SOLO function
This is not a “page”, actually; you can press Soft Button 8 to solo a Mix Channel
when you’re on any of the pages of Mix mode. This “solos” the currently selected
Mix Channel (indicated by the green blinking LED over the SELECT button) so you
can concentrate on one layer of a Mix without hearing the others.
