Hi Toby, To clarify something that Dammie mentioned, using the down and up arrows during playback select a range in the timeline but do not select any audio unless there's an insertion cursor in the track. Also, a selection will only be made if the insertion is not following playback. There are a number of things that need to be configured correctly in order for Pro Tools to behave as expected for a VoiceOver user. There's a lot of documentation to read. Follow the setup instructions for the OS in the Intro to Pro Tools PDF found in your Documents/Pro tools/Documentation folder.
Despite Dammie's encouragement to download Flo Tools right away, you should get to know Pro Tools by itself first. That way, when you're ready, Flo Tools will turbo charge your productivity and you'll be able to navigate the interface much faster. also, I think Dammie mentioned using VO down and up arrows to move the track selection up or down. It's actually Control up/down arrows. I might have misread his response but just wanted to clarify that in case.
