As I do not do a lot of work in BiaB I didn't know that so thanx for this info.

Although the topic is rest vs. muting may I add why not try volume automation? That is all I use in my DAW and I can raise or lower, sometimes to zero volume, anyplace in a track. I can also slowly increase or decrease volume. Are those options available in BiaB?

Whenever I get something stuck in the back of my throat, I dislodge it by drinking a beer.
It's called the Heineken Maneuver.
