Making one track "cut/mute" another?

Hi there

is it possible to make it so a track in the Octrack mutes another track?

so for example I have an open hat sample on 1 track, and an closed hat sample on another track, I want the closed hat sample to mute the open hat one

Im sure this must be possible, but im jut not sure how!

many thanks

The MD has this ability, but I don’t think the OT does. You could use a trigless trig and P-lock the amp level to zero to cut it. Or even easier use one track for both sounds with sample locks. Samples automatically cut on one track.

Definitely better to just stick them on one track, especially if they’re as similar as an open and closed hi hat.

It takes some adjustment to get used to how flexible the OT tracks are.

ah yeah you can make it so you put more than one sample one one track cant you? I forgot about that
