Actually, just a little correction here. The only thing I absolutely need to use my control surface for is to dynamically change volume. In other words, the faders are not visible to the screen reader. Further, I happen to have an expensive control surface but any surface using the HUI protocol will work. For what it's worth, JAWS and Window Eyes apparently see a whole bunch of things in the latest version of Pro Tools. With each new version of PT coming out, I think it's a good idea for people to check out the state of things. For that matter, the new PT 8 which is coming out in a couple of months, the user interface has been completely redesigned with customizable windows and displays. Definitely worth another look on the Windows side. 


Cheers,

Slau

We can't use it easily. Jerry is definitely the exception with regard to using Pro Tools. also, Jerry has quite a hi end control surface that he uses in order to drive Pro Tools on a Mac. In other words, Jerry is using the control surface to achieve most of his accessibility, rather than the Mac itself.

Oh I didn't know that we blind peeps could use that. How does it work? I
thought it was not accessible. Is it?


God bless you!

Hay slau!

Don't want to make you or anyone else feel sad.  sorry if I came across
as
not caring. I personally have a lot of respect for people like yourself 
who work on a Mac using PT.


Oh Phil, nevermind me. It's a knee jerk reaction on both our parts.
Whenever

I hear about somebody having a problem with their Windows machine, my
first
inclination is to say, "Well your first problem is that you're using
Windows." Without, of course, considering that it may be user error, a
third

party software conflict or, as in this case, a hardware issue which, I
wasn't aware of because I never had such a FireWire issue. Thanks to Kevin for that info. At any rate, yes, it did sound like a categorical dismissal 
of which I'm often guilty. thanks for the clarification.

Cheers,

Slau
