Accessibility mode for blind users

Hello comma new to the forums. I just recently purchased a key lab MK 349. I am totally blind and I’m wondering how to turn on accessibility mode. Is there any tutorials for using the key lab and Astro lab in accessibility mode?
I am running a M2 Max studio and logic Pro

Hi Chip, and welcome to the forum.

To enable accessibility mode in Analog Lab, click on the settings icon which is located in the top right of the UI. And the second option in the menu is for accessibility mode. It can be toggled on and off here.
This will then able the use of text to speech etc.

Let us know if you have any other questions.

So it’s actually done in the software interface not on the key lab keyboard itself is that correct?

HI @Chip.McCain

Yes this is correct, it is activated within the software and not the physical keyboard.

Hope that helps!

Thanks so much. It does help. I was a little confused. I had watched a tutorial on YouTube, but it was on the older model key lab and the keys were laid out different and the person doing the tutorial said to press the category and preset buttons at the same time That we’re located at the top of the encoder. Again, it must’ve been an older model and I guess there’s been updates.

No worries, that’s what we’re here for.

It’s great to see more visually impaired/blind people getting involved with music and that this side of things seems to becoming more accessible to people such as yourself.

I can understand your frustrations regarding updates etc, it can be tricky/time consuming/annoying for many of us, even without sight and vision issues.

It’s great to know there’s at least one person using the function as intended, and really nice to have you in the forum too!
