Developers of music recording / production software and products are the worse you can get regarding accessibility. I’m sorry, but all the workarounds and such are a big barrier even for one’s creativity, at least when stuff is some way accessible. The norm is it isn’t. #a11y.

Weird thing is that there are lots of successful / known blind musicians, it’s kinda annoying this sort of products fall in the bad / nonexistent accessibility category.
It seems like software centered primarily around one sense shouldn't make another sense mandatory in order to use it. Seems like a missed opportunity when many blind people have better than average hearing. (I assume that claim isn't just an urban myth...)

I think that is in part true, since blind people really need to train and use their hearing effectively. And Music comes naturally from that, at least for some.

Yes, it sounds logical... but also logical enough to be made up, as it's obviously not as straightforward as me asking you if your hearing is better than mine... I just realised after I typed it that I wasn't aware of any *actual* evidence.
