[musictlk] musictlk Digest, Vol 42, Issue 9

[DOUGLAS FOR]

I found an online metronome advertised as being for folks with visual 
impairments. You enter the digits for the exact tempo you want (between 30 
and 340 beats per minute). It appears to be accessible, but I'm not certain. 
I don't have JAWS on my personal computer.

Good luck!
