Hi JP, I know about this other solution, I’ve heard it in action and spoken to
the guy who uses it...you can’t compare it with Samplitude Access, but that
doesn’t mean it’s not relevant to those people who use it...and there lies the
issue. BTW, it’s only in German. Steve.

Dear Steve,
I don't know about the other solutions, but 2 things about yours are that, 1,
it's free, and 2, it works with the English version of Samplitude,
a good thing maybe if you agree, would be to post to this forum about the
existence of Samplitude access, just to let people know that it's available.
Of course, everyone will clame his solution is the best, and that may be a
problem, some might work in German, some with NVDA, Who knows. But the more
people know about Samplitude access, the better it is don't you think?
Best regards,
JP

Like the idea steve. It has my full support and I’ll continue to contribute
wherever I can. I do believe we as the samplitude access community should stick
together and first discuss requests and problems amongst ourselves before
posting to that forum. Just my thought.
cheers

Ok, I’ve received this from Tom Wolfe, who has been my accessibility contact
at Magix. Understandably, I think he is being pushed and pulled in different
directions by a number of users who require access to their products...and I’m
probably one of them . Anyway, I applaud this move by Magix to create a focal
point for all VIP users, whether it’s with their own personal solution or not.
It’s obviously been made in order to make his life easier and to optimise any
time he has. This way he should be able to identify and target issues much
easier, rather than trying to please different people who are using different
solutions., but where does this leave us? Well, personally I think this is a
very good move if the users involved can actually agree and work together on
solutions. To make you aware, there is at least one other solution being used
in Germany, but it is nothing like Samplitude Access at all. users of this
solution will obviously want a voice, but in my experience, it’s quite a loud
one . So, what I’m getting at, is Samplitude Access will continue regardless
of any other solution, it won’t incorporate other solutions, unless it was for
the benefit of the project. The aim with magix is to give them feedback on the
current access, what needs doing and how that is implemented...and Samplitude
Access is in the very best place to be the vehicle for that, IMO, that isn’t in
question at all.
So, I would hope we still continue down the path we’re set on and that we
stick together as a community, rather than split off and start requesting and
watering down any accessibility voiced to Magix. We can work together for the
best outcome and make our voices heard as 1 united community. I can envisage
some pretty interesting requests from other solutions, but I would hope that
Tom can filter down any requests into something that can be used across the
board, rather than being specifically for 1 solution.
Interesting times for sure and I’d be interested to hear what you think.
Cheers Steve.

This mail is in english, please read my last mail for the german version
Diese Mail ist in english, bitte lesen sie meine letzte mail für die deutsche
Version
Hello,
my name is Thomas Wolf, some of you already know me as Tom. I am the contact
person and the interface of the requests for accessiblility into Samplitude
development team. Together with you I want to significantly improve access to
Samplitude and Sequoia.
To achieve this I would like to have a networking of all of you, because in
the last months new groups or mailing lists approached to me, mutually knew
nothing of each other and then possibly even have been working on their own
solutionsthat maybe was already there and then not work consistently.
This is an important thing, which we all have to work together, so I ask you
to follow me into the Accessibility Forum just "newly" created. I understand
that mailing lists are sometimes easier to use, but I would hope that we all
work together to find their way to this forum.
the address is: http://support2.magix.net/boards/samplitude/
Anyone can create an account because the captcha is in contrast to the trial
downloads audio capable ;-) PS: at the trial downloads captcha I care soon.
There is a new category: "Accessibility / Barrierefreiheit"
In it there are three forums:
- General Discussions / Allgemeine Themen
- Feature Requests / Feature-Anfrage
- Bugreports / Fehlerberichte
In the three forums please german and english should be spoken, so it does
not occur two different worlds. I will be active in the forums. I also ask the
admins of mailing lists to be active there and perhaps really to lay the
communication there.
I am also willing to adjust threads yet, perhaps divided into various screen
reader, I'm open to suggestions.
Why do I do this? I would like to be there for all, but I really can not
afford this, if there are many different places. Someone comes then too short,
and nobody wants that. I really can be effective only in one place. Please
respect that. The forum is the right place, i think. Although I am now logged
in mailing lists, I can really only be active in the forum. Anything else would
be only temporary and would in the long run not be a profit. But with the forum
we can actually create all together a platform that helps everyone. Please
share this information with any one you know, carry the forum out further in
all mailing lists and groups in which you are active.
"Great things are done together" - With this sentence i finish this post and
wish you a nice weekend.
greetings from Dresden
Tom
