I really don't know that much about object navigation.
its something I am trying to learn about… I think I am missing out on a few tricks that could help me later.

NVDA is very nice, and I find my self using it more so that JAWS these days. I am still learning it though.
For what it is, it is pretty kick ass for a free screen reader

I was able to assign a kick drum to pad one. I'm going to try to build an entire kit now. I don't know how we will be able to access layers, or key ranges. Maybe the developer of the auto hot key scripts will add some more keystrokes to a couple more of the buttons and we will be good to go. This is very promising, and I am super excited that this is finally working out.
