[NFBCS] Is Audacity Accessible with JAWS

[Humberto Avila]

Dear Nicole,



To answer your question, Yes, JAWS works very well with Audacity for Windows.  In fact, Audacity has a lot of really useful built-in shortcut keys that can be used for operating it. For example, to start a recording, you would hit just the letter R. to stop the recording, you’d press the space bar, and to pause the playback or recording, you’d hit letter P. quite simple.



The menus are very accessible, and when you explore them all of the hot keys are available there. Heck—you can even select audio with the arrow keys, and you can hit space to listen to the current selection of audio or the audio from cursor to end.



All of this with no scripts required.



Hope this helps a bit. If you have more questions, please ask.



Best,



Humberto

            I have a couple of different choices for a project, and Audacity is one of them. Is Audacity accessible with JAWS?





Thanks,



Nicole
