I've redone completely the Icon.

I based it on the new logo and the old one. I think it turned quite nice

I think the image is a bit to noisy/restless. I would add a white border to the default icon, example:

  • win10 (hard)
  • win10 (with a little bit white glow, even better - my suggestion)
  • white-bg (hard, on white background)

I see what you mean.

The problem I have with the new logo is the lack of readability when it's 16x16.
In it's original form, it's awesome. But as an Icon, can you really tell it's "Sound-Wave-Switch" ?

With the one I made, the Switch part is clear, the sound part a little less. It's a bit of both logos.

definitely an improvement, but still lacks the cleanliness of the original - one doesn't have to represent an entire concept in an icon, just having the "Switch" element of SoundSwitch makes enough sense to me :)

Here is the new logo that I just made

This is the best I came up with. I took back the previous arrow, went for blue, and added a speaker.

It's quite readable in the systray and should be visible on Windows 7 too.
