The majority of Reaper users, seem to use it because of its low cost and you’re
able to use NVDA. So, unless the sets are free, I’d be very surprised if
there isn’t a lot of balking going on lol. I got lots of requests to make sets
available in Reaper, but only ever 1 person who shelled out, hence why I don’t
support Reaper anymore. Good luck, best Steve.

Ok will do.
Question: in case anyone I ask has no idea how involved the sets are, how many
spots/spot rings are involved? About how many hours did it take to create them?
I always want to know that stuff in case anybody balks at the price. (grin)

Recoding the sets for Reaper is as simple as changing the Window title name
and application name referenced in the sets. Can do a find and replace all for
that :-) As for interest in Reaper and Jaws HSC sets, sure ask the Reaper
folks. Would be interesting to get some numbers :-) Personally planning to keep
Sonar 8.5.3 installed even if I start to dig into Reaper as Sonar has some
great plug-ins. Hmm, could recode all Sonar HSC sets so that they also work in
Reaper. It would be nice to be able to use the Sonitus EQ and Compressor in
Reaper as I have a ton of personalised presets that I use here for both of
those plug-ins.

Haha I just asked this very question. Please ignore that post. Glad to hear
it's not that much work to repurpose the sets. Count me in as very very
interested, especially since I'll be buying your sets as soon as I get paid for
the current mixing job.


Want me to ask the Reaper folks how many are using Jaws, to gauge the level
of interest?

Yes the HSC sets for Superior Drummer 2 are Sonar based. Having said
that, it would be really simple to recode them to work in Reaper. Haven't had
any requests for that yet though.

perhaps a crowd-funding campaign? People were able to more than fund
development of NVDA Remote recently, raising some ten grand or so.

Don't think anyone can summarize that better than what you just
did.
Thanks for that.

I should clarify my statement about it being a total Microsoft
issue. What
I mean is that since the OS has to change to accommodate things
like
tablets and the like, it seems that there's this constant burden
that
third-party developers have to scramble to make their products work
under
the new OS; which is fine, as long as there's some sort of
mechanism in
place t
hat can
help them do just that. Not everybody has the massive
resources that Microsoft and Apple have to do it; consequently
they're
constantly behind in having to catch up with the latest and
greatest. It
takes a lot of money and resources paying programmers decent wages,
etc.

I don't know what a fair and viable solution is; and though I
understand
the need to keep up with the technology, I agree with you that
right now
we have a system in place that works quite well, and it's pretty
darn
stable.

Microsoft is not at fault here; honestly in order to make most of
the UI
improvements they have, they had to ditch the old engine and start
with a
new one, especially
for
using apps. Just like what they had to do with the
start menu, taskbar, notification/tray, menu bars which are mostly
ribbons
now, and many other core windows functions. Anyone who’s
tried windows
8 and above knows how different things are from windows 7 and
before.
They’d assume the screen readers and other technologies
would make
whatever changes to keep up to date with their OS.
