[Nfbmo] Audio editing software

[DanFlasar at aol.com]

Hi again,
    I did install Audacity but it turns out my Olympus  digital recorder 
saves files into Windows Media Player format - whichAudacity  doesn't handle.  
It suggests that I translate the file into a supported  format.  Any ideas 
on how to do this?
   I hope this isn't off topic much but we are talking about  acccessible 
audio editing programs to edit a file for the use of NFB  members.

Dan, I've  found that Audacity is a good, free sound editor, but I don't 
know 
how  well it works with screen readers. It's available at  
http://audacity.sourceforge.net. I advise you to get version 1.2.6; even  
though they say ver. 1.3.4 is the latest, it's still in  beta.

Subject: [Nfbmo] Audio of 03/13/12 Jay Nixon  Blind Pension Health Care 
Rally

Hi all,
For all  those who couldn't make it to the  rally - and for those who
did and  want to have an audio record, here's the  recording - unedited -
that  I made of the Gov. Nixon's short speech at the  rally.
I  don't have editing software (but if anyone has  some good  free
software I could use to do so, i'm interested) so the files   starts 
shortly 
after
an introduction for the Governor, then the speech  and  afterwards some
comments about the event and the presentation by  NFB notables  Debbie 
Wunder,
Brent and Carie Ford, Ruby Polk and  others whose voices I should  know but
don't.
The  audio is 8 minutes and 41 seconds  long.
Dan
