Mute/Solo track in Timeline Song editor

[Eurikon]

Hi Richie, can we please have mute/solo per track in the song editor window of Timeline?

Here's how I think this should work:

What happens to the outputs when a track is muted?:

• Melody: The Gate and Velocity outputs go to 0V. The V/Oct output stays unchanged as of the moment you mute it; it doesn't reset, else notes with a Release would audibly change pitch when you muted the track.
• Drums: All three outputs, Trigger, Accent, and Velocity, go to 0V.
• CV: Same as Melody... any reason for it to be different?

Which modules? Just Timeline; muting of individual drum channels in Drummer, for example, would be a similar but different feature.

At what level is the muting applied? At the module level, so if you mute Track 2 and then switch to a different Song, Track 2 is still muted. It's the instrument on the end of the track that gets muted, not the named Track within the Song you're playing.

How do the Mute / Solo buttons interact?

• A track is muted if (its Mute button is set OR (its Solo button is unset AND any other track is Solo'd)).
• You can have both Mute and Solo set for a track; it is muted and other non-Solo tracks are muted.

Hi Richie,

I agree on all points.

I wonder though how a signal mute will be achieved on CV?

Edit: oh I see, it will be handled same as v/oct, therefor remain at the last value before muting. Yeah seems that it is the most sensible way?
