This is exactly what I do for cd. I much prefer the output of my cd player to the 950 dacs (my cd player costs almost as much as the 950)and I was frustrated at having to change to AUD to set bypass mode. I programmed a simple macro (I think it's only one step) and can switch to bypass mode while the cd is selected. Works great.
