Insanity is the right word... I really dislike this one. When I am jamming
with the MD with the mute function, and at the same time are tweaking
sounds it is way too easy to mess up.


So, what I do is this.

1. Start an MD pattern
2. Go into the mute screen
3. Set up a couple of tracks for mute/unmute by holding the FUNCTION 
button
4. While the pattern is playing and I am waiting for the right moment to 
release the FUNCTION button to let my mutes be effective, I want to tweak 
one of the sounds.
5. Turn the button for the parameter you would like to change

Result:
You change that parameter for all sounds in your kit. Not just the one 
that you expect to change. 

To get back the sounds you hade from the beginning you have to reload the 
kit, hopefully you had saved it before you started with the mute/unmute 
thing...



Or did I miss something in FUNCTION+parameter implementation? 
Function+press parameter button to reset all values for that parameter to 
what was saved in the kit?
