Mute and solo tracks in Logic Pro for iPad
You can silence, or mute, a track so that you don’t hear it when you play the project. Muting tracks is useful when you want to hear how the project sounds without the track or compare alternate versions of a track.
When you mute a track using the Mute button, the channel strip to which the track is assigned is muted; all tracks in the project that use the same channel strip are also silenced. Plug-ins on the muted channel strip are still processed, however, so the system responds very quickly when tracks are muted or unmuted.
You can solo a track, silencing all tracks that are not soloed. Soloing tracks is useful when you want to work on a track without hearing the other tracks in the project.
The first time any track in a project is soloed, the Clear/Recall Solo button appears in the area above the track headers. You can quickly unsolo or resolo all soloed tracks using this button.
Mute a track
In Logic Pro, show the track controls.
Tap the Mute button in the track header.
Tap the Mute button again to unmute the track.
Solo a track
In Logic Pro, show the track controls.
Tap the Solo button in the track header.
Tap the Solo button again to unsolo the track.
Quickly mute or solo multiple tracks
In Logic Pro, touch and hold a Mute button or Solo button , then drag vertically over other tracks you want to mute or solo.
Unsolo or resolo all soloed tracks
When a project contains one or more soloed tracks, tapping the Clear/Recall button unsolos all soloed tracks.
In Logic Pro, tap the Clear/Recall Solo button in the area above the track headers.
To resolo all previously soloed tracks, click the Clear/Recall Solo button again.
If no tracks in the project are currently soloed, tapping the Clear/Recall Solo button solos all tracks, and tapping it again unsolos all tracks.
