That's why I suggested copying and pasting the presets into sonar. It makes it
alot easier.

Well Omar, I'm not sure I'll bother with that if it didn't work for you, but
as I say, if I route the jaws to PC, and just start clicking with the left
mouse in a few different places, I'm getting some results. I haven't figured
out just how to get what I want though, like for example, I saw a sound
yesterday, and haven't seen it since. That's a bummer. But I'll find it dang
it! Lol.
It's called a skunk, in the funk, and it's very cool. I gotta write somethin'
with it I think. Ha ha ha ha.

Greg,
If you can someone sighted to copy the preset names in to the sonar preset
box foryou and see if they will load that way, that would be helpful. I tried
doing that with omnisphere and sonar 6, and the sounds don't load that way,
which is odd, because any other synth i've used that approach with works fine.

Well my computer is a little querky and sometimes I have to hit the space
bar before any sound will come out, especially if a big sound loads up, so
here's what I've found out so far.
Using sonar 7 and cake talking,
when I open sonar,
do alt I and y, for insert soft synth, Find omnysphere in the list and
open it, I'm placed in the window that tells me the program hasn't been
scripted for and there are no presets available till I route my Jaws to PC, and
go to the top of that window, with control home.
Then I arrow down to, Saw square, and click on the left mouse button,
Finally some stuff opens up that I can use, a mess of sounds, and they are
good.\
It's hard to see how it all works just yet, there's a line that says,
Catigory, type author and tamber, and right below that, four alls in a
row,
all, all, all, all,
I've been putting my jaws curser on the first all, and clicking on that
to load more sounds, then I arrow down, and use the same key stroke to load one
of those sounds,
wait a bit and after it loads I can play it. I find that
to get one of those sounds to play, with out a lot of distortion, it's
best if I close out of that window with control f4.
Sometimes I have to turn down the volume on my audio track to and that
cseems to help. I'm running two gigs of ram, and I suppose I need four for this
big synth. Some of the sounds are 150 megs and up.
To get a new sound, I then have to go to the output colomn on the midi
track, do control Y, to get back in to that preset or plug in window, Route the
jaws to PC again, and arrow down to something that looks good, and do the left
mouse on it. I find that there are so many sounds and some pages only load up
two or three, my sighted friend, can click on something that opens another
bunch of sounds down the list, but we can't get to it with the jaws curser.
I'll bet HSC could fix that for us with Mister Phil's help.
Well anyway that's what I've learned so far. $450 is a mighty big price
to pay for something with such limmited accessibility far as I'm concerned, but
if HSC could help me get further with it, maybe I'll be glad of the purchase
eventually. I do hope so.
My wife says we should talk to the A D A people about stuff like this,
but I sure don't have the energy or patients for that. I suppose conversations
with the developers would be a more positive way to go,
sorta be nice and pleasantly prod them in to accessible accomadation.
Is anyone having a conversation with the spectrosonics people about this
synth? I've left a phone message, but not sure how soon I'll hear back. I got
the impression they wanted to deal mostly on line, but we'll see I guess. I'd
just like for someone who knows more than I do about jaws and computers to chat
with these folks.
If they call me back, and one of you would like to talk with them about
how they could make there instrument more accessible for us, right me off list
with your nnumber and I'll try to get you hooked up with them.
Thanks folks for reading this long post. Think I'll go down there, and
see what else I can find out about this bunch of fun sounds.
my email is,

Boy I installed all six dvd's, took for ever, scanned it with globle
options VST scann, and I hear no sound after inserting it either through the
track view, with the midi channel and banks, the way that stineberg works, and
with the program browser
the way dimension and rapture work.
Is anyone using this soft synth? Could I get some instruction?
