yes Pete,
I've always wonder which of these INI files contain the list of last
open Projects, and if this particular file could be skipped. Tell me
about BAT files, I'm not that good in computer science, are they easy
enough to create and handle?
Thanks,
JPR

Yes, I think I’ll just set up some more bat files for doing the swap back and forth automatically. The only thing I seem to lose that way is the list of last opened projects under the File pull-down menu, which is nice to have, but not necessary.
I never knew that the scripts were designed to only show one track at a time. I thought there was a way to show more, but maybe that is only in the Track manager and Object manager where control+T shows how many tracks are visible. I don’t even know what my wife did to show multiple tracks on the screen at once.
Thanks everyone.

hi Pete,
I don't see why it shouldn't work. I already have my own INI files in a folder so that if Samplitude changes anything, I can reload mine instantly. So if you have two sets of files, one with your name, and one with your wife's name, all you need to do is paste The ones you need in Samplitude's folder.

I think all instances of Samplitude share the same ini files in
the Program Data directory.
The reason I let my wife run Samplitude during interviews and the
reason she likes to have all tracks visible at once is so that she
can monitor the waveforms to make sure we are recording. We’ve
caught issues this way before.
I guess if we have to keep swapping around ini files I will. I
actually created some bat files to do that automatically, but I
would like to have this just work.

Hi
Here’s a further idea, why not load up a second instance of
Samplitude, if possible, which can be configured for sighted
use. This would negate the need to keep loading up ini files.

Hi
Here’s a radical idea, may be our sighted friends and partners
need to adjust to how we work, and not the other way round. Steve
has developed the scripts in a way which means Samplitude has to
be set in a particular way. This is a limitation set down by how
the scripts work. Trying to work outside of these parameters will
cause the scripts to stop working at their optimum.

Hi Pete,
I am not a scripter, but I suppose your situation is not
compatible with the way Samplitude script work.
I would suggest the following.
1. Locate the folder where your Samplitude INI files are, create
a shortcut for this folder, and place it on your desktop so
you can access it quickly.
2. Copy the seven INI files this folder contains for each
workflow, you using the scripts as normal, and you doing an
interview with your wife having to see the four tracks. In
each case, paste them in a conveniently placed and named folder.
3. Each time you will need one of these workflows, open One of
these, copy its contents to your clipboard, and paste it to
your Samplitude INI files folder, the one you created a
shortcut for.
I tell you, it Will take you 30 seconds to change your workflow in
Samplitude, and I don't
see anything quicker.
Best,
JPR

I occasionally have my sighted wife run Samplitude when we are
recording an interview for eyes On success.
We record interviews with three tracks: one microphone for
each of us and one track for the Zoom connection. So I would
like to have 4 tracks visible on the screen at once.
The problem is that she can only see and monitor one track on
the screen at a time the way I have Samplitude configured to
use the scripts. For a blind user this is no problem since we
can only “see” one track at a time and just arrow down to see
more. Anyway, somehow she then manages to modify the screen
so that all tracks are visible to her plus the Master track.
Then when I go back and try to use the scripts to edit the
interview, the scripts don’t seem to work.
Question #1: What is the best solution for this? I’ve been
copying back my ini files after each time she uses Samplitude
but it seems there ought to be a better way.
Question #2: I’ve been trying to create a template that shows
all tracks on the screen. I couldn’t find any keystrokes in
the keystrokes documentation that seemed to be able to help me
here. What I was looking for is:
* A way to show more tracks. And/or control which tracks are
visible at the same time in the VIP
* A way for the scripts to tell me which tracks are
visible. The Control+T keystroke only seems to work in
the track manager but not the VIP, so I can’t tell what is
showing in the VIP.
Thanks for any advice.
