Default Re: Quick keys or Shortcut for Mute?

Quickeys could do this for you no problemo. Here's how I would program it:

step1:
Keystroke Macro
SHIFT-M

step2:
pause
0.2 seconds

step3:
CMD-SPACEBAR

Also prior to the Step1 you could throw in a SHIFT-R to have the shortcut put the track you are selected on into record ready. If you do though, I would also suggest a .1 second pause before the SHIFT-M.

You can choose which keystroke triggers your shortcut in Quickeys, and even restrict it to only working in ProTools. That way you can still use your number pad in other parts of the OS normally. If you do end choosing 3 over on the 10key, it will override the PT function of that key, so you know.

If you want I can write that shortcut out for ya, and send it. Startly, the guys who make Quickeys offer a 30day demo of the app if you want to check it out.
