Wow, you guys are too techy for me. Thanks for your input, but I need something very simple so I can teach my 40 volunteers (some that have little or no computer experience)how to use the tool. We are only using the mute feature for post record edits. Things like mouth clicks, page turns, breath noise... it is just tedious to have to go to the drop down menu to access the mute feature.

This program might well not work with such sound cards. The M-Audio Delta cards are one example.
