Hi everyone,
I've started messing around with my midi controllers, in conjunction with
garage band, and was wondering if anyone had some links to some good vst
plugins for garage band.
I've tried going to the native instruments site, but their page seems to be
flash. No show, no good.

Hi,
I'm Registered Blind and I've heard that the new iPhone is quite accessible,
I'm thinking about getting the new 16gb iPhone 3G S.
Is there a forum for Blind iPhone users where I can pick up tips and ideas on
APS to make the iPhone more accessible?
Thanks,
Mark

Does Garageband now support VST? It didn't as of iLife 08 which is
what I'm still using. If the newest version does support VST I think
I've just found a very compelling reason to upgrade it.
There was, at one time, a VST adapter for Garageband that would make

Last I heard GarageBand still didn't support VST, but there appears to
be a wrapper called Adapt which will make Garage band swallow a VST
plugin. It's listed as $99 but might be cheaper via some other reseller.

VO-t does work. The reason it wasn't working for either of us is that the
vo-cursor wasn't on the text in question. Some times the vo cursor doesn't
track with the insertion point. So when you use vo-t, always rout vo to
insertion just to be safe.

The iPhone is great, but a really important distinction to make is that it is

One other nice thing with VO is it draws a box on the screen to show
where focus is which helps a lot when collaborating with folks who can
see the screen. Jaws doesn't do this so when working together it can be
hard to tell where the Jaws user is on a page. No such problem with VO
