Mute
In audio, muting is a function that somehow prevents a device or audio channel from being able to be heard. The muting function has been standard on many mixing boards over the years as a handy way to eliminate a channel from a mix without having to pull the level down. This is beneficial because one can quickly return the channel to the mix without having to reset the level again. Muting causes similar results in MIDI sequencing and DAW systems - where individual tracks or MIDI channels can be silenced - though the means of achieving those results are dramatically different than an analog mixing board.

Our Customers Say...

“I can talk to my Sales Engineer about any piece of equipment, and he always steers me in the right direction. He truly knows what he's talking about, and he never tries to over-sell me on anything. If he worked in the Nashville area, I'd probably owe him about 20 dinners by now!”
