Song Part Mute Setting
The Mute function lets you turn on/off the rhythm (drum & percussion sound) part, bass part and other accompaniment part
individually, or turn selected tracks on/off. For example, you could mute the rhythm part to play rhythms yourself using the
pads, or you could play along with just the bass part sounding, or you could jam with an actual bass player with all other
accompaniment parts enabled.
The Mute status can be confirmed by checking the tabs corresponding to the [SF1] – [SF3] buttons. A part name indication
of “DRUM,” “BASS,” and “OTHER” in black characters means that the corresponding part is muted while a part name indi-
cation in white characters means that the corresponding part is turned on. Pressing these buttons toggles part playback on
and off (Mute).

NOTE
• The Preset Songs consist of mul-
tiple parts (MIDI channels) and
have been recorded to a single
track (Track 1). For details about
the Song data structure (relation-
ship between parts and tracks),
see page 67.
• When no data is recorded to Track
1 or 2, the corresponding tab
(“TR1” or “TR2”) is not shown in
the display. When a Preset Song
is selected, “TR2” is not shown in
the display because no data is
recorded to Track 2 for all the Pre-
set Songs.
• Tracks TR1 and TR2 of an exter-
nal Song (EXT: 01 – 99) saved to
a USB storage device cannot be
muted.
