Windows Royale Remixed theme


Hi, is this a Sonar color scheme too?
Where can I get it?

Thanks.

No, it's a Windows XP theme, see here http://royale-remixed-theme.en.softonic.com/

If you're using XP SP3 you have to patch a dll with the UxTheme Patcher. Just read the notes on the website above to get every information you need. There's also a screenshot to give you a thought of what you get. I like it very much for transforming that old and ugly WinXP into a new and shiny elegant OS...

Best!
Wolfgang

Edit: when I'm back home I'll try to make some screenshots and post them here.

Ok. Thanks.
Wish someone would make a Sonar theme based on this shiny black.

Go on! We're all waiting for you

As promised here's a screenshot of what my Sonar looks like: sonabase

Edit to gather what I used:
Windows Theme Royale Remixed
Buddy's Color scheme goobase
Buddy's Rounded Faders for Sonar 8 and WinXP 32bit

Best!

These weren't bad. I was just messing with this last night. The only thing I'd change about Sonar's color setup is to make it possible to create a custom track class that's selectable on a combo box in the Track Properties dialog.

For example, I make all of my drum tracks red, bass blue, piano green, guitar yellow, brass orange, vocals grey, etc. I then invert the foreground/background colors depending on if it's an audio track or a MIDI track.

It would also be nice if they allowed you to use a texture graphic instead of just a color. I mean, who WOULDN'T want to make their Track View background a graphic of train tracks? And who wouldn't want a nice chrome look to their piano roll view keys?

I can't complain, though. I'm content being able to assign custom track icons and colors.

Would you post your color file? This is the color scheme I have been after for a while and just haven't gotten right.

How did you change the mixer faders to look like that?

Edit: Nevermind

I can live with that now...called it "ProGUI"

Hey, did you upload that color scheme yet? It really looks nice!

Something easily doable (two mouse-clicks). I would like the waveform colours to be assignable that way as well. Easily glance at the screen and see exactly what is where. Not that it's hard now, but it'd be a step even further IMO.

you probably know, but if you right click on a clip you can change clip colors quickly in "clip properties"
