Since you say that Jaws is reporting 'mouse up and down', it might be the case that you have the Jaws cursor active instead of the PC cursor. Make sure that the PC cursor is active.


The keystrokes I mentioned before are the default shortcut assignments which you can look up in the manual. If you still cannot change track volume with alt shift and up or down arrows, try shift G when focused on a track. That should bring up a volume dialogue.

Hi Paul,

Thanks for that but when I tried it, jaws only reported mouse left or right
or up or down.  There was no audio change.  I was focused on the track and
tried selecting it as well but nothing affected it.

Cheers

Steve

Steve,

1.  Selecting parts of a track.  I found this problem too and discovered
that when I first move to a track, pressing the right arrow and then the
left arrow before playing or making a selection ensures that the part you
select will be the only area which is edited.

2.  When focused on a track, press alt shift up and down arrows to adjust
the volume of that track in 1dB steps.  Alt shift left and right arrows
adjust track pan.

Regards,

Paul

        Hi David or anyone else who can help.  Your help was invaluable
before David, I've now gotten off the ground and able to multi track on
Audacity but I'm banging my head against the wall trying to figure out how
to select parts of a track to delete or apply some effects to.  I'm really
getting a bit frustrated now smiles.

        

        I've looked at the jaws guide and I seem to follow the instructions
but I'm deleting the whole content of the track and not just the bit I want.

        

        I also am trying to find out how to adjust the individual level of
the tracks.

        

        Any help would be gratefully received!  Smiles

        

        Steve
