Our sales folks would like me to "do a powerpoint" that shows how our pages
are 508 compliant, but I figured it would be much more effective to have
some recordings of how pages sound when they're compliant & when they're
not. Does anyone (a) have sound files like this they're willing to share
with me or (b) know how I can record sound from ConnectOutloud or another
screenreader?

Hi,
There is a program made by Applian, http://www.applian.com/pc/ReplayRadio/
which is designed to record internet content streamed from digital
sources. it also works very well for screen readers.
Good luck!

Whenever I've done this, I use 2 machines. If you have a wire with the
right size jack at both ends (eighth inch?) you can make the line out on the
machine with the screen reader go directly to the line in on the machine
without. Or just use the second machine's microphone if you can tolerate
the added noise picked up by the mic.

If you will have access to the internet when you are doing your
powerpoint, there is a Website that has an excellent bad example/good
example which provides a streaming audio file for each example. You can
also see on the screen how the two pages look pretty much the same. In
addition the good example provides some insight into how to create
effective alt tags which help someone understand what's coming next.
