Hi
You could also use the voice over function in the effects menu. You do all that's been suggested so far, i.e. up to selecting the voice file and copying it to the clipboard (control C). In voice over set the first edit field to where you wish the file to start, probably leave the second edit field at 1 second although it can be adjusted for a slower or quicker change, press OK and you will find the music plays at normal level but when your speech begins, the background music reduces to let the speech come over clearly. When the speech finishes the music increases again. If you find the background music too loud or quiet, then you can adjust the amount it reduces in the 3rd and 4th edit fields in Voice Over.

Hi.  In that case, decide which file you want to change, your greeting or
the music.  You can increase or decrease the volume in either file.  When
you decide which file you want to change then open that file in Gold Wave
then press ALT+C then the letter U.  Depending on what versionof Gold Wave
you have this will take you to the Change Volume option.  Hit enter on
Change Volume and select the change you want to make to the file, then tab
to OK and then save your change.  Walter.

Thanks Walter.  What would I do about the volume as I don't want the music
to overshadow our voices?

Thanks.

Yes you can. 1. Record your verbal greeting. 2. Move it from your Olympus
to your PC (you don't have to do this so long as you keep your Olympus
connected to the PC throughout the process).  3. Launch Gold Wave and open
the music file you wish to use.  4.  Now with Gold Wave open the greeting
you recorded. 5. While in this file do a control+A to select all the file
then control+C to copy to the clipboard.  6. Press control+tab to take you
to the music file you already opened. 7. Press ALT and arrow right to edit
and then go down until you come to Mix and press enter.  8. You will now
land on the part where you decide at what point you want the mix to start.
It starts with hours then minutes then seconds and finally fractions of a
second. 9. Once you have decided where you want the mix to begin press the
tab key once and then the space bar to hear a preview.  10.  If you are
happy with the preview, tab to OK and press the space bar then save your
file and that's it done.  Walter.

Ok, I don't own a mixer at this time, but I'd like to record a greeting and then place some music under it. Can this be done with Goldwave? Last time
I did this we just recorded on the Olympus while standing near a speaker,
but it sounded like it.  <lol>

Thanks.
