Hi Oran, welcome to the list. Yes, Pro Tools, especially version 11, is quite accessible. There are still things that remain to be dealt with on the accessibility front but Avid is committed to working on it.
So, you've used Pro Tools up until a year ago? Well, the first thing you need to do is familiarize yourself with VoiceOver. That will be the key to being able to navigate quickly and efficiently. Using Pro Tools is much the same. You'll need to get used to the concept of interacting with various groups of controls and tables, etc. but that's a function of VoiceOver rather than anything to do with Pro Tools. Are you on the MacVisionaries list? You can get some general information there and ask questions. Otherwise, anything Pro Tools and VoiceOver related can be posed here.
