Hi :)

When flipping through the catalog of our local music store, i noticed that many "advanced" mixers have faders in various colors.
For example, the normal tracks have black faders, submix buses have white faders, aux is yellow, masters are red...

edit:
Samplitude (v8) does it as well, has normal tracks in white, aux and submixes in blue, master faders are red.

And now that advanced theming has been implemented anyway, why not advance it further? :)

There could be the possibility to manually tint every track's fader (like with track colors), tint track-type faders in the preferences under "color theme" as one can do now with "media item background" and "media item background in loop selection" (for example)...

Or another thing are fader images, maybe there's someone (like me) wo doesn't only want his submix faders to be bright red instead of simple grey as all the normal tracks faders are, but also wants the submix ones to be bigger or smaller or something...?

Just a thought, but it would surely help "keeping track" in the mixer if you don't wish to shove all the submixes over to the left - and even then.
