Can't open pro tools 2019 on Catalina
Hey all, I've just updated to Catalina and I can now no longer open pro tools. When I try it just sits there for a while. I opened the force quit window and sure enough it was not responding. I tried this a few times with no luck. Is this just a matter of needing to update to Pro tools 2020.3?

Flo Tools 2020.3 is out
Just an FYI that last night the latest version of Flo Tools, version 2020.3 compatible with Pro Tools 2020.3, was released. Catalina really clamped down on a few things with the installer and a few people had problems running the installer so we had a number of things to fix so that the installation ran smoothly. Any users who have not yet downloaded the installer or downloaded it before yesterday should re-download the installer from FloTools.org whenever you can.

Re: Flo Tools question
Hi Martin, Flo Tools, from practically day one, had the capability of announcing track selection while navigating with Control P and Semicolon. That was a function of a keyboard shortcut triggering a macro to speak selected tracks. Unfortunately, when Avid natively added the automatic speaking of tracks, it was not done in as comprehensive a way as Flo Tools and, coincidentally, caused VoiceOver to stutter. We've since removed the functionality from the Flo Tools side. Monitoring track selection on a constant basis is something Flo Tools can conceivably do and we even had a proof-of-concept script that could speak volume and pan levels on the fly as you touched those controls on a surface. The problem was that Flo Tools, not yet being a stand-alone application, could not communicate with Pro Tools directly to know which tracks are shown or hidden at any given point. Avid's implementation of the automatic speaking of tracks was an attempt to pave the way for the type of functionality you're describing. It would affect a relatively small portion of the user base and, unless done well, could potantially lead to a situation where user preferences on verbosity and such could only be controlled by Avid. Personally, I feel that it's not Avid's responsibility to deal with accessibility on that level. It's an incredibly slippery slope. There are others who will vehemently disagree. As with anything related to accessibility, there are strong feelings in every direction. The preferences of novice users are not the preferences of professionals and even professionals will vary in opinion as to what works and what doesn't. To me, the only solution that truly makes sense in the long run is to have an open-source, third party application tied to Pro Tools directly through Eucon. Avid shouldn't be responsible for accessibility behavior but rather making their UI hook into the Accessibility API and let an open-source community define behavior. Anyway, just some thoughts.

Re: Flo Tools question
Now that would be as handy as a pocket on the shirt. Perhaps it may already exist and a primeval form like we monitor the effects?

Flo Tools question
Hello Slau and others! Since some Pro and Flo Tools versions we have the great function, that the selected track is announced when pressing Control+P and Control+Semicolon. In addition to that, Flo Tools offers the possibility to announce all selected tracks by pressing Shift+Option+L. Could it be possible that Flo Tools also announces a changing track selection done on a surface? In EUCon I set "Select by Touch". So a track becomes selected in the tracklist table , when the corresponding fader on the surface is touched. An auto announcing of that selection would be perfect.
