I wish to thank Buddy (Sam) for the meters he did. I must say I feel very special that Buddy made those meters to my specifications. It was a lot of work that has been well received by me. They look beautiful. I wish I could thank Buddy in a more tangible way. I hope he knows now that his work is very much appreciated. Thank you Sam. 

Yea, I am now sporting the cool faders and blue meters. Thanks Buddy! they look awesome.

Speaking of color schemes - does anyone know if there is such a thing as a color picker tool that lets you pick a color from somewhere on the screen and apply it to Sonar's color chart so you can use it to match colors in Sonar?

Hey very cool. Thank you very much!

No problem!

The colors don't always translate perfectly when you input them into Sonar (as far as the exact color number goes) but they look close enough.  Seems like the color palette in Sonar is somewhat limited.

Take care!

Garrrr... I just found that out the hard way
 
I was trying all different things to get the colors to match up including typing in the exact numbers (which is the only way to do it from what I can tell other than try to drag that crosshair around until you get close). You can type in all the correct color numbers but when you try to change the hue and those other input fields the color numbers change to something else. Ugh. It's never easy :-) Anyway, thanks again. Close enough in Sonarland is good enough I guess. Didn't have to be perfect.  I even tried to find an INI file that might have those values in hex so I could just copy the exact hex code but I didn't see where the colors are stored unless someone else knows?

Larry,
 
If you go to Sherwin Williams' website there is a tool there called the Color Visualizer.
 
http://www.sherwin-williams.com/visualizer/index.html
 
When you open this link click on "Explore Interior Colors" 
 
Now you can see all of Sherwin Williams color palletes and groups. When you click on one of the swatches you will see the RGB properties of that color. Those RGB values can be directly applied into Sonar's color options with nearly identicle results.
 
I was able to come up with some very pleasing color combinations for my clips along with other spects of my preset. In the end I am really happy with how Sonar looks. I was able to make it easy on my eyes while making everything clearly visable.
 
Good luck,
 

Thanks Buddy! You are the BEST!

I use Classic Green and rounded fader!

Buddy - Thanks so much for these!!

I am probably doing this wrong - I've got the rounded faders - Looks Great!

But for some reason I cant get the meters to work - 8.5.1

Is there something I am missing? - Installed in the correct directory - same as the fader
 
 
EDIT: MY BAD!!!!! - All is working fine - I'm such a dumb*** sometimes

anyone know how to change the color of the tabs below the bus section?  By default, the tabs are named (from left to right).....all-custom-mix-fx-i/o.

BUG! Color's doesn't work correctly in SONAR 8.5.1 , 64bit.
Some settings doesn't get change or remembered? also...


Other bugs...The Values and all Bus-Text in console-view are all blurry in SONAR 8.5.1 compair to 8.3.1.
And not just console all values and text of tracks and so on...
 
All menus are fine inside SONAR 8.5.1!
Please, this is seriously Bug/Problem, becuse you can't work... you get headache.
