Hi manny, I appreciate your input and does sound like most of its software is 
not accessable which is what i really was interested in knowing. Really wasn't 
sure if it was not accessable to everyone or if i was just doing something 
wrong. I have been able to use it for recording one track at a time, but am not 
sure how I would set it up if i wanted to record two people at once, sending 
channel one to track one for instance and then channel two to track two or 
something like that. There are a couple channels whose volume is not turned up 
and i assume will need someone sighted to make sure this is done and that all 
tracks are checked etc. Right now it appears as though only a couple inputs are 
working so must be something in the software to adjust this. Where i like the 
unit, it is upsetting to be required to have a sighted person help me, 
especially when my wife and son are not into pc recording and may not even know 
what they're looking for in the way of adjusting. 
Thanks much for info and if you have any idea how to assign track etc. would 
love to know, alongwith any other tricks you may have found. Thanks, Dave

  hello everyone, 

      it has came to my attention the questions regarding the fast track ultra. 
which I  have to say has not given me any problems. but please don't quote me, 
I  am just a  beginner.  well to beginn, the ultra is  u-s-b  connected. ok, 
the software is not accessible by our screen readers but if you go to you're 
control panel, you should see  a  link for the m  audio drive  and anyone with 
sight will be able to manuever thru it and ensure all you're outputs levels are 
to the highest or  all the way up at max volume and ensure all the outputs are 
on,  I  had to call up m  audio to receive teck support with the ultra, but 
none the less I  got it working . oh, and  yes you have to install the driver 
from the website and make sure that you have it checked under as you're midi 
device on the options list. I  have been able to use the ultra as an external 
sound card. so when you are not working on sonar , you can blast you're screen 
reader thru  the monitors of you're work station. if you pull out the volume 
control knob on the ultra foe the front four inputs it will automatically drop 
the volume by 20  decibals. pretty cool, huh? oh and to use the inputs in the 
back you will use the little push button on the front of the input, therefore, 
transfering the signal to the rear corresponding to that number input. then of 
course, you probably olready know about the phanthom swithch on the back for 
condenser mics. well hope that helps. hit me up if you have any questions, 
maybe I can help.
