shows ProChannel position as clear text but also as color: red is for pre and blue is for post. Most of the time this is set to post; thus the red color is there to indicate that there's something special going on.

Looking great, panup!

New built-in module skins

-76 is Dark Side based with updated push buttons
 

PC4K compressor - I'll remake this to clean up the buttons section.
 

ProChannel Tube. I and II types are A and B in this skin.
 
 
FX Chain and my favorite, -76 compressor are now easy to pick up from the Insert Module list...

 
 
 

Great work. Thanks Panu.
