Yes I did go to settings and I couldn't find audio-ducking but as you tell me it's in accessibility.

A good tip is the search tool for sure.

Thanks,

Tony

I like teachable moments. When you are looking for a setting, you can go to the settings app and in the top left, is a search field. In this case I typed:
Audio Ducking
And the result was, Accessibility → VoiceOver → Audio




Then, go to VoiceOver settings, Rotor, Rotor Items and select the ones for audio ducking and ducking amount.

Richard, It's when I'm trying to mute or close off a station, I can't hear with VO properly so looks lkike
The percentage of the Ducking Amount is a good suggestion in my case.
Where do we find audio-ducking?
Interesting that you can put it on the rotor.

It is called Audio Ducking.
There are now two parts to audio ducking.
1. Audio ducking on always, or while VO is speaking, or off.
2. The percentage of the Ducking Amount. 1% would be virtually no ducking of the media, 99% would be almost total ducking of the media sounds, music, book, etc. Those are items in the rotor that you can select so you can adjust them as needed.

Hi folk,

I wonder is there a command or whatever to reduce background music  or radio sound when trying to hear VO.

Something like as in NVDA
 where there is a keystroke for reducing background sound?

Thanks,

Tony
