TIL how to turn off/mute notes with a shortcut

One of my most used shortcuts in Live is numpad 0 to turn off notes. I use it all the time to edit and create variants of melodies and drumparts.

In Bitwig I could never find it, and now I know that was because in BW it uses Toggle Active (and I was looking for ‘note’ shortcuts).

The shortcut is: Alt+A (Option + A on Mac)

I also learned that you can add another shortcut to it, like the numpad 0 that I’m used to using in Live.

How to add a custom shortcut for this:

Go to Settings in the menu and select shortcuts on the left. Then search for ‘active’, click the + next to ‘toggle active’ and you get a pop up to add a new shortcut.

Here I have already added the numpad 0:
