Mystic Access
Mystic Access wishes to make the holidays brighter with gift ideas that educate, empower and take the intimidation factor out of learning assistive technology. Whether you're searching for a comprehensive audio tutorial, one-on-one training, or accessible electronics which can be enjoyed by sighted and blind loved ones alike, we have your gift-giving covered.
Our audio tutorials are professionally recorded, produced, and created from a blindness perspective. We offer tutorials on a variety of topics, including our eight-hour deep-dive into the second generation Victor Stream, which walks you through all functions and features, and includes a full tour of the HumanWare Companion software. Purchase as a download or on an SD card. We also offer high-quality tutorials on orientation software and VOIP services.
We're excited to share our line of accessible Bluetooth devices, including our Bluetooth speakers, all of which include voice prompts for easier navigation. We also offer a Bluetooth transmitter receiver, which allows streaming audio from a non-Bluetooth device to a Bluetooth speaker or headset, and streaming a Bluetooth-enabled device to a non-Bluetooth audio player. Each of our Bluetooth devices includes an extensive audio tutorial which covers orientation and functions. Audio samples are available for each product, so you can listen to demos prior to purchasing. Tutorials are also sold separately.
For a highly-personalized gift of love, you may wish to consider our personalized audio tutorial service, where we will custom-design something to meet your specific needs and desires. With the same exceptional quality as all our tutorials, this is a gift which can be enjoyed and appreciated for years to come.
If one-on-one training is on your gift list, we offer a variety of options to meet your needs. From DAISY players to IOS and android, to screen readers and beyond, we can remotely support your learning in a fun and relaxed atmosphere from the comfort of your own space. all training sessions come with MP3 recordings so that you can listen again anytime. For even greater support and empowerment, we offer personalized consulting and self-advocacy sessions.
