Hi all.
It's in situations like these that I wish there was an equivalent of
hotspot clicker for VoiceOver.
Melodyne Assistant is accessible with JAWS, with a very reasonably
priced hotset developed by a hotspot clicker maestro, here if you're
interested.

I know it won't help anyMac user, but it means that accessibility on the
Mac side still has to improve quite a bit.
Best,
JPR

Would Keyboard Maestro not be able to cope with this on Mac?

Keyboard Maestro is a macro program capable of clicking screen or window locations. I'm sure it does anything Hot Spot Clicker does.

I don't use Melodyne so I've never created any macros for it.

There's a bit more to HSC than most other solutions, particularly when
it comes to verification of hotspots. You can specify screen
coordinates relative to a bunch of other landmarks, verify colours to
be reasonably sure you're clicking the right thing and account for
differences in window size etc. Then there's spot rings and the
ability to communicate directly with the JAWS API so that you can
pretty much build a custom user interface if you know what you're
doing. Probably a heap more stuff that I'm missing too. Most HSC sets
aren't, but it can be super elegant for a bolt-on solution in the
hands of someone who cares about UX.

Note: I'm not plugging it as a fan boy, it's more a case of being
frustrated that this stuff can't be done with any other screen reader
yet so far as I know.

I'm sure HSC with JAWS is fantastic, for sure. I suspect, however, that Keyboard Maestro can do pretty much everything that HSC can do but it's just not the easiest program to master when assembling rules. There's also the ability to speak a confirmation when a task has successfully run. If I were more of a code monkey, I'd delve into it more but, for now, doing simple clicks relative to focused windows is quite easy. It's frustrating, however, when an inaccessible framework is used so that, regardless of a precise click, the resulting pop-up window is unreadable. Crap.

Voice over does have a basic hot spotting functionality which can be useful. it along with some of VO’s other advanced features not found in other screen readers made it possible for me to convert all the Nectar, Alloy and Ozone presets into Reaper presets without sighted assistance. That being said from all i read up on keyboard metro it seems to be very comparable to HSC as a fuller solution. But as the blind community is smaller here, and as such less niche revenue to be made from selling maestro sets (if its even possible to sell them on anything other than the honor system) means no one has yet bother to take the time to make and or share much sets yet. After all most seem to be content with just dual booting and going back to windows when they hit a proverbial wall on OS X. Not a put down, but when you got paid word to do its easier to go back to what you know works than try to forge ahead. Also situations like the one Slau described also exist on windows and are there is some stuff you can HSC your way around last i checked. Alas there is the classic chicken and egg problem, while our numbers are low, and there isn’t the monetary incentive like there is with HSC, we’ll be slowly chipping away at these holes, , but the numbers probably won’t grow till more of the holes get filled in.

That being said, The waves stuff seem to be accessible these days Waves Tune may be worth a look then. Some people say they had success with AutoTune on here as well, and from what little i attempted to use them (i don’t have perfect pitch so i don’t do much pitch correction work) Nectar’s Pitch Correction and Harmony stuff seems like its workable with VO. And for what it’s worth if its simple touch ups, the elastic audio and pitch plug in tools in Pro Tools is available. So if you don’t specifically need Melodime then perhaps one of the alternatives may do the job.

Unless it's changed since Mavericks, VoiceOvers hotspot function can
only be bound to GUI elements that are already visible to VO. Useful
for cutting down the amount of button bashing for sure, but not really
comparable. Has that changed?

I'd be really interested to read about how you got those presets saved
without sighted assistance if you get a few spare mins to write about
it. I'm lucky because I can always ask for assistance via the
girlfriend, but would rather do that type of gruntwork independently
if it's possible.

Can’t speak for Yosemite or El Cap yet as my main DAW is still on Mavericks. So yes that limitation still exist. hence my calling it basic hot spotting functionality. In this case it’s specific to the Isotope stuff. Some plugs revealed more than others but short version is go into the plugs settings and change keyboard mode to full. that way you and change presets with up and down arrows. Set a HotSpot to watch the comment field and set one to mark the drop down menu to save a preset. In Finder find the folder where the isotope presets are saved and use the copy last spoken phrase to clipboard as text to save the name of the preset to the clipboard. Just down arrow through the presets and save. First two are usually Default and last changed preset then the presets in the order they are listed in the folder in finder.Bias seems to reveal something in OS X so will be trying something similar to see if i can’t coax some presets out of it next.

That being said, if the GF has the patience i think you should consider giving keyboard maestro a look when you get a chance.

The gf has limitless patience but very limited time. I have the polar
opposite lol.

Keep me posted on what you learn about Bias. I had a good conversation
with a chap in their US support team. They know diddly squat about
accessibility as things stand, but might be able to work on it. I've
sent them in a screen capture video that gives a quick demo of how I
use some other amp sims via automation parameters and showing them
that currently Bias gives me nothing to work with, but that was
specific to Windows. It'd be nice to be able to tell them that it'd be
less work for them to tackle OS X, and it might get me doing more
tracking in PT again.

Cheers
