Thank you again,

It took me a while to get it set up but everything works pretty much out of the box. Pretty amazing how the pitch and speed manipulations aide with the digestibility of the audio.

>>

>> The names of the products I looked for are:

>> JAWS<https://help-nv.qsrinternational.com/12/win/v12.1.98-d3ea61/Content/abo

>> Veterans Affairs found it was ?not conformant? with Section

>> 508<https://www.oit.va.gov/Services/TRM/ToolPage.aspx?tid=6085> in June

>> 2020.

>> * ?MAXQDA? ?VPAT? -didn?t find any relevant results on Google and I

>> didn?t find any accessibility info on its site

>> * "Dedoose" "vpat" -didn?t find any relevant results on Google and I

>> didn?t find any accessibility info on its site

>> * "Provalis research text analytics software" "vpat" -didn?t find any

>>

>>

>>

>> Names of some others I didn?t look up are

>>

>> * Raven?s Eye

>> * Quirkos

>>

>>
