Quite correct Danny: it was indeed Vagus LA that was the multitrack offering. I do not ever recall that it was or could be made accessible with JAWS via clunky crashy windows-note the small w that is on purpose. I understand that most of the basic functions can be done with Sound Forge on the Mac. We're talking cutting, pasting, setting markers and so forth. There remain-as I indicated before-some issues. For example, when ever you go in to the record dialog, Voice Over tends to say "busy busy busy" a lot. Also, working with regions seems not to be possible. Also, recalling presets seems not to be possible either. These are very nearly deal breakers for me: however, I ain't decided yet. Frankly, I know that there are some blind Mac users who have sort of played with the demo version. Kevin Reves, if you happen to be reading this, feel free to jump in here as I would like to know whether or not any of these matters have been addressed by Sony.
AS for Amadeus Pro, I do use it a lot. My big thing is remastering-taking the scratches and noise out of vinyl disks, hiss removal from analog cassette tapes and so on. For this, I use a combination of Amadeus Pro with RX version 2.10 plugins. RX is not totally accessible: yet, it's accessible enough to let me do what I most need to do. I wish I could spring for RX pro: but, if I am going to move up to Sound Forge-which I understand makes use of the same digital processing algorithms as RX-well, RX pro will jus have to wait.
