This question already has an answer here:

I want to add a key binding that allows me to use it even when the application is not in the foreground. Specifically how would I add play/skip/previous key bindings to Spotify?

I'm not looking for the media key bindings. They can stay as is. I would like to add custom ones with keys of my choosing.

This question has been asked before and already has an answer. If those answers do not fully address your question, please ask a new question.

  • It's not a duplicate. That's not even close to what I'm asking. – Phil Andrews Apr 20 '16 at 18:21
  • As written, it's too close to the duplicate. Your issue might not at all be duplicate - so an edit to this explaining specifically why this isn't a duplicate and linking to the post should be enough to review this and get it reopened. Perhaps you have a specific key combination you wish to bind? (or explicitly don't want to use the F7 through F9 alternate meanings?) – bmike♦ Apr 20 '16 at 19:19

This can be answered by this other question. Basically, you're going to want to create an Automator action and assign it a global shortcut using the Keyboard preferences panel.

Edit: @bmike , the dupe you referenced didn't answer his question. The one I linked to does.

  • Thanks jimmy0x52 - what's going to be best - picking the details from the answers you linked to or just closing this dupe of the other. – bmike♦ Apr 20 '16 at 19:59
  • @bmike The accepted answer in that other thread is very elaborate - I'd suggest just pointing this at that thread and closing this one as a dupe. – jimmy0x52 Apr 22 '16 at 18:47
  • Perfect. Thank you. That link is closer to a duplicate. – Phil Andrews Apr 23 '16 at 1:33
