The traditional "click" when changing the volume, the sound of the trigger when taking a screenshot or emptying the trash during the same action. These are the sounds we are used to in OS X, but they are not always useful when our computer emits such signals. However, it is not a problem to turn them off.

Apple computers are used by many people for presentation purposes because of their ease of use and Keynote. However, there is nothing worse than when a presenter connects to a speaker system in the hall, the volume of which is set to maximum, and then wants to mute the sound on their computer. A deafening "click" comes from the speakers and the eardrums crack.

Therefore, there is nothing easier than turning off these sound effects in the settings. However, it's not just a volume change, you can also turn off the sound signaling of taking a screenshot and emptying the trash.

In System Preferences, select Sound and under the tab Sound effects two checkboxes are hidden. If we want to deactivate the sound effect when changing the volume, we uncheck it Play response when volume changes, if we want to disable the sound effect when taking a screenshot and emptying the trash, we uncheck it Play UI effects.

Of course, some of these sound effects can also be prevented by simply turning down the sound to a minimum, but then of course you won't hear any sounds from your computer at all.
