The bad news is that Adobe has run out of keys to which to assign keyboard shortcuts for Premiere. The good news is that this hasn’t stopped Adobe from creating new shortcuts.

In the June, 2016, update to Adobe Premiere Pro CC, Adobe added a flock of new shortcuts that speed adding, modifying and removing audio and video keyframes in the Timeline; though none of them are assigned to keys, yet.
This means that we get to decide which keys we want to use and where we want to assign all these new shortcuts.
WHAT’S NEW
Open Premiere and go to Keyboard Shortcuts. (Mac: Adobe Premiere menu, Windows: Edit menu)
Search for “Keyframe”.
We now have the ability to add or remove audio and video keyframes, nudge keyframe values up or down, nudge keyframe positions left or right, and jump between keyframes; all under keyboard control.
To assign a shortcut to a key, double-click in the Shortcut column to the right of the shortcut you want to assign, then type the keys you want to use. In this example, I’m assigning “Control+K” to “Add or Remove Video Keyframe.”

I just realized that there are several keyboard shortcuts that I find myself using constantly that haven’t made my “Favorites” list. These are:
- Option + [ Plus ] / [ Minus ] — Enlarge or shrink audio channels vertically.
- Cmd + [ Plus ] / [ Minus ] — Enlarge or shrink video channels vertically.
- [ Plus ] / [ Minus ] — Zoom Timeline horizontally.
- — Shrink/expand the Timeline to fit in the Timeline panel.
