we need to email Apple about something
Folks, I've spoken with a few people regarding this issue and it appears that we need to email accessibil...@apple.com to ensure its resolution. The issue of counters in Pro Tools 10 not reading correctly under Mountain Lion appears to be a VoiceOver issue rather than an issue with Pro Tools itself. Not only are counters not being read but edit modes and tool selections are not being indicated. I encourage everybody to email accessibil...@apple.com identifying the issue, explaining it and urging Apple to resolve it. Just so everybody's straight with the details, here's the situation: Under Snow Leopard and Leopard, Pro Tools' counter displays read fine but under Mountain Lion, they're simply identified by labels like, Main Counter, numeric text, Edit Start Time, numeric text, etc. Under Snow Leopard and Leopard, edit modes and tool selections are spoken properly by VoiceOver but, under Mountain Lion, there's no way to tell what edit mode is selected or which tool is selected. We know that a programmer at Avid followed Apple's own guidelines and we know that the exact same version of Pro Tools behaves fine under snow Leopard and Leopard but not so under Mountain Lion. Please feel free to elucidate these facts in your own words and email accessibil...@apple.com and urge them to look into it. Thanks, Slau

Did it work with Lion? As I recall it did.

Re: we need to email Apple about something
Hi slau: Actually this all worked in regular lion as well. It is only mountain lion that is having these issues. There must be some other aps out there that are presenting the same sort of issues, maybe some spreadsheet or whatever. I'm not going to go and start trying a bunch of business aps to see, but it would be a big boost if we knew folks who were having similar issues with those kinds of programs since a lot more folks use them, including government sponsored organizations. Apple would give this a lot more consideration if this were the case.

Re: we need to email Apple about something
Hi Gord, Yeah, Lion worked OK, I simply misspoke by saying Leopard. I agree, in principle, that it would be a more significant problem if it affected more people but, having spoken with someone within Apple, they seemed a bit surprised and, under the circumstances, suggested emailing. I will surely follow up with that contact but figured a number of voices on the email front couldn't hurt and would most likely be successful in communicating the scope.

Question about Bouncing
OK, I know that most of you are really gonna probably advise against me doing this, but I have my reasons. Basically I have a session which I need to bounce to an mp3. The thing is, I don't have a lotta time. I know beyond a doubt the session sounds exactly as I want it to in the final bounced mp3. Is there not a way that I can bounce this down without it playing the session back while bouncing? I mean ok, I see perfectly the benefits for having p t do it that way, but some times that can really become extra ordinarily tedious. Thank you kindly, Christopher-Mark Gilland.

Re: Question about Bouncing
As far as I know, there is only realtime bouncing with PT. Logic will do offline bouncing, but obviously you'd still have to realtime bounce your project. HTH.
