Hi Nicole, yes, I've briefly used this add-on. It's very good, covers a lot of functionality, and works well with both Jaws and NVDA,

Hi, just to add that the osara accessibility extension to reaper is available from this site: https://github.com/nvaccess/osara David.

And if you do a search on the Reaper Without Peepers mailing list you can find a lot of folks who can help you through the learning curve. -----Original Message----- From: Michael Malver [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Sunday, February 07, 2016 10:16 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: Any good audio editors that work with jaws? I found a reaper to be an extremely frustrating experience, but did not have scripts. Where can I find the most recent reaper scripts? On Feb 6, 2016, at 8:05 PM, Nicole Massey <[email protected]> wrote: Yes, there are several. Goldwave is a shareware program that can do editing for mono or stereo settings. The big dog in that arena is Sound Forge, and up to version 8 it's probably the most accessible audio editor you can find, no scripts needed. But it isn't shareware. (It's what I use for professional quality editing and mastering) Nothing else even comes close to the options you can do completely from the keyboard with this program, because it was developed by the guys who created the first multimedia code for Windows back in the Windows 3.1 days. For multitrack editors Bryan has already mentioned Audacity, which does a good job with accessibility out of the box. Reaper is also an option, with scripts for both Jaws and NVDA and a huge number of folks who support it. Audacity is just an audio editor, while Reaper is a full functioned DAW (Digital Audio Workstation) application. On the pay side Cakewalk's program Sonar used to be a good option, but scripts for it have stalled thanks to their recent releases changing so much, so it might be a contender again but right now I have a hard time recommending it, as the version with scripts is several revisions back. More will be developing on this front soon, as other DAW environments are getting some accessibility attention. -----Original Message----- From: Tom macha [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Saturday, February 06, 2016 5:19 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Any good audio editors that work with jaws? Hello everyone, my name is Tom. I recorded a training session at work yesterday. I am wanting to edit some of the background from it. Does anyone know of any good editors that work with jaws? Many thanks, Tom
