Hi Kevin I totally agree with you. No software out there is going to do everything that you need it to do. They all have their strengths and weeknesses. What matters though especially for those who are totally blind is definatly accessibility. Which brings me to the next question, is Pro tools finally accessible for the mac, or are we still fighting this battle. I have definatly come to the conclusion that my next purchase will definatly be a mac since I would love to explore both worlds, since I work at a rehab centre in Montreal, and now started training Music software packages such as Sonar with CakeTalking, and Goodfeel, I'd love to explore the Mac world, and offer other music software trainings. Its always a good idea to be versitile, and learning is my strength. I have been in school since the age of five, and am now 38 years old, and still going to school, working full time, running a recording home studio, and teaching Guitar, and Bass, working as a music arranger in my local church, starting my masters program, not to mention happily married. ------ Original Message ----- From: Kevin Reeves To: ddots-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Wednesday, March 25, 2009 2:30 AM Subject: [ddots-l] Re: outspoken Agreed. The playing field is more level now than it ever was. A song may go through 3 different platforms before it ends up in the hands of the mastering engineer. I bounce between Pro Tools and Sonar on a daily basis. No platform is better, just different. It's a case of tool for the job.
