Answer 8

mute groups allow you to store different mute configurations. each project holds 10 mute groups. use the value keys 1–0 to select which mute group to be active. the active mute group is stored per pattern.

Question 9

Answer 9

by default, muting a track will stop any notes from being triggered. however, it is possible to mute only the audio signal sent to the master bus. the track will still output midi and audio signal to the effect and tape tracks.

to do this, while holding the mixer button, press the shift key. the shift key will light red. now when muting tracks they will turn red when muted. this will mute only the track audio but not the outgoing midi.

pro-tip: you can mix and match the two mute types, and store these settings across multiple mute groups.
