Track Mute - Akai MPC X User Manual

Track Mute

This is useful if you want to hear a sequence without a particular track (e.g., muting your keyboard track to focus on
the bass) or if you want to isolate specific sounds or combinations of sounds that are separated by track.
Tip: This function is similar to, but more convenient than, muting tracks one at a time in the Track View.
To mute tracks in this mode:
1. If the Track Mute tab in the lower-left corner is not already selected, tap it.
2. Select the desired pad bank. Use the Pad Bank buttons or tap a pad bank shown on the left side of the screen.
3. To mute or unmute a track, press the corresponding pad or tap it on the screen. Pads for muted tracks are lit
red. Pads for unmuted tracks are lit yellow. Pads for unused tracks do not show any information.
To assign tracks to track groups within this tab, turn each of the Q-Link knobs (when the Screen Control Q-Link
button is selected) to assign each of the pads to a track group. The number of each pad's track group is shown in its
upper-right corner.
