a touchscreen that recognizes the sensation of two or more fingers touching

JP,
There is a voice command thing that allows you to speak the number you
wish to dial. You should try this before you make up your mind.

I'm a pro musician and I wonder how accessible Garageband is. All I
need to be able to do is arm a track for recording, record a basic piano

keyboard, can I use Garage Band to do that with VO? Do I have to use the
of accessibility currently available in GarageBand.
Take care,

JPR,
to further clarify, if VO is on, you move around the screen until you
get what you want and then, while still keeping your finger in place, tap
once anywhere on the screen to actually type the character. That's what
split tap means. You don't find the key and press twice. You find the
