copy the sequence.

leave the original sequence the same.

goto the second sequence, skip to bar 3 and press record on the hihat track. this will ERASE the hihats for however many bars you let it go for. its that simple. how would you do it?

if you want to do it in realtime, use the track mute screen. you just wont be able to record what you do into a sequence. But you can record into your multitrack/software what you do with the mute screen. I do it all the time.

i would go to the track with the hi-hats on, hit erase and dial from bar 3 to end of bar 4, then do it

i didn't know pressing record would delete

you didnt? if you press record and hit NOTHING, what will happen? try it and see. if you have something on the track and press record it will get rid of what is on the track cuz. i do it all the time.

but wether you do it my way or your way the result is the same so who cares?

and why is this even a big deal? lol the question has been answered numerous times.

I read the thread sparq, just adding something different dat hasnt been mentioned in case someone was searching

try tracking the midi data to another sequencer, as you play the sequence back and do your mutes from the mpc. you can then save this file and import it back into the mpc as one large sequence, up to 99 bars in lenght. i know its a fuk around, but the only way i can see it happening.
