I also use the latest version of total recorder with Win 7. To avoid Jaws
from speaking use a shortcut key to silence speech before you begin your
recording session. You probably already know the necessary keystrokes to
start and stop the recording so you don't have to hear JAWS talking. HTH.

Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Total recorder and jaws
I am not familiar with windows 7 myself but from what I understand,
Total Recorder uses different methods to intercede the audio under
windows xp and under win7.
Under win xp, I think jfw is excluded from recordings by default. I
do not know how that is on windows 7.
Somewhere in total Recorder's options - and i don't have memorized
where - you can exclude applications from being recorded with TR as
long as you are using tr's software driver for the recording. See if
jfw is set under the excluded applications on your win 7 machine and
also if TR uses its software driver for recording under win 7 and
make the appropriate changes. I think you need to use something
called the "kernel mode driver" (or similar wording) on the win 7 machine.
Finally, if you have a hardware synthesizer, use that when you play
around with those sound driver settings. And make sure you know what
you are doing when you experiment if you only have one soundcard and
are using software speech. There is a chance that jaws might go
silent on you if you set TR up wrongly or the wrong driver is loaded
first at bootup. set jaws to use your computer's own soundcard under
the soundcard settings and configure total recorder to only have the
total recorder active when the TR application is open.
And finally, if your computer blows up or gets the hiccups while you
trying out the different settings, you cannot hold this body or list
responsible for any mishaps!
Good luck!

I have total recorder installed on my desktop and mylap top. I only have

recordings, but on my lap top, if jaws speaks, while I am recording, it
records it. Any suggestions as to how I can stop this. I am running
windows XP professional and jaws 11 on my desktop. I am running windows 7
and jaws 11 on my lap top.
