    @TomMcLean I think OP wants to generate the press not catch it. Commented Jun 15, 2021 at 10:34
  • This seems to be an XY problem. If you control how this recording script is started (from a main.py), then you can possibly also kill it from this main.py. It doesn't have to be a Ctrl+C. Commented Jun 15, 2021 at 12:03

If you are in the same python script you can just call sys.exit. Otherwise, you can kill the process by its pid or name. see Kill process by name?
