Hello:
also, to add to that, most folks who are using Pro tools are using it with a
control surface. It seems that a control surface is essential for true
access.

Hi Robin.
Pro Tools accessibility is far from complete. Currently, there aren't any
notes/tips on how to use it if you're blind, and there aren't any tutorials
or podcasts to help you out. It is an exceedingly complex program, even if
you can have access to it all, which we, as blind people, don't. Some
determined blind people are trying to use it, in spite of the frustrations,
but many of them are focused on using it because they need it for work, and
thus have extremely full professional lives that make it impossible for them
to spend lots of time creating free notes and podcasts.
Sorry, but this is the state of Pro Tools at the moment.
Bryan

Hi all,
well, I'm robin and I just subscribed to this list! My experience with audio
/ music editing is currently limited, I haven't done too much that goes
beyond recording and editing on Windows. I've migrated to Mac OS long time
ago and would like to start working with audio properly. Therefore, I've
purchased Pro Tools 8 LE. The installation and hooking up the MBox Mini
interface went through smoothly, but then problems begun. I wanted to work
my way through the Pro Tools intro manual. My problems begin when trying to,
for example, import a song using the Workspace: unlabelled UI controls, no
help tags and probably lots of invisible stuff. Same for the transport /
editing controls I guess, and I'm really not sure where I should get
started. Is there anything like an accessibility guide for Pro Tools? Are
there, maybe, any podcasts demonstrating PT with VoiceOver? Or, is there
anyone who would be willing to help me get started, possibly during a Skype
session?
Thanks for any help!!!
