Hello,
What's wrong with having choices in applications to use for a particular
job? I for one like to have as many choices as I can find. The same was
true when I used the MS OS.

Why would you be searching for other alternitives when we don't need
any. Sound Studio is good enough.

Hi Hank,
Have you played much with Amadeus II? Because I think there are more
accessibility issues with that than with Sound Studio, but I think
that Jacob
should comment on this. I'm willing to believe that Amadeus Pro might
be
a program that should go on the accessibility list, but I haven't
checked this
out.
Cheers,
Esther

Folks,
The Mac Visionaries list has been asked to help in the compilation of
applications that are voiceOver compatible. I've already encouraged
Apple to
take a close look at Greg kearney's comprehensive list at his web
site.If
anyone has anything to add to this list, please check Greg's list
first and,
if it's not represented, mention it here. Please try not to get into
an
exhaustive explanation of how accessible or inaccessible it is. Use
your
judgement. If it's quite useable with voiceOver, include it. If it's
not
terribly useable, don't bother. Also, please don't include the list
below in
your reply as it will make your replies and subsequent replies bigger
and
bigger and will likely exceed the message body size limit. So, as
succinctly
as possilbe, mention any applications to add to the list below and
I'll
compile them into one list. If you happen to know the URL for the
manufacturer, that would be enormously helpful as well.
Thanks for your cooperation,
Slau
