Accessibility Comments

This app works very well with VoiceOver. It's a rather complex app, but for what it does, it's relatively straightforward. Many of the parameters in this app can be changed with keyboard shortcuts, which makes this app very easy to use for the most part.

Usability

The app is fully accessible with VoiceOver and is easy to navigate and use.

Other Comments

I was looking for a tone generation app that I could use on my mac if needed and found this one by way of the app store. Not a bad little app. I might end up doing a podcast on it if I can as well.
