Lets say that I wanted to use a style like one of the rock or country styles that has a guitar strums or guitar parts as part of the style.

I will be working in a Duo situation with a Guitar Player, can the instruments like the guitars that make up a style be muted leaving you with say bass, drums and other instruments and then saved as a user style ?

Working solo you might need more elaborate backing but if you were working with other instruments and wanted to use the Pax4 as your backing band it would be very desirable to be able to mute sections and save them as your own styles. As I dont as yet have a Pa4x this would be a important feature for the way I work live.

You can mute or adjust the volume of each ACC track individually - with the physical sliders too

What I am getting at is being able to have Drums, Bass and being able to silence Guitar strums etc while leaving maybe a organ or whatever sounding ?

Yes you can

Also if one where to use the Pax4 for general band duties can you forget the auto arranger functions and then have the facility to layer, split one or more sounds across the keyboard

Yes you can

Thanks

Green for Loud and Clear !

Thanks
