Hi Brian,
From what I understand, Apple removed that functionality in the newer Mac
books and Mac Book Pros. I'm still double-checking on that. Regarding the Blue
Tooth keyboards, they're not extended keyboards. They're simply a means of
accessing the keyboard away from the lap top or cPU. There apparently was an
older version of the Apple Blue Tooth keyboard which was extended. You might
still be able to find it somewhere—I'm not sure.

Chuck, great stuff, thanks very much for sharing.
One question I do have is for those working on a laptop keyboard, is there
anyway to bring up some sort of num pad that anyone knows of. I remember I had
a PC laptop in the past that could activate a num pad on the JKLUIO and 7 8 and
9 keys. Can this be achieved on the mac book pro's? If not, how do external
keyboards play with the laptop and does anyone have recommendations. A wireless
blue tuth keyboard would be fantastic of course for many reasons.
Cheers,
Brian.

Subject: Pro Tools Hot spot update
Hi Listers,
I just wanted to give a brief Hot spot update..
To make things easier with hot spots set up the num pad to watch hot spots
using num pad # 1 to watch the # 1 hot spot and so-forth..
When your in a plugin Waves Rcomp in this case find the threshold and other
important controls you want to find out what your controller is mapped to..
After you set your hot spots with "VO shift # 1>9" just hit the corresponding
num pad number for that hot spot and when you touch the correct fader or switch VoiceOver
announces any change made to that value..
For instance "Threshold minus 6" or what ever you change it to..
If you watch several parameters at once VoiceOver will announce the change of
that value and that it was the threshold if that is the one you moved a
control for..
Very cool!!
In a multi track session using full drum kit just set your hot spots the way you have your drum
track layout and for me I hit num pad number 1 for my kick and voiceover announces "watching
hot spot 1" and says the level as it changes, When you want to look at another track level
hit it again and VoiceOver announces "no longer watching hot spot 1"
in This way I was monitoring several tracks at once,
Including watching the master fader output with just the num pad..
If we could name the individual track meter when you would monitor the track it might
say, " Kick minus 2.5" or what ever when you jump back and forth VoiceOver
would announce the track name and its changed level..
..
Ya all give it a try!!
I think we need a thorough tutorial on hot spots! The VoiceOver help did not
seem to go in to enough depth for me..
Talk soon
