Muting Sounds and Groups
Mute works in the same way as the Solo mode: hold MUTE to mute Sounds by pressing their
respective pads, and Groups by pressing the Group buttons. You can also lock the Mute func-
tion by pressing MUTE and Button 1 at the same time and unlock it by pressing MUTE again.
Like in the Solo mode, there are two more functions in the Mute mode: ALL ON (press But-
ton 3) to turn all Sounds on and NONE (press Button 4) to turn all Sounds of the Group in
focus off.
Since pressing SOLO mutes all sounds except one, the MUTE button can be used to “re-
lease” Sounds that have been muted. You can use this technique to create a breakdown: So-
lo a given sound such as a kick drum, then build the track up again by bringing the muted
sounds back in one at a time with the MUTE button.
