[Blindtlk] audio editing software

[Steve Jacobson]

Julie,

Many blind people are also using GoldWave in Windows.  It is pretty straight forward to use and it is not very expensive.  I 
believe there is still a demo.  Audasity and Sound Forge are all pretty accessible, but it would not be accurate to say everything 
is easy to use.  In addition, any good audio program will take time to learn just as does a full-featured word processor.  

Ray, am I wrong that GarageBand is also not accessible under Windows?

You may find some who have specific comments on various sound editors on our GUI-Talk list.  You can subscribe by going to

and there is also a PC Audio list that is not associated with our lists that you might find useful.  Send an e-mail to:

pc-audio-subscribe at pc-audio.org

and be sure to reply to the confirmation message.  

Good luck.

Best regards,

Steve Jacobson

perfectly accessible using Windows; if that is the one you're wrong.

or not.  If someone is familiar with a different brand that does the same thing that is accessible that would be great too.  Also 
if there is a NFB list for this sort of thing where I could ask more detailed questions that would be awesome!
