Robert, I agree. One can use shift-g and shift-p to get finer increments, but
that does not allow listening while adjusting.

Hi folks,
How are your opinions on the increase/decrease values of gain and pan
(Shift+Alt+Arrows)
Gain: 1 dB per move
Pan: 10 % per move
Honestly, I find those very coarse and would tend to redo them for 0.1 dB and 1
%.
How are your feelings about that?
If you wanna know how much a dB can mean:
- Create a tone
- duplicate it (Control+D)
- invert one of them (Effects -> invert)
- nudge one track up or down (Alt+Shift+Up/Down) during playback.
You can also set the gain to 0.1 dB (Shift+G) to have a feeling for that as
well.
Please tell me your preferred resolutions, likewise for the sliders in the two
dialogs if you were so kind.
Regards
Robert

Hey David: It is great to see you here as well. Even with normalizing,
I would like to be able to do some fine tuning on levels after the
fact. I could
select an entire track and change the volume on it, but this would be
very time consuming to do.

Hey! Nice to see ya!
Honestly, amplifying each track (or portions of tracks) with
"amplify" in the effects menu is what I do. Usually, though, I don't
have to do much mixing after normalizing because I make sure the
recording sounds good as I'm recording each track. I've got a mixer
that I run everything through before it goes to Audacity. All tracks are on
the ame baseline.
I thought I heard somewhere that a BCF 2000 can be used with Audacity
but I haven't tried it yet...
Some of the more power users will hopefully provide us with tips and
tricks as to how they efficiently mix with Audacity.
Are you using JAWS or NVDA? Just curious because there is a JAWS
scriptset that might help. Also, what version of Audacity are you running?
Don't be such a stranger, old friend!

Subject: [audacity4blind] Mixing Recorded Tracks
Hello: This is my first post to this list. I am just getting into
Audacity recording and have figured out how to do multi-track recording.
What I can't figure out is how to mix the tracks I have recorded.
Surely there is an easier way besides raising and lowering volume of
tracks in the effects menu, at least I hope there is. I have searched
help to no avail, so please don't tell me to RTFM without telling me what to
read.
Thank you for answering newby questions.
