a way to mute midi rather than audio in drum pads

Post by baseinstinct » Tue Dec 29, 2020 3:15 am

Is there a way to mute the drum rack pads' midi, i.e. let the already playing ones continue with their release with push or any other midi controller?

Muting a pad's audio makes sense in a limited number of situations, whereas midi muting would open performance possibilities - that is how this works in microtonic, although not in drumcomputer, unfortunately.

with the velocity midi effect, put the out high to 0 (the out low have to be on 0 too)

or with a midi fx rack, with the mute chain button, you can also make mute note in this way
and also the with the chain selector

Cool, thanks. Not as easy to integrate with push, though. Still. good to know.
