Hello, More gripes about the DM5, or in this case the Sonority software that comes with it. Basically I don't think I have ever had the misfortune to use a less intuitive piece of badly written software in my life. Why do the authors of any kind of software to do with audio think it has to break all the human interface standards that are out there? I cannot get my DM5 to connect to Windows 7. Sometimes when I plug in the USB it goes totally silent. I cannot find two of the options mentioned in the manual. Basically my choices for USB settings are 'PC connection', 'AC adaptor' or 'variable'. And at no time do I get the quoted 'Storage' or 'composite' options presented to me. So I cannot switch the thing into mass-storage device mode. Also, 'initialization' of the micro SD card never seems to complete. I have version 1.10 of the firmware, but of course without it being connected I can't even update that. This piece of kit is billed as being suitable for us blind folks but it's a pity they forgot the principles of accessibility when they wrote the rubbish software. Mike -- Michael A.
