channel(s) that you want to mute. (You may
select more than one channel.)
For example if you press [TRACK SEL] keys 1 and 3,

nels 1 and 3 will be muted. At this time, [TRACK
SEL] keys 1 and 3 will go dark. The graphic in the
display will also indicate this.

If you want to monitor the playback of just a
specific track, access the MONITOR screen
SOLO page by either repeatedly pressing the
[MONITOR] key or by holding down the
[MONITOR] key and using the CURSOR [ ]/
[] keys.
The SOLO page of the MONITOR screen lets you
mute all other channels while listening to only a
specific channel. (This is called the “solo” function.)
When you sol a channel in this page, the signals of
the remaining channels will be muted, and will no
longer be sent to the stereo bus or AUX buses.

nel that you want to solo.
For example if you press [TRACK SEL] key 3, the

[TRACK SEL] key 3 will light orange, and the other
[TRACK SEL] keys and [INPUT SEL] keys will go
dark.

Note
While playing the demo song, the level or the on/off sta-
tus of a channel you adjusted manually may return to its
previous setting. This is because the Scene function has
switched the state of the mixer settings, and is not a mal-
function (
p. 142). You can use the Recall Safe function
to temporarily prevent scenes from being recalled. (
