Lack of screen reader Accessibility #94
Comments
Hey, thanks for reaching out! Concerning the inaccessibility for you of the sensitivity, split and min duration knobs, as well as other parameters, there's ongoing work on making those accessible to the DAW as regular parameters. This should make those available just like the recording button. Regarding the import of an audio file, or the export of the midi file, I'm not sure how I can do this so that it can work easily with your setup. Currently you can drag and drop for audio import and midi export. For audio import, there's also a file chooser that opens when the audio region is clicked. Do you know any import/export technique that I could implement that would make this work well with your setup ? I'm currently pretty busy with work so I don't have a lot of time to work on NeuralNote, so this may take a little while. But I'm willing to make NeuralNote as accessible as I can. |
Hey there, thank you so much for responding!It’s great to hear the those parameters are being worked on. For my purposes I really have only adjusted the note sensitivity to 0 which a sighted person with no DAW knowledge can easily see and do. The additional screen reader accessibility will be great for others I know in the Reaper group who would use this for more elaborate projects.My main concern for now is importing an audio file then exporting the MIDI. When I add NeuralNote initially, I hear about 5 buttons and only two are recognized and function when I select them, those being the record and mute/unmute audio buttons. I don’t see an audio region or a button to choose a file, but I can work around this by simply recording the audio from another track. As far as exporting or saving the MIDI, my suggestion is to have a text labeled save or export MIDI button that opens the file directory to allow me to save it as though I was saving a project or track normally in the DAW. That seems to already be the case for importing audio but for some reason NVDA doesn’t see it. If it would help, I can send a screen recording of exactly what NVDA is able to view.

Hi there, just wanted to elaborate further on this: Adding the parameters to the list of parameters accessible to the DAW will solve those issues, so thanks for that in advance. And regarding export: just a button that basically copies MIDI into the clipboard so that we can paste it into the DAW would be fine already I guess. Thanks alot! |
Alright I understand. I'll add that when I will finalize the parameter PR. |
Hello,
I was looking for a plugin that would be able to convert my acoustic recordings to MIDI without the extra trouble of having to replay it on a digital instrument just to get the MIDI file I need. So far Neuralnote works great, it’s incredibly accurate and fast once it’s picked up on the source file. There is a big issue though, I’m a blind user on windows with the NVDA screen reader and Reaper as my DAW. When I insert Neuralnote, only the record button is labeled and then the playback button after it has picked up on the audio I play from a different track. There seems to be no way for me to insert audio without recording playback which can be time consuming, and once that audio is recorded I don’t have access to the three knobs: “note sensability”, “split”, “min note duration”. I needed sighted help to adjust those and there doesn’t seem to be a way to save the MIDI or export it straight from the plugin window once I’m satisfied with it. I know that normally you can drag and drop items in and out of the FX window, but that is not possible for me with a screen reader and strangely the tracks seem to disappear once NeuralNote is added, although the latter may be a Reaper exclusive issue.
