This is how all hardware sequencers work, right? you press play on the 
master, and the slaves play along in time!

I guess you might be able to setup some master clock disable in your 
sequencer, but I'm not sure how necessary it is. I normally just mute stuff 
at the desk when I don't want to hear it.

In MIDI triggering mode it needs MIDI notes to make a noise anyway. Whether 
the sequencer runs with the master or not is irrelevant...
