Mackie Display Reader Lite

The Mackie Display Reader offers a method to make the popular Mackie Control Universal control surfaces provide speech output when used in conjunction with any of the most popular screen readers (Jaws, Window-Eyes, System Access and NVDA). The Reader can be run in the background whilst a Digital Audio Workstation (DAW) application is run in the foreground - it provides additional information to assist the visually-impaired user operate the application. This initial release is offered for free and is optimised for use with Cakewalk Sonar.  It is particularly useful when handling plug-in effects and software synthesizers.

We have a new version of this application under development that will support multiple devices on both Windows and Mac and intend to make a public beta version available soon. For a little background information on this, please take a look at the thumbmail description on the Mackie Display Reader page on the RNIB site
