"Song Record Modes
• Realtime Record - Events are stored as they are played on the keypad,
controllers or from the MIDI input port as the single realtime track
plays. The original channel of each event is maintained when recorded.
• Step Edit - In this mode, you can single-step through the bar locations
and place Pattern Inserts wherever you want.
Songs store the following information in non-volatile Flash memory:
• Song Name & Number
• Realtime note & controller information
• Track Mutes (these can be recorded in real-time on the linear song track
and supersede the pattern track mutes)";
it says here you should be able to use track mutes in song mode in real time or in step time. is the problem that they cannot be on the same tick?

"Songs can link patterns together to form more complicated arrangements.
There is also an additional song track which can be used to record notes,
controllers, pattern mutes or any other MIDI data. Songs can be of any
length, unlike patterns which are limited to 32 bars."
so the song track is the extra track which can't take more than one event in a tick i guess?On Mon, Mar 21, 2011 at 12:33 PM, Atom Smasher <atom@...> wrote:

1) if the mutes don't work out as planned/desired, it's much easier to
unmute than it is to replace notes.
2) AFAICT, you can't "just" delete notes in song mode; that would have to
be edited in the pattern/loop.
3) it *might* be possible to insert CC7 events and use MIDI volume control
to "mute" tracks in song mode (i haven't tried this yet) but it would be a
PITA to unmute tracks when the volumes are not all set to 127."Never have the armies of the North brought peace,
