Guys, My best friend, Ben, is down here visiting for a while. With him, he has brought along a Pacmate QX40 Classic original 40 cell braille display. No pacmate as well I can play with, he left that at home... LOL!
Anyway, later, I will be trying it out on the mac. I'm using it right now on my Windows 8.1 laptop with JAWS 16. I've been considering saving up for a display, but honestly, this is the first time that I really have experienced refreshable braille. He's brought it before, and I've played with it a little, but I'm looking at this from a totally different perspective. Rather than me just playing with it for fun like before, I'm really accodemically trying to use the thing as much as I can. He's agreed to let me borrow it the whole time he's visiting, and he just got here two days ago, so he'll be here for a good while yet. My point is, being I'm a ProTools user, I am curious, in thestudio, have any of you all used a display while recording, or mixing/mastering, (over all, producing?) If so, I would like to know some of the benefits you all have found where having a display really helped give you good tactile feedback of certain things, and maybe you all can give me some little exercises to try so I can see in realtime how awesome it really can be to have this in combination with the Voiceover speech. Please realize that the reason I'm asking on this list specifically is because I'm not wanting examples in general. I very specifically am asking about the display in conjunction with ProTools. For example, does it make viewing meters in realtime a bit easier, etc. I understand not everyone will have this exact same display. If you do, then all the better; please chime in. I'm asking more though on a general level. Thank you so much for any thoughts you may can provide for me to try.
