Hi
Here's a list of some things that I'm going to submit to the guy that I met
at the AES show this past weekend. Tell me what I missed or if you have an
easier way of explaining things, please let me know. If there is something
that is incorrect, please notify me ASAP.
Thank you for all who responded, I know who you are. And thank you for all
who ignored this, I know where you stand. *smile*
1. Keyboard support for some of the newer plugins
The new linear plug-ins are a bit
of a nightmare for
screen reader users. For example,
in the Linear EQ, there is a graph which
you need to click on in
order to add a label for a given frequency band. As usual, there isn't a
tab order to speak of in
that plug-in. Perhaps a group of radio buttons would be better
meaning that, you could have
20 radio buttons for band selection in the plug-in. You would choose which
radio button you wanted
to access for a particular band then, tab over to the gain, frequency q
etc.for the band that has
focus. When a particular radio button is selected, only the data for that
band would be displayed
on screen. Sighted people would probably go for this feature too as
currently, when you add labels
for each band in order to work on a given part of the frequency spectrum.
2. Audio Scrubbing--no keyboard support for it yet. At least let me assign
it
to either the mouse wheel or a mod wheel on a control surface. Their are no
keybindings for it.
3. Automations shapes in the bus view
Shapes that are recorded in the buss view, aren't accessible for us at all.
They do not appear anywhere that we can get to.
It would be great if shapes that are recorded in the buss view were also
accessible in the event view. At least that way, we could then go into the
event view and delete them.
4. Real world values in the inspector directly from the plug in. The only
one
that does this successfully is the sonitus EQ. Otherwise, all we get are
percentage values. When using a compressor, what ratio does 43 percent
equate to exactly. Hard to tell.
