[Rwp] Automating mutes?

There are several automation modes in the track menu.
under the
set track automation mode
Mine is bound to alt-shift-w
That might be in the gene luca keymap everybody is using, can't remember 
if I did that or he did that.

I have also made some custom actions to bind volume and pan for more 
convenient increments,
since the ones that work only move by 5 percent of a db,
so I bound 20 of them together ina custom action to move by one db up or 
down when I press the alt page up or down keys.

It's a bit tricky to make those actions,
since it doesn't show up in the second list, you have to double click or 
perform the default action with NVDA on the action you want in the first 
list by focusing on it and then using numpad insert and numpad enter.

That's the good thing, and also the bad thing about reaper,
there are so many actions you can bind and combine to roll your own the 
way you want, and you have to build your own house.
YOu can make almost anything happen, but you have to figurte out how to 
nail it together.

There is probably a track or item mute action in
that list you can bind to a hot key if you go searching.

Hit your f4 key, and have fun.
