On the pattern page I’ve been saving sections to what patterns I need in each, but also muting some entire tracks too, but I’m not sure if it’s me or I’m doing some thing incorrect, but if I for example mute track 1 and save as ‘Section A’ and unmute track 1 and save as ‘Section B’ then if I go back to ‘Section A’ the track will be unmuted as if this a global change, is that right? If so what is the workaround? What I started doing is instead of muting an entire track is to choose an unused pattern slot instead.
I haven’t used it yet, I was still using the “old method” (see below), should be updated in manual though. Perhaps you can just deselect the pattern or something?
On the topic of empty patterns I learned something useful recently, you can quickly make an empty pattern by setting the pattern length and next action. Previously I was adding a muted note or similar.
Not sure if this is in the manual, if it is I missed it.
