Hi John, as far as I know, this isn't possible...all I've been doing for the moment is changing a parameter on the 003 and then going back to see what changed with Voice over in the plugin window. Of course, that's a problem if Voice over can't look at areas of the plugin your using. going by ea

Chuck, great stuff, thanks very much for sharing. One question I do have is for those working on a laptop keyboard, is there anyway to bring up some sort of num pad that anyone knows of. I remember I had a PC laptop in the past that could activate a num pad on the JKLUIO and 7 8 and 9 keys. C

yboards, they're not extended keyboards. They're simply a means of accessing the keyboard away from the lap top or cPU. There apparently was an older version of the Apple Blue Tooth keyboard which was extended. You might still be able to find it somewhere—I'm not sure. Slau On Nov 29,

Hi again Trahern, I haven't played around enough in ProTools to give a definitive answer, and I don't have 9 yet, but as far as I know it will depend on what version of PT 9 you are running i.e. there are production tool kits and various plugin bundles depending on what version of 9 you get. T

Hi Trahern, Like I said, check the avid website, but any controler should serve you well, depending on what specific features you want yourself. You'll get the best results if you research different types yourself and check on the avid website to see if they are compatible with protools, which
