Default S6 start/stop click sound

I recently started working on s6 and when I press space for playback on my keyboard s6 as you would expect triggers play button on the console making a little click / tick sound as well. Bit annoying when editing and pressing space all the time for start / stop command. Is there a way to deselect that sound on s6 controllers please ?

I do not hear any sound except the physical sound of my spacebar. Are you saying an S6 module emits a click sound into the air, or perhaps do you hear a click through your speakers?

Pretty sure its s6 emitting the sound into the air after pressing spacebar. Studio where I work has recently acquired two s6 controllers, both units emit the clicking / ticking sound after play and stop command. It's quite annoying, but it's interesting that your unit doesn't emit that sound

Might be a GPO relay?

edit: Yeah, that's got to be it. Go to Settings/GPIO, uncheck "Transport Enabled (Stop,Play,Record). That will stop the relay clicks. Obviously, if the studio is using those outputs to control other equipment it could cause a problem.

Thanks guys, deslecting 'transport enabled(stop,play,record)' option in GPIO settings did the job
