Welcome Jim.

I'm currently enrolled in the Pro Tools 101 course taught at Weber State
University.
The instructor for the class is also part of this list.
Your iPad application sounds like something that could be of interest to me.
Especially since I have an iPad.
Feel free to contact me off list if you need some testing done.

Best,
J. R. Westmoreland

Subject: Hello - Jim Abbott, Syracuse posting

Hello everyone,

Jim Abbott from Syracuse University posting. I'm a professor here in
the School of Music (audio engineering), and am doing research in
collaboration with the Burton Blatt institute, developing ways to make
pro audio technologies more accessible.

It's called MTAP, Music Technology Access Project. It's a nascent
program, but development is well under way. The idea is to help
recording engineering be a viable professional pursuit regardless of
disability. Frankly I have been amazed to find how little work has
been done in this area.

We have been working with Pro Tools exclusively up to now. But plan to
expand it to other DAW systems (Logic, Cubase, Etc). To date we have
clobbered together a very reliable voice command system and a control
surface system using an iPad.

Anyhow I thought I'd reach out, and join the discussion. Your list is
great and I have already learned a lot looking through the posts.

Best,

Jim

Hi Jim,
 Welcome to the list. I have only been a member for about a week,
and to say this list is proactive is an under statement. This is the
future of moddern da recording. I run a commercial studio here in
Trinidad in the caribbean, and I am in the process of switching to pro
tools as my daw of choice. I am looking foward to contributing in any
way I can.

Hello Jim

I don't believe we've met.  Josh Dekaney has mentioned that I should get in 
touch with you.  I am a blind indevidual who lives in the syracuse.  I just 
started using pro tools in November.  I'll send you a message off list with my 
number.  I will be back in town on Monday.  We should get together for lunch or 
coffee.

Take care

Hi Jim,

Welcome to the list. I must apologize for not having gotten back to you. Your

reply or some such action. Again, sorry. Glad to see you found the list and 
hopefully you'll get some feedback. Keep us posted on your progress.

HI Jim,

Welcome to the list. Please feel free to get in touch off list. I spent last 
year focused on a Master's thesis which examined this very topic at Ryerson 
University in Toronto, Canada. I'd be happy to dialog with you about this.
