Hi, Michael!
Glad to know you're here! Thanks for your endorsement of my culinary tastes!
(smile!)
I have a question--well, more than one. First, I use Gold Wave at work for
sound editing. If anyone here uses it, I'd like to know if there is a way
for speech users to do a sort of scan edit of a file. In other words, my
sighted colleagues, with a click of a mouse, can scroll from line to line
and see if any of the lines of sound look "irregular." I'm wondering if
there is a way for us to do something like that. If not, editing hour-long
broadcasts will be a bit tedious, I'm thinking. (actually, this question is
probably better suited to the technology list. Oh well...sorry!
Thanks! I'm finding the discussion of cell phones interesting and
informative! And I want one of those speech-activated coffee makers! I'd
love to get it for my husband as a holiday gift! (Ooops, I just may have
spilled the coffee beans! He's new on this list as well!)
I think I'd better quit while I'm ahead!
Susan
