Hi Chris, The main stumbling block with the Apollo products is that the "Console app" is not accessible using VoiceOver. The UAD plugs in PT 11 are accessible except the "console recall aax plug" which lets PT communicate with the console app which feeds the Apollo! I've been going back and forth with UA for the past 6 months including "UA Founder Bill Putnam , Jr" They have said several times they have all the documentation needed to make there UAD products Accessible with VoiceOver! Like I said before just waiting for that breakthrough UA announcement from NAMM!??? If not its time for "ML" action! ;) Talk soon Chuck
