News Wire:

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.

Walt Kramer, a certified access technology trainer and pioneer member of Tek 
Talk's planning team, will demonstrate the most efficient way to take 
fullest advantage of these tools.

Date: Monday, February 1, 2010

Time:  5:00 PM PST, 6:00 PM MDT, 7:00 PM CST, and 8:00 PM EST
