5 - Mute

The MUTE key allows to disable/enable the playback of one or more parts of

the songs.

Melody Mute

The main function of MUTE consists in disabling/re-enabling the playback of

songs’ melodies.

The key operates as a switch:

- by pressing it once:

mute   the melody isn’t played back.

The backing tracks are played normally, lyrics

are displayed normally, including colouring

“in sync”, but the sound of the melody, i.e.

the vocal part of the song, isn’t reproduced.

This mode is particularly useful after becoming familiar

with the songs, when greater performing freedom is

wanted. In fact, without the sound of the melody, there’s

more opportunity for melodic variations, the use of

delay, anticipation and other expressive elements that

normally don’t coincide with the original melody line.

- pressing it a second time:

restores the melody

the melody is played back at normal volume.

After which the cycle’s repeated.
