Phil,Thanks for the plug - the total's climbing steadily, but I still don't thinkit's a representative number. Please remember, don't artificially inflate the value by signing as mickey@xxxxxxxxx, or some such fake - we want real figures that have full credibility. Best wishes.

For example, I could get my wife to sign this because me being unable to access some hardware/software has a direct impact on her as Sarah has to read off information from screens etc. Remember, Tim can't approach manufacturers unless he has meaningful figures.

Korg is like this, Native instruments is like this,Spectrasonics is like this, Access Music, the makers of the Virus are like this and I am sure the list goes on and it just boils my blood every time,as these are products we could be using and we can't and the I don't give a shit attitude just reaks. I hate feeling like we just have no options and nochoices anymore. A shame there isn't enough of us to put pressure on thesecompanies or bring some negative media attention their way. -- Damon Fibraio screen names -- aol: dfibraio...msn dfibraio@xxxxxxxxxxxx skype: dfibraio personal music site: http://www.keyboardguy.com.

Eric Persing himself is on that board and I've discussed accessibility with him on all of his products. They are not interested. Take it or leave it.

Thanks for that. If the plugin is basically accessible though, would it be worth contact Spectrosonic and bring the accessiblity issues to their attention. The windows within windows thing I would've thought is a useability issue rather than an accessibility issue. I've been listening to some of the demos and it's such a bloody good sounding peace of software it would be worth fighting for some changes in it.I'm on the Spectrosonic page now and it mentions somethign called stylus alot, I assume that separate? is that also suffering the same problems.

Greg and I attempted to create an .HSC set for this however, we couldn't figure out an easy way toscroll through the patch list as you have to actually drag it with the mouse. having said that, Greg now is able to save out presets and access them again which, I guess is some progress. The application is a bit of anightmare as it seems to contain Windows within Windows.
