the C2 track mute button. Note that the status of the mute button over
which the cursor is located is also indicated in the upper right corner
of the display (in this example, “Mute = off” for the C2 track).
MUSICAL
NOTE
The mute buttons are a handy way to simply turn tracks that you don’t
want to hear off. When recording songs or patterns, they also make it
possible to mute a “busy” track that might make it difficult to hear an im-
portant accompaniment track.
Like the pan pots on a mixing console, the VOICE mode pan pots
can be used to position the sound of the corresponding track any-
where from left to right in the stereo sound field. Position the cursor
at the pan pot, then use the [−1/NO] and [+1/YES] keys to set the pan
position. The graphic pan pot will rotate to the corresponding posi-
tion. The pan positions also have numeric values (1 through 7) that
appear in the upper right corner of the display: “Left 7” is full left and
“Right 7” is full right. In the display to the left, TR3 is panned about
half way to the left (“Left 4”).
DETAIL
The Dr track doesn’t have a pan pot because the drum kit voices consist
of a number of instruments, each of which has a preset stereo position.
These have been set to produce an appropriate “stereo image” of the
drum kit.
