[musictlk] Dancing Dots Products for Blind Musicians Featured on Tek Talk Monday, 4-28-08 [cross-posted]

Hello, Marion,

Thanks for your interest in CakeTalking for SONAR.  I hope you will be able
to participate in the upcoming Tek Talk session on Monday evening, April 28.
The presentation will also be archived so that people can download it
afterward.

At this point, we have made no commitments to exhibit at any of the summer
shows.  As one way of coping with higher travel costs, we are trying to make
better use of online communication such as this Tek Talk presentation. 

12 by 24 sounds like a nice big room.  Are you interested to record live
drums, etc?  Are you thinking of building a vocal booth?  Do you know about
the TranzPort wireless control surface from Frontier Designs?  Customers who
use the TranzPort can operate SONAR by remote control from inside their
vocal booth.  Some people use a pair of wireless headphones or just prop the
door of the sound-proof booth open to hear JAWS speaking as they operate the
TranzPort to control SONAR.  Check out Gordon Kent's audio presentation on
our page at:

Bill

Bill,
    Will Dancing Dots be at the NFB Convention in Dallas? I would love to
see a demonstration of CakeTalk, as I am planning on setting up a recording
studio in my office - a converted garage approximately 12 X 24.
