Question

Is there a Narration Hotkey or a way to get one?

I'm setting up a Loupedeck for Premiere Elements and want to be able to use the controller for starting to record audio in narration.  I can open narration, but am not finding a hot key to push the record button.  Surely they have that mapped somewhere???

AFAIK there is no option to make a kbsc for record or play for that matter.

Play/pause is space bar, most software that allows recording uses shift R or control R.  Sounds like there is no such option.  Maybe I can convince them to include one in an update since it would take much effort on their part.

Can you describe what a "loupedeck" is and how it connects to Premiere Elements?  There is a "voice over" system built in to Premiere Elements.  Does that not work for you?

Loupedeck is a console.  I'm making a profile for Elements that handles my main hot keys.  When I open narration, I'd like to be able use a hot key from the console to initiate the recording there.  It doesn't make sense to have to always mouse and key to hit record there when everything else has hot keys.  I'm hoping I just haven't found the right combination.
