Hi Dan, Thanks a lot for your reply. As I said, I can turn the volume to the maximum and it doesn't fix the problem. My wife even tried to turn it up with the mouse, but that doesn't change things either.

As far as I've been able to work out, this problem only occurs with new scores, in which Sibelius sometimes automatically sets the master volume to a very low value (somewhere around -60dB). If you open the mixer and keep tabbing until you hear "master volume", you should be able to press Ctrl+Up until the master volume is high enough. As you've probably noticed, There's a delay before JAWS speaks the volume. This is because JAWS is dragging the slider across and it has to wait for it to settle before speaking the new volume. I should also point out that the volume which JAWS speaks is only a best guess. This is because the volume slider is not a simple linear slider and so I've had to code JAWS to do some estimations. Hope this helps, Dan Rugman visit the new on-line resource for visually impaired musicians and home of Sibelius Access. www.musicaccess.co.uk -----Original Message----- From: sib-access-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:sib-access-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Claudio Sacco Sent: 03 February 2009 06:54 To: sib-access@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [sib-access] Re: Sibelius to soft and Jaws to loud Dear Jean-Philippe Yes, I turned the levels to the maximum, but in sound essential they do not effect enough. See also my reply to George.

And do you use the same sound card for Jaws voice and your music?

Turning on the volume in the mixer to the maximum doesn't solve the problem. Sibelius remains to soft; and when I turn on the master volume of my PC, so that I can hear Sibelius better, Jaws of course starts shouting at me. Using default as output device is slightly better. But I like these sounds essential, so I don't want to miss them. Can the volume be turned on in the contact player or do I miss some information about volume?
