I upgraded from Sound Forge version 6 to version 9, so haven't actually used version 8. The accessibility of version 9 is about the same as for version 6 and probably for version 8, at least for the things I need to do. This includes cutting, copying, pasting, fading, normalising, equalising, pitch, time stretch, noise reduction and effects.
It depends on what you want to do, but for most simple editing tasks, I don't have any problems with version 9. I use JAWS and don't currently use any third party scripts. You will find that most of the commands for version 9 are the same as those for version 8. One thing you might wish to do with version 9 is to locate the channel meters option in the view menu and uncheck it. Having this option checked can cause problems for some screen readers.

I'm new to this list, and look forward to being part of this list. I'm totally blind, and am thinking of purchasing the full version of Sound Forge 9. I recently bought the NBP braille cheat sheet. It refers to commands for Version 8. Is version 9 still accessible? Thanks in advance for your help.--Matt Chao Jonathan Mosen List Founder Audio List Help, Guidelines, Archives and more... http://www.pc-audio.org To unsubscribe from this list, send a blank email to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- No virus found in this incoming message.
