Re: Oracle
Does that have to do anything with protools???

As such it is a form of divination. The word oracle comes from the Latin verb ōrāre to speak and properly refers to the priest or priestess uttering the prediction. In extended use, oraclemay also refer to the site of the oracle, and to the oracular utterances themselves, called khrēsmoi (χρησμοί) in Greek. Oracles were thought to be portals through which the gods spoke directly to people. In this sense they were different from seers (manteis, μάντεις) who interpreted signs sent by the gods through bird signs, animal entrails, and other various methods.[1] The most important oracles of Greek antiquity were Pythia, priestess to Apollo at Delphi, and the oracle of Dione and Zeus at Dodona in Epirus. Other temples of Apollo were located at Didyma on the coast of Asia Minor, at Corinth and Bassae in the Peloponnese, and at the islands of Delos andAegina in the Aegean Sea. Only the Delphic Oracle was a male; all others were female.[2] The Sibylline Oracles are a collection of oracular utterances written in Greek hexameters ascribed to the Sibyls, prophetesses who uttered divine revelations in a frenzied state. please visit web site http://vb.mediu.edu.my/showthread.php?t=20631 -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Pro Tools Accessibility group.

protools vs sonar with caketalking
Hi guys, I'm interested in recording soft synths and also recording some audio like my piano plus voice etc. I'm currently using sonar and the caketalking scripts under windows, running bootcamp on my mac. In short, for all my other programs I am a convinced mac user. I'm experiencing some serious stability issues with sonar and windows and I'm slowly getting really sick of that. About one and a half years ago I heard for the first time a podcast by kevin Reeves about pro tools being accessible and was really thrilled. However, back then he concluded with the notion that it was great for recording audio but not if you wanted to record soft synths and work a lot with midi editing etc. That was one of the main reasons I went for sonar back then. Could anyone on this list advice me if there has been any significant progress on that matter. Another reason for me for going for sonar back then was the extensive documentation provided especially for blind users by dancingdots, since I was a total new comer on this subject. I don't expect the learning curve on pro tools to be low, though. As composer/arranger I've produced my work as sheet music, however I want to be able to produce it as well using sophisticated soft synth sounds and sample libraries. Is that doable with pt? Well, that's about it. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks a lot! Cheers Thomas
Re: protools vs sonar with caketalking
Hi Poppa, There seem to be some incompatibility issues due to the fact that I'm using the Roland octa-capture which was recommended to me by dancingdots, however have just been finding out recently that officially macs running windows are not supported. I actually have not gotten any error reports directly related to the audio interface, though. However, sonar has been crashing quite often after inserting instances of e.g. the demension pro synth, which should not be any big deal at all. Also there are problems with some caketalking hotkeys that inspite of the good setup cause sonar to crash. I'm still trying to get to the bottom of this problem, maybe that's also a matter of reinstalling sonar all the way. The bottom line is that I would love to be able to do everything on the mac side of things without having to rely on the entire windows 7 story at all. I don't know, wether this is currently realistic. Don't get me wrong, especially as a rather inexperienced user of audio software I'm actually quite happy with something like the caketalking scripts and their documentation, but I hope there might come a day that I'll be able to say bye-bye to windows all together. Actually, the same goes for the interminable search foor accessible notation software like sibelius or finale for the mac. Currently I'm still using sibelius3 on windows xp with Jaws 6.1 and the sibspeaking scripts of dancingdots. Works perfectly, but hopelessly out of date! But what to do if there doesn't seem to be an alternative solution that does the same job. Well, hope that makes things a little clearer. Still very grateful for any input on these issues.
