Silence Audio hot key?

Post by BillFrezza » Tue Feb 10, 2015 8:07 pm

Sorry to bother you again but you were so helpful last time ...

How do I make a hot key for the "Silence Audio" function? I've gotten pretty good at optimizing all the CTRL key bindings that I use with my left hand (THANK YOU the -10db amplification function is a godsend) but I can't figure out how to get the Silence Audio function on a key as it is not an "Effect." Any ideas?

Best regards,

It has a keyboard shortcut by default: CTRL+L

There is a list of all standard keyboard shortcuts in the manual: http://manual.audacityteam.org/o/man/ke ... rence.html
