Pad Muting & Track Muting
Pad Mute Mode and Track Mute Mode let you silence different pads and tracks to see what the sequence sounds
like without those samples or parts.
To enter Pad Mute Mode, press Shift+Track Mute/Pad
Mute.
1. Press Play to play the sequence.
2. Tap the Program field at the top of the touchscreen,
and then use the data dial or –/+ buttons to select
your drum program. Alternatively, double-tap the
Program field, and then tap a program to select it.
3. Mute a pad by pressing it once or tapping it on the
touchscreen. The muted pad will be lit red. You can
mute multiple pads at the same time.
See Operation > Modes > Pad Mute Mode to learn more
about track mutes.
You can also mute entire tracks by using the similar Track Mute function.
To enter Track Mute Mode, press Track Mute.
1. Press Play to play the sequence.
2. Tap the Sequence field at the top of the touchscreen,
and then use the data dial or –/+ buttons to select the
desired sequence. Alternatively, double-tap the
Sequence field, and then tap a sequence to select it.
3. Each pad is assigned to a track. Mute a track by
pressing the corresponding pad or tapping it on the
touchscreen. The pad will be lit red. You can mute
multiple tracks at the same time.
Tip: To mute a track only at precise note intervals
(“quantizing” your mutes, essentially), tap Time Division to
set a musical timing value. Tap the desired musical value
(e.g., 1 Bar). Alternatively, use the data dial or –/+ buttons.
Tap Close to close the page. Now, when you press a pad in
Track Mute Mode, the mute will occur precisely at the
beginning of the following time division (in this example, one
bar). This lets you test musical combinations of patterns—
the preliminary stage to building a song structure.
