set the volume of each track, and mute/unmute tracks.

board tracks) to Song Tracks 1-8 and Song Tracks 9-16 views.
The Normal view shows Keyboard tracks:
The Song Tracks 1-8 view shows individual Song tracks 1-8:

Virtual sliders (track volume)
Virtual sliders are a graphical display of each track's volume.
Touch the track's area to select a track, and use the TEMPO/
VALUE dial to change the value (or touch and drag it in the dis-
play).
The volume of Keyboard tracks may be saved to a Performance,
while the Song track volume is not memorized.
Track status icons
Play/mute status of the current track. Select the track, then press
this area to change the track status. The status of Keyboard
tracks may be saved to a Performance or STS.
See "Keyboard track status" on page 150 for more information.
Play status. The track can be heard.
Mute status. The track cannot be heard.
Note: You can save this setting into the Global-Song Play Setup (by
choosing the "Write Global-Song Play Setup" command from the
page menu), to leave the track status unchanged when selecting a
different Standard MIDI File. This way, you can leave, for example,
the bass track in mute, and let your bassist play it live for the whole
show.
However, the above is not true when reading a Standard MIDI File
created with a Pa-Series instrument. These files do include special
commands to force the Play/Mute status of each track.
