Alternatively, just go to sonar options and uncheck the display midi
activity on windows taskbar box. Just encase you have icons that aren't
frequently used but that you'd like to have on the tray still.
 
HTH, D!J!X!

Steve,
 
Since it seems like it's only announcing during MIDI activity, I wonder if
it's reading the MIDI activity icon in the system tray.
 
Can you try to use the customize feature in the Task Bar?
 
Best to do this while you have a MIDI project open and perhaps even running.
minimize Sonar.
Highlight the start button
Alt+Enter to open Task Bar properties
Tab until you hear hide inactive icons and check this.
Then tab to the customize button and press it.
Then in the list you can arrow up/down the various icons and if you find the
one showing MIDI activity, right arrow to open the status list.
Then arrow down until you have always hide as the choice.
then arrow left again to keep this status.
Then find OK and enter, and Ok after that to save.
 
See if that does it.
 
Dave

Hello John, Darrin, DJX,
 
Using JFW10, I tried turning off the speeking of progress bars, moved the
mouse around, and made sure only highlighted text is being spoken,but am
still getting the problem.
 
In the project I'm currently working on, it's all audio tracks until bar 19.
A few bars after the MIDI kicks in, JAWS still says, 16%, 14%, 9% etc...
 
I have no idea why JAWS is now doing this... it must of not liked the move
LOL.
 
Thanks for the suggestions, any other thoughts?
 
Steve

Steve, you can turn off the speaking of progress bars in the Jaws verbosity
menu.
                    John.

Subject: [ddots-l] Strange New Problem With JAWS In Sonar

Hello,
 
I recently moved my home studio from it's summer location to it's winter
location, and after plugging everything in and fireing things back up, I
noticed a new strange new behaivier with JAWS in Sonar 8/producer.
 
After opening up a project, and hitting space to play it, JAWS will start
announcing things like, 9%, 15%, 13%, 16% etc...
 
From what I can tell, it seems to be linked to projects that have MIDI. I
rechecked all the connections and all is fine, so am not real sure why this
is all of the sudden happening.
 
Any thoughts?
 
Thanks,
 
Steve
