Unfortunately because you use jaws, the only way to turn down or up thescreenreader volumeis by adjusting the wave volume. Window-eyes on the other hand has provision for doing exactly what you would like. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Peter Bentley" <bentleypdlists@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

Thanks for that but I do have my WinAmp vol set independently of my screen reader and there is still often quite an uncomfortable imbalance between the two volumes. I know it is properly set because I can turn the Winamp vol between max an min without affecting the other volume.

Is there a way of turning the screenReader vol down without reducing the WimAmp vol. I use JAWS and XP Home but I'm assuming this is not screen reader specific.

Thanks for your help.

First method:
Arrow down to the output plug ins. Tab once to winamp wave out plug
in and press alt C for the configure button.
Tab and check the checkboxes for volume control enable and the
one that says volume control alt settings method.
Enter on okay and then enter on close.
Second Method (recommended for XP users)
Tab from the output plug ins and select the Nullsoft direct sound
plugin and tab to the close button.
You should now be able to use your up and down arrow keys in winamp
to change Winamp's volume without effecting the software speech.
In winamp 5, the plug ins's are still in the treeview but for some
reason the PC cursor won't arrow down to them past skins.
A shortcut you can use is while you are in the main winamp window,
press control K for the visualization plug ins.
You will land in the preferences treeview on visualization.
Arrow up and you will find output, then input, and the main
treebranch for plug ins.

Hello

Re following audio tutorials.

I have Winamp set so that its volume can be adjusted independent of the soundcard volume and the vol. of Winamp volume is set to max. However there is often still a big difference between the tutorial volume and the screenreader volume so that I have to keep turning the loudspeaker up and down. Is there any solution to this please?
