Hi you guys.
So I'm having a problem with muting. I'm trying to mute/cut off mid playing the A6 pad exactly when it crosses the 5th bar. Then I want to be able to play it again almost right after the cross.
First of all I never actually used mute function before, this is like the first time I want to try it out because I usually just set Program Play Mode to mono and there has never been any issue until now. I want to repeat it twice, close upon the crossing. But no matter what I do, it continues to play the rest of the sample after the 5th bar.
Personally I think it's just stupid how it don't work imo, it should be really simple to just cut off the sample mid playing when I want and after the 5th bar, be able to use the pad again. I can't understand why this should be so difficult. This is why I'm reaching out to you guys, I need some help figuring out what I'm suppose to do.
The only solution I can think of, is to go back and chop it up to make it fit, but that's just beyond ridiculous imo. It should be able to be a easier solution.... Right???
Here is a drawing of the grid view, of how I would like it to work if that helps.

- I've tried Track Mute, but I don't want to mute the track, only the pad after it cross the 5th bar.
- I've tried Track Mute Group to a dud/no sample pad, but with no success, it just continues playing after
the 5th bar like I didn't even activate it.
- I've tried Pad Mute but I need to manually press the A6 for it to work like I want, and that's not helping at
all if I want to record it, because I need to be in the screen to be able to mute it like I want. And then,
when I exit the screen, it's back to normal, playing after the crossing of the 5th bar.
- I've tried Pad Mute Groups, but I have the same problem as the Track Mute Group, it just continues playing after the 5th bar cross, like it not even working.
- I've tried to google search for an hour, no luck. I also read the user manual for the MPC 5000, which got me to try all the above, nothing helps...
