[ddots-l] Re: full info on the Cakewalk Vstudio 700 from harmony central

Well, you have Cakewalk who cares about our needs, and Roland who seems to
have forgotten about us. I remember the vs880 being accessible. Things like
the Roland jp8000 and 8080 and the vk8 are accessible, yet the fantom series
is not as much so. OH well, maybe we'll get lucky.--

I here ya.  On the other hand, I note that in order to control the gains on
this control surface, you have to do that from a software dialog box.  Not
sure if that will be accessible either.  If this has been developed by
Roland, and they have implemented this in a similar way to V-Vocal then
accessibility to put it mildly could be well, interesting.

It's possible, but it seems like it is a glorified control surface and audio
interface for sonar. The only mention of displays refer to a seven segment
led for now time and a 2 line 13 character display for markers and whatnot,
but it runs off good old sonar. If I had $4000, I'd wait until cT for sonar
8 came out and take a chance as this seems like it would work well, but then
again, I don't, so I'm waiting anyway. <grin>

Phil replied: I wouldn't count on it.  Neither Tim Burgess or others
interested in accessibility have taken a look at it yet and so are not in a
position to comment.  My advice, don't spend any money until some of us have
had a chance to try it out.  For all we know, this thing could have
wraparound menus, lots of multipurpose menus etc.

The below link takes you to the press release for the cakewalk/roland
v-studio 700, the control surface, audio interface and software that
cakewalk is touting s the next big solution for musicians. I read up on this
thing and I am floored. And since it works around sonar 8 producer, bundles
rapture with sonar 8's dimension pro and even includes a Roland fantom
equivalent synth onboard, would guess that this will be quite accessible.
The price tag, at $4000 hurts, but I wonder if this would convince me to
upgrade from my fw1884 since the hardware and software are integrated.
Anyway, here's the info as per the press release.
