Options for desabling ArchiCAD Sounds

I would like to control the ArchiCAD sounds and disableing them at my will, they are extreamly annoying and distracting
A good friend of mine have once told me that I´m so brute that I´m capable of creating a GDL script capable of creating GDLs.

You already can do that in the settings?!

Work Environment > User Preference Schemes > More Options.

But beware, it is an all on / all off option.
You can not pick and choose which sounds you may want to keep on or customise them (which might be fun!).

@Barry Kelly

Do you have one for disabling error sounds ?

I just deleted the files and restarted Archicad.
Still had the sounds.
I didn't restart my machine - not sure if that would make a difference.

Wonder where it was getting the sounds from...?

You can't disable individual sounds.
Just turn them all on or off.

We were exploring this option just a little while ago in this post, but I don't think it can be done.

I'd vote yes for an option to customize sounds with on/off options.
