Mute/solo track

Open xhevahir opened this issue 5 years ago • 2 comments

It would be nice to be able to mute one track in order to hear either the melody or the harmony in isolation.

I wanted to keep the controls simple, so track specific settings haven't really been baked in.

Can you give a specific example/use case of when this would be helpful?

The difficulty I was having was mostly when the notes of the two tracks would overlap, making it hard to distinguish between them (especially since they're played with the same MIDI instrument, at, I think? the same volume). That, and I sometimes wanted to decide if and where I wanted to change the notes of one track and leave the other unchanged, and I figured silencing a track might help with that. Maybe a simple slider for mixing the two tracks? I don't know how the JavaScript MIDI stuff is implemented, though. Anyway, yeah, it's not worth cluttering the interface.
