Accessible World Tek Talk Presents Walt Kramer Hosted on Monday, February 01, 2010

Walt Kramer will show us how to make most efficient use of the Windows volume control during Tek Talk on Monday, February 1, 2010.
Through adjustments made in the Windows volume control, we can record our own voice as well as what we hear on our computers. The key to success is proper settings. Once such settings are in place, QuickMix can be combined with shortcuts and hotkeys to make it easy to move between one group of settings and another, depending on your project.
