Hi Rob and list,
Thanks to everyone who offered me advice. I have since downloaded
GoldWave's latest version. I am also looking at their Multiquence
program. Is it accessible to WE users?

Good evening Johnny and List.
I commend you to try Goldwave as a sound recorder and editing
package. The program is downloadable as a demo from http://www.goldwave.com/
This will enable you to experiment pretty thoroughly with the
software before you make a decision as to whether to buy it. It will
give you about 3 thousand keystrokes before you are prompted to buy
the licensed copy or to uninstall the demo version.
When I purchased Goldwave several months ago I paid $49 US which I
regard as a very good value for its abundance of sound editing and
reprocessing features. As for the learning curve, I had no prior
experience in producing digital audio before acquiring and learning
Goldwave which is very speech friendly with JAWS. For even better
JAWS interface I also commend you to get and install the Goldwave
JAWS scripts developed by Jim Grimsby. They are free and easily
installed by simply copying the 18 files into the JAWS settings
folder. The scripts come in a zip file. The Lame MP3 encoder is also
available on the Goldwave web site and will be needed if you want to
record in or change your sampling rate to 44.1 KHz, the sampling
rate required to enable production of an audio CD if you wish to do this.
Lastly, I have experienced the Goldwave help file to be very easily
navigable and easy to use as a learning resource.
If you use other screen readers such as Window-Eyes or SAM or NVDA I
must defer to those experienced users.
Have fun with the brave world of audio production, whatever audio
package you decide to get.
Best regards
Rob Tabor

Hi,
I am getting ready to record my wife reading. I might even want to
put some music in the background.
What software is inexpensive and is relatively easy for a novice to
learn. The key words in the previous sentence are "easy" and
"inexpensive". <smile>
Thanks,
Johnny Chilelli
