Mute all pad notes in drum sequencer - rather than mute the pad

Post by baseinstinct » Sat Apr 16, 2022 11:49 pm

Launchpad95 has this unique feature which is inspired by hardware grooveboxes I think, where you can mute all the midi notes per pad rather the pad's sample. This enables creating on the fly variations of a drum pattern, which sound great (sometimes it is better to miss a kick than to enable only its tail) and can readily be duplicated.

Is there a trick that enables this on Push? You can mute note-by note, which obviously does not work with long patterns.

If I understand your question correclty: hold Select, hold a drum pad you want to mute, release Select, press Mute.

This will mute pads - not midi notes across the clip.

No. Why whould you think that way? Have you even tried what I suggested?
To mute a pad shortcut differs: one should hold the Mute button and then tap the pad. No holding Select required.

it really does the trick thanks a lot.

One strange side effect, the track mute status gets changed each time. Still worth it while doing composition but when jamming, kind of strange. Can anyone replicate this in 11.0.11 and push 2?

That's just muting the track for me, not the notes of that pad. Push 2 Ableton 11
