Ed,
Thank you for perhaps the most positive statement regarding
accessibility that I have ever read from any company or
oganization. Especially impressive, beyond your ongoing commitment
to increased accessibility, is your interest in involving third-party
plug-in manufacturers in the process! This hints at industry-wide
change in a positive direction. Honestly, most days, I have felt
like lasting positive change is a pipe dream.
I'm still a Windows user of a competing product, but when I have the
necessary funds, be asured I will be switching to ProTools on the Mac.
Thank you to all involved in this ongoing process, from the folks at
Avid, Apple, other manufacturers, but especially to the blind audio
professionals on this list. This, if nothing else, is a sign of what
respectful professional dialog can accomplish, compared with
infighting, competing interests and barely legible wining that one
sees elsewhere, often among amateur hobbyists with very little at steak.
Hopefully, third-party manufacturers will quickly realize the
benefits of being part of these improvements for us, more blind folks
will be able to participate in college recording programs with little
or know special modification, and especially, we may be able to
simply walk into any studio running the newest ProTools and get to
work. For all I know, a lot of this is already possible.
Thanks again for the much needed positive news.
Can I distribute your update in a few other places? No doubt, others
are also tired of swimming against the tide, especially when so many
boats are finally drifting in the right direction so-to-speak.
Chris
