For example:
OPEN HI-HAT
(or triangle, etc)
CLOSED HI-HAT
(or triangle, etc)
OPEN AND CLOSED HI-HAT WITH MUTE GROUP OFF
Here, you can see that the open hi-hat continues to play even though the closed hi-hat is
triggered.
OPEN HI-HAT
(or triangle, etc)
CLOSED HI-HAT
(or triangle, etc)
OPEN AND CLOSED HI-HAT WITH MUTE GROUP ON
In this example, however, the open hi-hat is shut off by the closed hi-hat thereby creating a
more natural effect.
This function may also be used to emulate the characteristics of older drum machines. On
these early drum machines, whilst they offered maybe 8 voice polyphony, each individual drum
sound was sometimes monophonic. This only became apparent when you tried to perform a
snare roll or something similar. Instead of the snare’s natural decay being allowed to sound, the
next hit would cut the previous one dead resulting in a rather unnatural staccato effect. Of
course, at the time, this was undesirable but the dictates of musical fashion now say that this
effect is quite popular in some music styles!! By assigning your snare drum into a mute group,
you may re-create this effect. For example:
SNARE DRUM ROLL WITH MUTE GROUP OFF
In this example, each snare hit is allowed to decay naturally.
SNARE DRUM ROLL WITH MUTE GROUP ON
In this example, each hit is cut short by the next one.
