"Audio Channels" window, and more "Close Gap" Shenanigans -- Premiere Pro Keyboard Shortcut Series

Two new shortcuts for today.

First, Shift+G opens the audio channels window. I use this pretty often when modifying stereo tracks into dual mono, especially when dealing with dialogue on camera audio.

Secondly, I recently discovered the “Close Gap” feature, but I’m realizing I want to use it so often that I don’t want to hunt it down in the Sequence menu. It doesn’t take THAT long, but it’s long enough that it adds up and I ain’t wasting my time with that anymore (it only took a day).

So I’ve assigned the keyboard shortcut Shift+Backspace. This intuitively makes sense to me, since we’re deleting/backspacing a bunch of gaps, and we’re shifting our focus from one gap to lots. Shift, backspace, get it? I’m trying to make it easy to remember. Don’t sue me.
