Muting a specific track/Monitoring a specific
track (Mute/Solo functions)
The KROSS provides a Mute function that lets you silence
specified tracks between 1–16, and a Solo function that lets
you hear the specified track or channel by itself. These
functions can be used in various ways. For example you can
intentionally mute or solo specific tracks, or listen only to
the rhythm section of the previously-recorded tracks while
you record new tracks. Let’s try out the Mute and Solo
functions.
1. Press the SEQUENCER (start/stop) button.
2. Access the SEQ> MIX page. Press the PAGE+ or
PAGE+ button to select the page.
3. Use the cursor ▲ button to select Sound.
4. Use the cursor buttons ◄► to select the track that
you want to mute. Select track 1.
5. Press the ENTER button to switch between Play and
Mute.
The display will change from P (Play) to M (Mute), and
the playback of track 1 will no longer be heard. In this
way, the “mute” function allows you to silence a
specified track until the track is un-muted.
6. Press the cursor ► button to select track 2, and press
the ENTER button to switch it to Mute.
The playback of track 2 will also be muted. To cancel
muting, press the ENTER button again.
7. Turn on Solo for track 1.
Press the FUNCTION button, select Solo Setting from
the menu, and press the OK button. The Solo Setting
dialog box will appear.
Use the cursor button ▼ to select Solo, and use the cursor
button ◄ to select Track 01. When you press the ENTER
button to add a check mark, the screen will indicate (S);
now you’ll hear only the playback of track 1. In this way,
you can play only a specific track that you want to hear.
If both Mute and Solo are used, the Solo function will be
given priority.
Use the cursor button ► and the ENTER button to turn
Solo on for track 2. The indication will change, and
you’ll hear the playback of tracks 1 and 2. MIDI tracks 3–
16 will not be heard.
8. To turn off the Solo feature, press the ENTER button
once again. Turn off Solo for MIDI tracks 1 and 2.
The display will change, and the playback of tracks 1 and
2 will be muted. If the Solo function is turned off for all
tracks, playback will be according to the Sound settings.
The Solo is not stored when you save the song.
