MINIMISING THE MUTE WINDOW

While the MUTE window is active it occupies a large portion of the LCD screen. This can
be disturbing if you want to work with mutes at the same time as you want to access the
sound parameters.

To avoid this problem, the MUTE window transforms to a small centered window when a
DATA ENTRY
knob is accessed while in MUTE mode. To return to the big MUTE window,
press the [ENTER/YES] button.

In songs, mutes can be programmed specifically per row. For more information,
see section “SONG MUTE” on page 55.

A muted track remains muted, even when the pattern is changed or if SONG mode
is entered or exited.

Drums already trigged and still making sounds will continue to sound when
muted, but further trigs will be masked. This allows the drums to fade out in a nat-
ural way.

Mute settings are remembered between reboots and Snapshots when being
changed (not loaded).

ACCENT TRACK

The Accent feature is used for quickly changing the accentuation for either a pattern as a
whole or for individual tracks. Accent raises the volume at selected positions within a pat-
tern or a track.

1.

Hold down the [FUNCTION] key while pressing the [B/F] key. This brings forth the
ACCENT window.

2.

The accent value is set in steps up to 15, using [UP] and [DOWN] or the SOUND
SELECTION
wheel.
