Joe, Jaws is exclusively for Windows. The Mac has its own built-in
screenreader called Voiceover. It is my understanding that Digidesign
is beginning to build accessibility into Protools, at least on the
Mac. The windows version is pretty bastardized anyway & isn't worth
fooling with, from what I'm able to gather.
Might I suggest that u subscribe to a list called midimag. The
subscription address is:
midimag-subscribe@xxxxxxxxxxx
There's a gentleman on there named Kevin Reeves. He & Slau Haliton are
the Protools gurus & can tell u precisely the state of Protools
accessibility. There's also another gentleman on there named Mike
Christer, who went blind like 5-6 years ago. He uses Sonar I believe,
but he's still doing a lot of recording. Another guy is named Sean
Brock, & he, too, is on the charts. I don't know what rig he uses.
Tell your story there. They'll help.
I'm cancer-free for 8 years now. It can be done. Please go to:
www.cancerrecovery.org
& contact me privately if u have questions regarding that. Open up a
can of whoop-a$$ & send that thing runnin!
Being blind bites--there's just no getting around it--but it's not the
end of the world, even though when you're initially going thru it, it
sure feels like it. There's a lot of people who'll be eager to help
u,& you've taken the first step by reaching out, &, even though it
probly wasn't precisely the right listserv, hopefully it got u steered
in the right direction.
Blessings. Stay positive.

Blame the computer--why not? It can't defend itself & occasionally
might even be the culprit
