I’d love the option to assign a key or key combo to ‘Mute All Tracks’.
Presently I can only ‘Unmute All Tracks’.
I’m working with Renoise in a live context, and it would add a lot.
would muting the master channel be a solution in the meantime?
Yup, that would work in the short term, but I can’t figure out how to do that.
There’s no mute button on the master channel in the mixer view, and I don’t see it listed in the Preferences pane for Keys.
Have I missed something?
My work around is to put an instance of Bidule on every track and assign key commands to mute the Bidule mixers, but I’d rather not have to do that.
Still, this method allows me to preserve the effects tales for each track.
Jonas forgot to add that you can add a gainer device to the master track and set the slider to -INF DB and then simply enable the device to mute the track or disable again to make it play.
In the mixer that would be as simple as hitting the enter key when the device has focus.
You would then not need bidule for that.
If you want to keep effect trails then you need to work with send-devices, but this makes the case a lot more complicated because you don’t want to mute the effects yet you want to mute the tracks,
With a little effort this kind of mute-tool can be easily created in Lua, but this does mean however that you have to put all track effects in the send-track instead (including the automation) and then use an algorithm that mutes all note-tracks next to the master channel.
This is an option, but I was thinking of midi-mapping the master volume fader. Simply press ctrl+m to open the midi mapping window and link the slider minimum and maximum value to a button.
+1 for this brilliant idea!
Only wish I’d be already Renoise-LUA-Script literate 
so I could script that. But let’s see if I can overcome my laziness today
Then try this one:
1719 com.renoise.Mute_note_tracks_V1.xrnx
You can assign shortcut key, or rightclick in pattern/mixer and you assign a midi-controller to it.
Search for “~Toggle note-track mute state” on all described areas.
Set the default mute mode in the plug/misc preferences to “Off” for effect trailing.
lol Thankyou thankyou thankyou vV.
Works perfectly!
I owe you a virtual coffee or something
