that you want to silence.

Note that if you save a song with a Phrase track muted in the
Standard MIDI File format, that Phrase tracks data will not be
saved. If you save a song that has a muted Phrase track in the
MRC Pro song format, the mute status of the track will also be
saved.
If you set the tempo track (Tempo) Status to MUTE, the
tempo track will be muted. If tempo changes have been recorded
in a song, but you want to play the song at a fixed tempo, you
can mute the tempo track.

Name)
You can assign a song name to a song, or edit the song name. This
song name is independent of the file name assigned when saving a
song to disk. Although you are not required to assign a song name,
you can assign one using up to 15 characters, and you may find it a
convenient way to store a title or memo that will help you organize
your songs.

copyright data. It is not possible to assign or modify the song
name for such songs.

song name you want to assign (p. 136).
2. Access the Song Setup window.
