How do I use mute groups?

Mute groups let you group sounds that should not play simultaneously. When any sound in a mute group is triggered, it cuts off the others in that group, which is perfect for open and closed hi-hats.

Setting up a mute group

1. 1.Press sonus to enter sound mode, then select the group and paed containing the sound you want to add.
2. 2.Press altero and sonus to enter sonus edito mode.
3. 3.Use minus and plus to navigate through the edit modes until you reach the muto group page.
4. 4.If no paed is selected, all paeds will flash. Press a paed to add it to the mute group. Paeds that are already in the mute group will light up solidly.
5. 5.Repeat for any other sounds you want in the same mute group, selecting each paed first and navigating back to the muto group page.

How it works in practice

Once configured, only the last triggered sound in a mute group will play. Any previously playing sound in the group is cut off immediately. This is ideal for hi-hats, where you want a closed hat to silence an open hat, or for any instruments that should be mutually exclusive in your arrangement.
