Original Message 1/8 10-Mar-01 @ 03:51 PM - Muting tracks on the fly - how
open your song arrange/track etc and go to EDIT/PREFERENCES - KEY COMMANDS... this defaults to show the: 'Transport & Locators' tab sub-menu - that's the one you want... you'll see there you have key commands for start, stop record locators etc...
scroll down and see there is .... mute-record/mute & recall/mute 1-9 & programme-locators/recall-locators 1-9
ok... choose: RECORD-MUTE_1 - and set it to say KEY1 (above Q) -
then assign the RECALL-MUTE_1 to CTRL+key1 - ok... now hit APPLY and ok and close that panel...
if you now go to the arrange page - and HOLD DOWN 'KEY1' (record-mute_1) - then whilst holding down the key, mute the tracks you want muted - audio or midi tracks.... whilst the key is held down, any mutes you switch ON will be assigned to the associated RECALL_1 key (in this case CTRL+1) ...
ok... release key1 and you have set your mutes for key1.... NOW, click CTRL+1.. hey presto GROUP MUTING!!
turning the mutes off?... well you can either assign a key to un-mute all tracks, like say re-enter the KEY COMMANDS menu - then choose RECORD_MUTE-9 - assign it to key9, then assign RECALL_MUTE-9 to CTRL+9... now go to the arrange page, un-mute EVERYTHING and hit key9 which'll grab a SNAPSHOT for that key of the arrange page with NO mutes active...
now this has assigned 'ALL TRACKS UN-MUTED' as the recall for CTRL+9... so hitting CTRL+9 will at anytime UN-mute everything -
so of couirse you can use keys between your first setup-mute (key1, CTRL+1), and full UN-mute (key9, CTRL+9) - the remaining 8 available slots in-between to programme any alternative mutings.... so you can choose while playback to go from any of the mute arrangement switches to full UN-MUTE, or switch from one mute setup to the next by just selecting the next desired mute setup...
sorted!! - if you use the key commands tick boxes for keyboard remote, you can also assign keyboard keys to do this wit the REMOTE ACTIVE, and REMOTE KEY - (just make sure the key/s you choose if any are WAY up the keyboard range where you DON'T play any notes !!!.. or you might be into a blistering keyboard solo live and suddenly mute some tracks

Wanted to up the anti a little on this topic.
I wanted to know if there is a way to have these programmed on the fly mutes recorded in the mixer's arrangement?

Also a side but more important topic-
Whenever i use the mute's on audio tracks i get a big CLICK in the audio when muting and unmuting. I am trying to carve out the song from loops that i mute and unmute and this is ruining the final mix. Have you figured a way around this, the clicks at all?

Anyway i am still trying to figure out how the best way for me to put all my samples and what not together. Hoping you might want to tell me what your methods for arrangeing/Muting in the studio.
do you just Mute through an outboard mixer?
