Alex and I kick back, talk about how he makes his awesome metal tracks in Reaper. Which freeware and notta so freeware VSTs he uses and how. Potentially there will be a follow-up to this on youtube where the actual step-by-step process will be illustrated. Until then, enjoy!

First and foremost Virtual box. On (yes you guessed it!) Mac!
Advantages:
• Completely inaccessible. Lots of reasons for it so not a problem at all.
• Using those “Caps Lock” or “insert” keys as your screen reader modifier keys might present a challenge too. Good! What does not kill you makes you stronger!
Disadvantages:
None! Its a Mac for crying out loud!
Virtual Box on Windows.
No advantages nor disadvantages of any sort. It just works. Especially with NVDASR.
VMware. Win & OSX (accessible on both).
Advantages:
• Consistently sluggish on both platforms! Since version 4. Must be a feature. We’re still learning to appreciate it.
Disadvantages:
• VMware on Windows doesn’t require messing with key bindings (so takes some excitement out).
For more details stop trying to make sense of these show notes and just listen to the podcast.
Sincerely,
~ Yours truly
