Muting Tracks and MOD Lanes
A special function of the LOOPY button enables it to mute and unmute individual tracks and MOD
Lanes. To do so:
1. Press and hold down the desired LOOPY button.
The Action Display at the bottom of the Metropolix screen will say “MUTE TRK/LANE” and the
three TRACK and eight STAGE/LANE buttons will light.
2. While still pressing the LOOPY button, press a TRACK button to mute that track’s playback.
For example, to mute TRK 2, press LOOPY + TRK 2 . To simultaneously mute both TRK 2 & all
MOD Lanes, press and hold LOOPY + TRK 2 + MOD .
Muted TRACK buttons are lit red (brightly if the track is the current track, and dimly if it’s not the
current track), while unmuted TRACK buttons are lit yellow . In addition, any muted tracks are
‘greyed out’ (crosshatched) on the Home screens. Track mutes always occur on the next pulse
(or immediately if the pulse happens at the same time). Different types of track data behave
differently when muted. Specifically:
● Gates, CV and MOD Lanes are set to 0V and are muted (ignored).
● A pitch slide on a muted track will finish to it's target voltage and remain there.
3. You can also mute individual MOD Lanes by pressing-and-holding the LOOPY button followed
by one of the eight LANE (Stage) buttons.
For example, to mute MOD Lane 3, press LOOPY + the LANE 3 (Stage 3) button.
A muted lane’s output voltage is set to 0V and any programmed voltage values are muted
(ignored). Muted MOD Lanes are
red ; unmuted MOD Lanes are yellow .
4. To unmute any tracks or MOD Lanes, repeat the operation. That is, press and hold the LOOPY
button while pressing whichever TRACK or MOD Lane button(s) you wish to unmute.
NOTE : Mute states are saved with presets .
