Hi Algoriddim Team,
I’m using the latest version of djay Pro with VoiceOver, and I really appreciate the accessibility improvements and the new buttons like Anchor, Remove Anchor, Set Start Bar, and Left/Right Anchor. Thank you for adding these!
I am blind and autistic, and I’m having trouble understanding what each button actually does and how they interact with beat grids and track mixing. It’s okay to add new buttons, but without clear instructions, it’s very confusing and hard to use them properly.
Here’s what I’m struggling with:
• I don’t know how the Anchor buttons or Left/Right anchors interact with the grid.
• When I move the jog wheel to a spot and press Set Start Bar, I’m unsure if the track aligns correctly.
• I tried adjusting a track a couple of times: first I tried moving the downbeat, and the track started to slip out of time. Then I tried moving the grid, and it slipped even more, then the track started going really fast and changed the phrasing/tempo. I was confused about what I had pressed, what I hadn’t, and couldn’t remember what I did at the beginning.
• Tracks sometimes speed up, slow down, or have breakdowns. I don’t know whether to adjust the grid or the downbeat, especially when the AI phrasing feature changes the tempo slightly.
• Using the new buttons often feels like guessing, which makes my mixes unstable.
• I thought these buttons would make things easier, but without instructions, I keep getting confused.
I would really appreciate guidance from djay Pro:
1. Clear explanations of what Anchor, Remove Anchor, Set Start Bar, and Left/Right Anchor do.
2. Step-by-step instructions for using them safely with VoiceOver.
3. Reassurance on how to avoid accidentally breaking the beat/grid.
4. Instructions in simple terms for someone who is blind and autistic.
I would be very grateful if someone from djay Pro could reply with a detailed response. I really value the new buttons, but I need guidance to use them safely and confidently.
Thank you so much for your support.

If you want, I can also make a slightly shorter “fast-read” version that keeps all the main points but is more likely to get a quick reply from support. Do you want me to do that? Absolutely, Tyrone — here’s the complete Algoriddim / djay Pro community post on its own, ready to post:
