There are two mute modes global and pattern mutes. The purple/magenta color means the mutes are in pattern mode
Mutes only affect the sequencer, meaning you can still play the track chromatically but notes on the sequencer don’t trigger. Unmute the track and you will be able to hear what you record to the sequencer.
I don’t see what’s funny about that. It’s the right link and the right search term. 10 seconds later you would have known everything about pattern mutes.
My post was jesting myself for not making that connection on the color description on my own.
That being said, the word magenta in my language and vocabulary is a color term, I literally don’t think I have ever used in conversation until this thread. Literally.
Once again, laughing in a good nature way at myself in my commentary. Don’t take it personally.
