Darker Round Rect NSButtons

My apologies for what may be a seemingly obvious and simple question, I want to make sure I'm not overlooking anything though. I have been trying to poke around the internet for examples of what I'm looking for but have come up empty so far.

I'd like to use the Round Rect buttons with a colour scheme similar to that used by applications like Pixelmator - if you look at http://www.pixelmator.com/i/layers-front.png you can see what I mean. It's a darker more colour sensitive scheme. I was using the CALayer effects in Interface Builder to apply an exposure adjustment to the buttons that sort of gives me the correct look, but I can't help wonder if I'm missing a simple setting somewhere.

I figure I could either subclass NSButtonCell or make the changes via an -awakeFromNib call in the document class but, as it appears a few applications seem to be using this style of button, figured it wouldn't hurt to ask.

On that same note, would the horizontal slider shown in that image use a similar override?

Thanks
