Muting a Sound
► To mute a Sound, click the number on the left side of the Sound slot in the Pattern Edi-
tor.
Muting a Sound.
► To unmute the Sound, click the number again.
By default, the Mute on Sounds is an event mute: events for muted Sounds are not trig-
gered,  but  the  audio  coming  from  previous  events  might  still  be  audible  (reverb  tail,
etc.). You can also activate audio mute for Sounds to mute both events and audio — see
the beginning of this section for more information.
Muting a Group
► To mute a Group, click the Group index (letter + number) on the left side of the Group in
the Arranger:
Muting a Group.
► To unmute the Group, click the Group index again.
