You can also mute an entire pad bank. This can be done whether or not you are in Pad Mute 
Mode. 

Important:

 The mute states of your pad banks will be saved with the Sequence. 

 

To mute one or more pad banks: 

1.

 

Press and hold the 

Pad Bank

 button. 

You will see in the display that each column of pads corresponds to a pad bank (the first 
column controls Pad Bank A, the second column controls Pad Bank B, etc.). If the top 
two pads of a column are lit, the pad bank is active (un-muted). If they are off, the pad 
bank is muted. 

2.

 

You can mute or un-mute a pad bank by pressing either of the top two pads of its 
column: 

Pressing the first (top) pad 

(Toggle)

 will toggle the mute, "latching" it so it stays muted or 

unmuted, without having to hold the pad down. 

Pressing and holding the second pad 

(Momentary)

 will mute or un-mute the pad bank as 

long as your hold the pad down. When you release the pad, the pad bank will return to its 
previous state. 

3.

 

When you are done, release the 

Pad Bank

 button.
