Thanks, could you tell me where I put the files once I have them, ie do I just extract them onto my mbox or into a new folder, and what do I need to do after that? Many thanks from Lori. ----- Original Message ----- From: Cameron To: ddots-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Monday, May 31, 2010 4:56 PM Subject: [ddots-l] Re: Help with mbox2 Hi. the accessible version of pro tools for the mac will be out very soon. However, pro tools on windows is a lost cause, not only for its lack of accessibility. Anyways, yes you can use your m box with sonar and goldwave etc. just download the stand alone drivers from the avid/digidesign web site. Be sure to uninstall pro tools before you install the stand alone drivers though. That should work. Cameron.

It simpley isn't showing up as a recording device. I needed sighted help to enstall it with its own version of pro-tools which by the way isn't accessible for the blind. The people at the mbox website don't seem to have a clue about making their software blind friendly. I don't actually need pro-tools, but apparently the mbox does. Does anyone else have an mbox2, and if so could they please tell me how to get the thing working. I was told an m-audio soundcard is the best thing for recording music with Sonar, podcasting and other audio work I have in the works, but so far I can't get anything to work with it, and the m-audio people are no help. Any help would be appreciated. Many thanks from Lori Duncan.
