Anyone using Kontakt 8 on a Mac with VoiceOver?
I'm trying to use VOCR to access the File menu so I can run Batch Re-save on my libraries, but I'm stuck. Nothing happens when I activate the File menu button. VOCR never sees the drop-down menu—it only detects my libraries and presets.
Has anyone figured out a way to access the File menu with VoiceOver, or found another accessible method for running Batch Re-save? I'm running Kontakt in standalone.

I keep putting together wishlist #computerHardware builds

• Top tier 128GB DDR4, gen 3 #Ryzen

Decent. 3-5k USD for 1 gen newer. An improvement but, it's a waste. **I'd rather wait then spend 2x as much on a current gen #Threadripper #workstation**

• Mini-ITX which has always intrigued me,
• E-ATX Ryzen 9950X3D2

All the i/o is m.2. They're buried under mobo heatsinks. I need PCI-E cards for #audioProduction, #ai acceleration. I'm fine w/RAID SATA III + USB storage

Ideal:
Fat #GPDPocket 5 w/replacable RAM & battery, MCIO, multi USB 4 & 3, BT6.2, WiFi 7, latest Ryzen ai 400-500, 512GB UFS4.1 for #Bazzite, [ #RetroGame OS], #UbuntuStudio, 100% sRGB, mech kb

Hey y’all. Question for all the sound designer folks out there… what tips, tricks, workflows, or plug-ins have made your life easier?

I’m getting back into sound design with a song I’m working on and honestly, I forgot how much fun this stuff is. Been experimenting with movement, space, textures, transitions, automation, all of it.

I’ve heard of plug-ins that can make sounds feel super immersive and almost “3D” around your head. I know Logic Pro has built-in spatial audio tools and binaural stuff. Curious what y’all are using these days, especially for:
• Easy automation workflows
• Creative movement/panning
• Ambient textures
• Sound transitions
• Accessible workflows if any blind producers are on here

I’m doing this project in REAPER right now and just wanna learn from everybody’s setups and experiences.

After 14 years I installed Ubuntu on a PC again. Chose because I want to play music and use real-time guitar effects.
So far: kernel panics, broken updates, and hours wasted configuring my M-Audio sound card.
I was almost starting to regret it... 🫩

I the loving memory of Sonoj Convention. It did not materialize this year. Enjoy my last year's presentation:
https://media.ccc.de/v/sonoj2024-2403-bespoke-synth-live-music
In the above prebestation I demo and teach the basics of Bespoke Synth - a libre music playground / modular "DAW"(ish) / live music performance powerhouse / generative music composition tool, and digital sound tinkering kit.
