Hi Pavel, Two things that are strongly recommended for blind users of Pro Tools are an Apple Pro keyboard and a control surface. Your budget will largely dictate which control surface you'll end up buying. Another potential issue is whether you need that surface to work with other DAWs.

I do not use the mixing software as I use Protools to do the mixing. I actually do not if the mixing software for Pro40 is accessible. I think it is, though. Have you gone into a music shop that carries such hardwares to physically check them out? That is how I did my research; took

Andy, sweetwater.com is a great place to buy. Depending on the channels I think the Saffire Pro40 is a good start. It connects using Firewire, has eight channel inputs, two outputs for speakers, two headphone jacks, and consists of knobs for level controls and buttons for phamtom powered

Currently, I have the pro 40, and though the buttons are great, as I understand and the last time I checked, the mix control software is not accessible. That is why I am looking in to another option like the apogee interfaces. Brian > On Nov 30, 2015, at 1:18 PM, Vaughn Brown

Hi Andy, Regarding the control surface and interface, I'd recommend the S3 and an Apogee Ensemble Thunderbolt. If, as you say, price isn't of concern, you'll want to eventually get the Pro Tools Dock when it comes out early next year to give you better transport control and scrub wheel

Andy, Good to see you jumping in to pro tools! You should be fine with the USB slots on the mac book pro. What I do is plug in my pro tools license in to my keyboard USB port. That should leave the other for your interface. Not sure if you could use a USB hub for more ports. Brian > On Nov

Agreed with the Apogee Ensemble recommendation, and if you act fast its onside for Black friday/cyber monday direct from Apogee for about $500 less than it normally goes for. Also the apple keyboard has unpowered USB ports so if the HD has its own external power supply it will work. If it
