The part mute settings specified within each pattern will be
applied as the position within the song changes during play-
back. However if you change the position but the pattern is
still the same, the part mute settings will be maintained.
The part mute status will not change even if the position
moves to a different pattern. However at the beginning of
the song the part mute status will be as specified by the pat-
tern selected for position 1.
