Ah, well thanks for checking this out. I was planning to do so and
just didn't get chance. Btw, I recently took some of that theory stuff
cause I was in a similar situation. Of course as a basist its not as
bad for keyboard and guitar types, well I guess other instruments as
well.:) The Amazing Slow Downer does work well, but I need to go back
and mess with it a bit more to see if I really want to register it.
Btw, I'm no expert on theory, but if you have some questions and
the're not to complex, I might be able to help. Drop me a note off
list and let me know what you need.

Esther, I know technically this is the wrong Scott hehe, but I just
checked out guitar shed and thought I'd report back to the list.
So far, the experience hasn't been too thrilling. I liked the idea
of a chord library because my theory is shocking, and the slow down
feature might have come in handy from time to time, muscle memory is
my excuse. Anyway, I couldn't actually figure out how to get either
feature going with VO. No menu items indicative to them, nothing in
the window chooser menu, or the item chooser. The main window seems
to be the tone tuner, which is handy in itself I guess. Lots of
unknown elements that can't be interracted with and have no help
tags, but there is popup buttons scattered amongst them that would
allow you to use the tuner by ear. That's the best I can say for it
so far, if anybody figures out how to get the slow down feature or
the chord library going please let me know.

Hi Scott,
This is off topic, apologites, but I recall that you used the
Amazing Slow
Downer once for guitar music after I told you that it was mostly
accessible.
There is an application on MacSanta today called Guitar Shed that
sounds
amazingly good for a guitar player, and also lets you slow down
music.
I don't know whether it's accessible, though. the TWIT
recommendations
sounded great (at near the end of the program, in the linked
reveiws -- don't
know whether it's worth listening through an hour of stuff,
though. You might
take a look:
http://www.astoundit.com/products/guitarshed/index.html
It's supposed to have a massive chord library, tuners, tablature
organizer.
The guy who recommended it kept saying it was an amazing amount
of stuff for a guitar player to find in one place for a list price
of $12.
So I don't know if it's accessible, but thought you might like to
have a look.
(You get to save an extra 20% off today, too.)
Cheers,
Esther

Actually yes, I have been using it, but unfortunately there is no
means to install the software using Missing Sync that I need for my
phone. I am using MSS by Code Factory which requires Active Sync for
installation. I've tried to get them to consider an alternative
means
for Mac users, but no luck yet.

Hey Scott. I have no experience whatsoever with active sync.
However I have heard that there is a mac replacement called missing
sync. Have you tried this? If not, it might be worth a look.

Just curious, I have really only two apps under windows I really
need. One of those is Active Sync for some software on my cell
phone that can't be used via the Mac and sometimes IE for some
testing. Is it possible to use Crossover to gain access to these
apps? I assume I'd have to install a windows-based screen reader.
Does this/would this work at all? How would you launch the windows
screen reader and then the application you need? Has anyone done
any of this successfully?
tnx
