Title: Playable pads in MUTE and SOLO mode
Post by: Grrrr on August 20, 2018, 03:44:28 pm
First of all: what a awesome machine at a good price point! Instabuy!

Here is something that I stumbled upon when I was performing with the Impact: You can't play snare fills, tom fills, variations etc while in mute-mode or solo-mode. This seems like a waste of creativity. If I mute the snare for example I would love to be able to throw in a few fills manually by hand.

Suggested solution: hold down MUTE or SOLO to select which pads that should be affected by MUTE and SOLO. And when mute/solo is not depressed one can play all the pads live in both mute- and solo mode.Holding down Mute/Sole to select select and deselect pads would not be a problem at all. That workflow would still be fast and versatile.

Looking forward to an update! Looking forward to have this machine become even more versatile.

EDIT: found the latch/toogle mode. I still suggest the above solution as a third option (call it "Hold"?). The latch-mode is too constricting since it won't memorize mute/solo groups and I find it a bit counter intuitive to. Turning on/of is not very fast. Why not simple hold down MUTE/SOLO to be able to select and deselect pads? Beautiful simplicity that can be remembered even at the most chaotic gig :) And turning on/off groups would be instant! Holding down mute/solo does nothing atm, so it should be easy to ad as an option. Please!

All the best!
