[MusicTlk] MusicTlk Digest, Vol 179, Issue 16

Wed Jul 31 12:21:12 UTC 2019

Thank you for the Google Groups email list. To clarify, I'm using Garage Band on the Mac, not the iOS version. I know how to select instruments in the library area with VoiceOver. It is selecting instruments via the instruments plugins with third party software instruments where I am having issues.

I'm currently using Garage Band until I can get Logic. My question is, how do you access instrument plugins in Garage Band using VoiceOver? Thank you.

Also I did some GarageBand Demos for cool blind tech sometime ago that may help.
