Mute Groups (Choke)

mute group - makes sounds cut each other off when triggered

why use this:

  • realistic hi-hats (closed hat cuts off open hat)
  • only one of several sounds plays at a time
  • simulates how real instruments work

setup a mute group:

  1. [shift] + [sound] → navigate to GRP page with [-/+]
  2. pads blink if they have sounds assigned
  3. press pads to add them to the mute group
  4. now those sounds choke each other

classic example - open/closed hi-hat:

  1. put open hat and closed hat in the same mute group
  2. when you trigger closed hat, it cuts off open hat
  3. sounds like a real hi-hat!

limitations:

  • only ONE mute group per group (A, B, C, or D)
  • all selected pads share that one choke group

to remove from mute group: same GRP page, tap the pad again to deselect
