OK, guys. Here's some potentially promising news from Toontrack about superior drummer. If you guys want to either email me with issues you are seeing or write this guy yourself and let him know that you are blind, that may be a good start to get accessibility fully sorted out for this product. -- Damon Fibraio screen names -- aol: dfibraio...msn dfibraio@xxxxxxxxxxxx skype: dfibraio Find me on facebook as Damon fibraio or twitter as dfibraio personal music site: http://www.keyboardguy.com.

We are currently reviewing accessibility in all our products. It is unlikely that the next version of Superior due out this month will address all concerns but we have hired a consultant to help us with future updates. Rest assured that we do take the matter at heart and that we will aim to improve the general availability of our products, to the best of our possibilities, for our visually impaired customers. In the meantime if you have specific suggestions I encourage you to email me direct, although I won't necessarily be able to answer rapidly or with definite answers to your particular concerns.
