ProTools accessible on PC, true or false?

2014-05-18 Thread Jean-Philippe Rykiel
Hi all, on a French list, someone claims to use ProTools on his PC. I don't believe him, but I thought I would ask anyway. Is this guy a joker? Best, JPR -- http://www.jprykiel.com http://soundcloud.com/ryksounet http://twitter.com/ryksounet http://facebook.com/jeanphilipperykiel -- You

Not to be rude, but, you might discourage him from filling us in on something really cool here by chastising him like that, calling him a joker. I personally have never heard of this being done. That however said, rather than calling him unneeded names, I'd ask him to do tell. If he is

Well if he is fully sighted it is possible. As we all know, ProTools on the pc is not accessable to the blind as yet. Do we know if this guy is visually impaired? I don't remember reading in that e-mail saying that he is blind. -Original Message- From: ptaccess@googlegroups.com

Hi! I'm sorry if this has been discussed before and if I'm therefore double-posting but I couldn't find something specific on this topic in this group. Thing is, I'm trying to learn pro tools, and therefor I also need to know what can be done and what can't, so I know if it's me who's messing

Hello, I too use loops in a similar manner to you. in version 8, 9 and 10 of Pro Tools the workspace windows isn't accessible at all. There for it wasn't easy to work with loops and i switched to using reaper on the mac instead. As such i haven't spent the money for Pro Tools 11 yet, partly

Hi Jean-Philippe, With WindowEyes, there is a degree of accessibility but not as good as with VoiceOver. That said, I'm not sure about version 11 because the information I have is based on several versions ago. Perhaps things have improved a bit. I'm honestly not sure. Best, Slau On May 18,

I sincerely hope you get a reply to this... I just spent the last two hours tinkering with Pro Tools, to see if I could figure it out for you, but I can't find the elastic button that seems (according to google), to apply elastic audio to the track... Anyone found this? I'm sure Chuck or

No, although sometimes with Jaws I have been able to create plugin presets because I could get into the interface of some third party plugs to load audio samples etc. But for actually doing real work, forget it. Gord On May 18, 2014, at 6:01 AM, Jean-Philippe Rykiel jpryk...@gmail.com wrote:

Oh a long time ago around version 6, some things worked because the transport graphics had labels we could read with Jaws and tell what color they were. But now there is virtually no way to know if a track is armed or even what track is currently highlighted. There is no object level
