Just to add, an amazing fully accessible solution using Jaws scripts with
the DAW Samplitude is on the way. Further more this solution will be
totally free. Hope the guys who are developing it will set-up a Pay Pal
donate page as it would be great to give something back to them for
developing it. Samplitude is a Windows based DAW and it really is quite
something! Looking forward to getting my teeth into using it :-)

Phil replied: the disadvantage with Voiceover is that it is not a fully
fledged screen reader in the way that say Jaws is. Meaning you can't crawl
around on the screen from within the Apple OS and expect to see anything.
Chances are you either will see something or you won't. Also, there isn't a
scripting solution on the Mac side that works as well as say HotSpotClicker
and I have yet to find any DAW that comes close to giving you all round
functionality as Sonar with Cakewalk and or Sonar with JSonar scripts and
HotSpotClicker sets. For example. Pro Tools on the Mac is great if you
primarily work with audio but not so great if you use MIDI. Also, forget
using apps such as Superior Drummer in Mac land as you can't see anything
from within the interface. Finally, expect the speed that you work at on
the Mac to be flushed somewhat down the toilet. Meaning whilst it's
certainly true that you can navigate around with Voiceover however, expect
to use 10 plus keystrokes to do the same thing as you would say using 1 or 2
keystrokes under Windows. Sure you can use control surfaces to speed up
functionality in apps such as Pro Tools however, that's not exactly a
portable solution :-)

Hi MIke, I am with you brother, I myself use both Sonar and Logic Pro, and
the two softwares makes me very independent, and I am also running a
business where I do recordings for clients.
I have to tell you that even Apple is not 100% however having the two
softwares gives me the independence that I love and appreciate each and
every day, as a trainer as well, and support specialist.
Derik, you have to understand that Dancingdots, and Freedom are trying there
very best to meet each and every one's needs, and what with all the
different config's and al that jazz, it's hard to meet and possibly be there
to solve all the issues in the world at once.
The advantage of Apple is that all the computers are built with basically
the same spec's and VoiceOver is built right in to the OS which makes it
easier to build accessible most of the time.
Once again, it's definitely not perfect.
I emailed you off list because I'm willing to try and help you to try and
resolve your issue if you want.
Once again I can certainly understand your frustration, however giving up is
not the answer.
Cheers.

Believe me, the CakeTalking tutorial is pretty damn good. Yes, this

That's my story; and I'm stickin' to it.
