[Mac-access]: anyone going to see the apple watch please?
Hi is anyone going to see an apple watch next week? i would like to pre-order one but wish we could read up on how voiceover works. all we know is 2 fingers to scroll and a double tap on the watch display and a raise of the wrist (i think either will work) activates VO however will this make navigating the watch cumbersome? how can we just glance? i wish apple would have provided blind consumers wit a video on how VO works since we are ordering on tech articles alone Will --- Mac Access At Mac Access Dot Net --- To reply to this post, please address your message to mac-access@mac-access.net You can find an archive of all messages postedto the Mac-Access forum at the list's public Mail Archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/mac-access@mac-access.net/.

Re: [Mac-access]: does any one know how i can add custom sounds toSkype?
Hi! OK in Skype open Command+Comma and in the tool bar select notifications and then the details tab! 1, go to the event button and find the event you wish to add your own sound to! 2, Then make sure the check box is checked to play sound! 3, Next to that is a menu of the sounds you can pick from Arrow right to the bottom and you should find a Add/remove press enter on that! 4, You should be put into a window which will have a table of sounds in your sounds folder [see message about unzipping sounds] 5, If your sounds are in there you can select all of the sounds you want and stop interacting and hit the OK/done button! 6,If you are still on a page where the default button is dimmed just close it! 7, You should be back in Skype and on that Event you picked! 8, Go back into the table of sounds and the ones you added should now all be there, Just pick the one you want for that event and you should be done, There is a play sound button to click just to make sure! 9, And if you’ve got more sounds added go to another Event and do the same but this time the sounds should already be there for you!

I seem to remember that it was. Basically, it's going to be in one of two places, if it's there. Actually, no, excuse me. One of three places. Go into Skype preferences, obviously with Command+Comma. In here, go up and interact with the toolbar to get to your tabs. We want to look first at the sounds tab. See in there if there is a way to select and browse to a wave file on your system of your choice for each event. If not, then let's go back up to the toolbar, and have a gander in the notifications tab. If not there either, then the only other place would be in the toolbar, go to the Advanced tab.

Ah okay, I thought a menu option had to be set on the synth itself to enable the MIDI interface. As for the sound from the Synth? The MX49 is not equipped with internal speakers so no problem there smile. On 5/04/2015 11:55 AM, Christopher-Mark Gilland wrote: Not really, Dane. The only thing really that you may have to really do in the keyboard menus would be to turn off local mode. and even that's technically optional. In the meantime, if you dont' want to hear things out of sync coming out the keyboard's audio output, just turn the volume of the keyboard all the way down with it's master volume control. I mean, ok, you might have to go in to the thing and enable the USB midi portion of it, although I've never ever in all keyboard/digital piano/controllers ever seen the need to do this, so you should be just fine. When I referred to setting your input and output, I was talking about setting that on the midi track within Garageband or whatever itself on the software side. You shouldn't need sighted help for that. That's something Voiceover should deal with no problems.

I understand this isn't what you're asking, but to answer your question, I have to define this, so you'll understand in a second where I am going with this.

Not saying I'm God, and know everything, cause I definitely don't, but this much, I do! know. OK, so with all of that said, let's address your question at hand... The short answer is, Garageband will definitely do midi. If you don't plan to record, but just want to play, then Audacity or even Main Stage might be your best bet. The thing however is, just know that if you want to get the sounds from your keyboard, it may take a little more work. First of all, does your keyboard have built in speakers?

You're going to most likely need a midi to USB converter, because obviously, the mac doesn't have built in round midi in and out and through ports. There is a nice device called the midi Uno that would work with this. Basically, it's a Y cable. One end has 3 of the male round plugs. One for in, one for out, and one for through. So, you'd connect that end to your keyboard, and leave the through cable dangling if you don't have a through port on the keyboard... it won't hurt anything. The other end is a standard USB plug. That would go into the USB port on your mac. I think they're somewhere like around $50 or so. Amazong should have them. I've had mine for about 5 years now, so I can't tell ya if they still exist, but, I'd definitely look. If your keyboard actually connects via USB, not the round midi plugs, then just use a standard plug and play USB cable, and you'll be good to go. If you want to then play midi with the built in instruments, then you'll open up your DAW, (Digital Audio workstation,) of choice, be it Garageband, Audacity, whatever, and you'll want to set your midi output to your keyboard midi controller. So, if you're using an Uno, or some sort of midi to USB converter, it should, provided you have the drivers properly installed, show up in your output list. You'd just pick it, and boom, you're done.

Yeah, aside from Garageband, I really don't know of anything that is just midi that could do only basic midi functions as what I use obviously, with ProTools is a full fledged DAW.

I didn’t mean anything that detailed. I simply want a program that uses pure midi, can export and import midi, and could optionally save the midi as mp3. I’ve heard that GarageBand on OS X 10.10 is inaccessible in some ways, so I simply want a simple, easily learned and accessible editor that’ll work with midi so that I can just play using the keyboard. I have now, like in the last hour, gone through the keyboard’s array of sounds and found them a little low quality, the keyboard is an older model, so I may just play using the keyboard then export to mp3 or something then all the tracks are good and all, so that’s what I want to do.

Hi! OK if you get the sounds unzipped then copy them and add them to the sounds folder in your home directory! In finder hit either VO+m or Control+f3! Then press g to go to the go menu and with either vo keys or Quicknav on arrow down to Library and hit enter! In list view interact and type s o and you should end up on your sounds folder! Use either Command+down arrow or Command+o to open that folder and paste your sounds in there! Look for the message about adding sounds to Skype for further help!

Re: [Mac-access]: midi keyboard usage within the mac
You're talking two totally different things here. Let's get one thing totally straight. Midi isn't audio. All that midi basically is are different numerical values for certain triggered events, with 1's and 0's attached to it. Basically 0 means the event is off, while 1 means it is on. Every single thing you do with the keyboard is associated with a midi event, as they are called. I understand this isn't what you're asking, but to answer your question, I have to define this, so you'll understand in a second where I am going with this. So what happens with midi is, these events are sent to your midi hardware or software controller either on the input, or on the output side. Trust me with this, I am an audio engineer, so I know what I'm talking about, believe me. I've done this stuff for years. Not saying I'm God, and know everything, cause I definitely don't, but this much, I do! know. OK, so with all of that said, let's address your question at hand... The short answer is, Garageband will definitely do midi. If you don't plan to record, but just want to play, then Audacity or even Main Stage might be your best bet. The thing however is, just know that if you want to get the sounds from your keyboard, it may take a little more work. First of all, does your keyboard have built in speakers? If not, you'll need to somehow get the keyboard going to a line source like the line in of your mac, or to a mixer etc. I don't know your setup, so it's kind of hard for me to really determine e everything right up front without more info. You're going to most likely need a midi to USB converter, because obviously, the mac doesn't have built in round midi in and out and through ports. There is a nice device called the midi Uno that would work with this. Basically, it's a Y cable. One end has 3 of the male round plugs. One for in, one for out, and one for through. So, you'd connect that end to your keyboard, and leave the through cable dangling if you don't have a through port on the keyboard... it won't hurt anything. The other end is a standard USB plug. That would go into the USB port on your mac. I think they're somewhere like around $50 or so. Amazong should have them. I've had mine for about 5 years now, so I can't tell ya if they still exist, but, I'd definitely look. If your keyboard actually connects via USB, not the round midi plugs, then just use a standard plug and play USB cable, and you'll be good to go. If you want to then play midi with the built in instruments, then you'll open up your DAW, (Digital Audio workstation,) of choice, be it Garageband, Audacity, whatever, and you'll want to set your midi output to your keyboard midi controller. So, if you're using an Uno, or some sort of midi to USB converter, it should, provided you have the drivers properly installed, show up in your output list. You'd just pick it, and boom, you're done. Now you'll play the midi file just like you normally would and it then should come out your keyboard speakers, or if no speakers, it'll get routed to your keyboard's line out/headphone out which you then have fed back into a line in source of some type. If you wanna record using the sounds in the keyboard, this gets a little more complecated. Basically, keeping it general, and elementary, you'd need, even if there are! built in speakers, to connect a stereo patch cable to the line out, preferred, or if you don't have one, the headphone jack of the keyboard, and the other end into a channel on your interface/mixer, or if you don't have one, then directly to your line in on the mac. Fire up your DAW of choice. Open the midi file, or record it like normal, then in your project, create a stereo audio track for your final master mix, arm it for recording if needed, then making sure none of your midi tracks are armed, so you don't accidentally record over them, hit record in the software of your choice, and then basically allow the midi to play through your keyboard, and get routed out the keyboard to the line in of your mixer/interface/line in jack on the mac, therefore capturing that audio and recording it to the stereo audio track you just created. Then, once done, delete all the midi tracks from the project, leaving only the one audio track, and then mix/bounce/render, however the DAW calls it, it down to either a wave file, or an mp3. Preferably a wave file, so that it won't be compressed or with any artifacts. You can later go back and encode that wave to an mp3 file, if it be needed. I do offer tech support on this type thing, so if you need help, give me a call on Monday, and I can definitely help you with this. My rates are $15 an hour, or $25 flat rate for unlimited tech support during business hours for one whole month. I take PayPal, and I also can over the phone process Visa and Mastercards if it be a last resort. I prefer PayPal though as the other way can
Re: [Mac-access]: does any one know of a way of un zipping things onthe mac?
It should automatically do this. Just hit command+O on the zip file, and it will extract to it's own folder within the same folder as the .zip file. Now, this said, there are! yes, apps to do this that are really really good. I personally love The Unarchiver. As far as I know, yes, it is indeed in the mac app store, and is free the last I looked. What I love about this app is a few things. Firstly, I love that you can actually configure it to ask you each time you command+O on a file, where you want it to extract. So, say you didn't want it going into the same directory as the actual zip file. No problem! OSX natively won't let you do this. The other thing about it I love is it supports unzipping of password protected zip files, as well as other formats like tarballs, tar.gz's, tar.bz2's, RAR's, 7z's, etc. Pardon my language, but it's a damn! nice utility!

Re: [Mac-access]: midi keyboard usage within the mac
Well, goodness. I didn’t mean anything that detailed. I simply want a program that uses pure midi, can export and import midi, and could optionally save the midi as mp3. I’ve heard that GarageBand on OS X 10.10 is inaccessible in some ways, so I simply want a simple, easily learned and accessible editor that’ll work with midi so that I can just play using the keyboard. I have now, like in the last hour, gone through the keyboard’s array of sounds and found them a little low quality, the keyboard is an older model, so I may just play using the keyboard then export to mp3 or something then all the tracks are good and all, so that’s what I want to do. On Apr 4, 2015, at 5:20 PM, Christopher-Mark Gilland clgillan...@gmail.com wrote: You're talking two totally different things here. Let's get one thing totally straight. Midi isn't audio. All that midi basically is are different numerical values for certain triggered events, with 1's and 0's attached to it. Basically 0 means the event is off, while 1 means it is on. Every single thing you do with the keyboard is associated with a midi event, as they are called. I understand this isn't what you're asking, but to answer your question, I have to define this, so you'll understand in a second where I am going with this. So what happens with midi is, these events are sent to your midi hardware or software controller either on the input, or on the output side. Trust me with this, I am an audio engineer, so I know what I'm talking about, believe me. I've done this stuff for years. Not saying I'm God, and know everything, cause I definitely don't, but this much, I do! know. OK, so with all of that said, let's address your question at hand... The short answer is, Garageband will definitely do midi. If you don't plan to record, but just want to play, then Audacity or even Main Stage might be your best bet. The thing however is, just know that if you want to get the sounds from your keyboard, it may take a little more work. First of all, does your keyboard have built in speakers? If not, you'll need to somehow get the keyboard going to a line source like the line in of your mac, or to a mixer etc. I don't know your setup, so it's kind of hard for me to really determine e everything right up front without more info. You're going to most likely need a midi to USB converter, because obviously, the mac doesn't have built in round midi in and out and through ports. There is a nice device called the midi Uno that would work with this. Basically, it's a Y cable. One end has 3 of the male round plugs. One for in, one for out, and one for through. So, you'd connect that end to your keyboard, and leave the through cable dangling if you don't have a through port on the keyboard... it won't hurt anything. The other end is a standard USB plug. That would go into the USB port on your mac. I think they're somewhere like around $50 or so. Amazong should have them. I've had mine for about 5 years now, so I can't tell ya if they still exist, but, I'd definitely look. If your keyboard actually connects via USB, not the round midi plugs, then just use a standard plug and play USB cable, and you'll be good to go. If you want to then play midi with the built in instruments, then you'll open up your DAW, (Digital Audio workstation,) of choice, be it Garageband, Audacity, whatever, and you'll want to set your midi output to your keyboard midi controller. So, if you're using an Uno, or some sort of midi to USB converter, it should, provided you have the drivers properly installed, show up in your output list. You'd just pick it, and boom, you're done. Now you'll play the midi file just like you normally would and it then should come out your keyboard speakers, or if no speakers, it'll get routed to your keyboard's line out/headphone out which you then have fed back into a line in source of some type. If you wanna record using the sounds in the keyboard, this gets a little more complecated. Basically, keeping it general, and elementary, you'd need, even if there are! built in speakers, to connect a stereo patch cable to the line out, preferred, or if you don't have one, the headphone jack of the keyboard, and the other end into a channel on your interface/mixer, or if you don't have one, then directly to your line in on the mac. Fire up your DAW of choice. Open the midi file, or record it like normal, then in your project, create a stereo audio track for your final master mix, arm it for recording if needed, then making sure none of your midi tracks are armed, so you don't accidentally record over them, hit record in the software of your choice, and then basically allow the midi to play through your keyboard, and get routed out the keyboard to the line in of your mixer/interface/line in jack on the mac, therefore capturing that audio and

Re: [Mac-access]: does any one know how i can add custom sounds toSkype?
I'd need to check, as I know with the Windows version, you definitely can, but I can't recall if the option is also there on the Mac version. I seem to remember that it was. Basically, it's going to be in one of two places, if it's there. Actually, no, excuse me. One of three places. Go into Skype preferences, obviously with Command+Comma. In here, go up and interact with the toolbar to get to your tabs. We want to look first at the sounds tab. See in there if there is a way to select and browse to a wave file on your system of your choice for each event. If not, then let's go back up to the toolbar, and have a gander in the notifications tab. If not there either, then the only other place would be in the toolbar, go to the Advanced tab. If it's not there, then I'm sorry to say, you're most likely then out of luck, short of *maybe!* manually editting a PList preference file... Oh! Joy!... Not?

Re: [Mac-access]: midi keyboard usage within the mac
Sorry for being so detailed. I just wanted to be sure that you understood. You said you wanted to use the built in sounds. A lot of people don't understand that midi in and of itself won't produce sounds out the keyboard. I have a real bad habbit of doing this and giving far more detail than necessary, guilty as charged, but I would have hated for you to have gotten an answer, then wonderred why just simply plugging a midi cable or whatever in wasn't working. Pardon the novel-writing. Did you get anything helpful though out of my message? I hope so?

What do you mean? Is this basically like a zip file which has various sounds you need to unzip to use within Skype? Sorry, I just don't totally get your dilimma. Nevertheless, The Unarchiver should be able to do it no problem. Realize though that if it's simply just a .zip file, OSX already can do this.
