A lot of people helped make Cobalt possible. Working with them has been a thoroughly positive experience. I am very grateful for their time and effort.

Special thanks to:

Rick Christy (a/k/a grymmjack) of DesignerMonkey:
Rick designed the UI; he did the background image as well as all of the graphical elements. He also provided a lot of helpful advice early on. Contacting him was one of the best things I ever did for this project as I’m not sure Cobalt would have seen the light of day without his help.

Donovan Stringer:
Donovan set up a web forum for Cobalt beta testers to post bugs, comments, and anything else relating to Cobalt’s development. He also provided a lot of helpful advice and suggestions. Like Rick, his contribution has been invaluable.

Shannon:
Shannon beta tested Cobalt and found a few problems early on that would have slipped right by me without her help.

Mike McFarland:
Mike has helped with everything from beta testing to proof reading the manual. He’s been a great source of help, always there when I needed an opinion or insight.

Mitchell Burdette:
Mitchell did quite a bit of beta testing and created a wonderful demo song for Cobalt: Demo Song

Alexander Stoica:
Alexander did some beta testing for me and created a set of wonderful patches.

Atomsplitter:
Atomsplitter provided a set of very cool and interesting patches. He wrote an evocative demo, Are You Ready, using sounds he created with Cobalt.

sinkmusic did extensive beta testing of Cobalt and created a few of the factory presets.

Roby Burgos (a/k/a sweet_trip) beta tested Cobalt in its later stages and provided a lot of help and support. He belongs to a band called Sweet Trip. You can check them out here and here.

Tracy Williford:
Tracy helped with the layout of the manual as well as picking out the font style.
