Color of the Master Track, howto?

Bassman002 · 01-21-2023, 03:08 AM

HI

Searched in the forum and googled, found some threads about this but no answer!

Is it possible to color the Master Track?

Found no solution at all...

Thanks

Bassman.

It's possible via script or SWS, but in Default theme it just colors "MASTER" text in TCP, MCP isn't affected.

Maybe it is theme-dependent. Check how other themes work, especially non-default.

I haven’t seen it work on any theme and I’ve tried some for what it’s worth but I haven’t messed with this particular SWS mentioned.

HI

Now tried a few Themes, but no chance to get it work!

@vitalker

You said a script can help?

SWS custom colors, too.

Two main steps:
The related background images need to have enough transparency, so the colors can show through.
Setting Track Manager to show Master track and then setting the color in there.

HI

OK. It's Theme Dependent.

SWS Custom color does only work in:

Default 5
Reaper 4
Reaper 5
Classic 1.0

And X-RayM Analog and the Dark Version.

This is indeed great.

All other Themes I use, do not work with Coloring the Master Track, especially:

Smooth 6 (My Favourite)
Reaper 6 Dark
Imperial

Ist it possible to color the others with a script?

Looks much better without this dark Master!

Thanks

Bassman.
