Disable midi playback without muting midi parts, but play the instrument track from keyboard

I want to play an instrument track and temporarily not hear the playback of the midi in the track. Muting the midi parts would complicate things. The muted data is complex because some of the data is already muted. Is there a way to disable midi playback without muting midi parts, .but still be able to play the instrument track from keyboard.

I would go for turning this track to an empty (even new) track version.

If you need this on a regular basis you can easily assign this task to a macro and a key command. Muting the container doesn´t change the muting within the container, so you´re safe. But maybe there is an easier solution?

Like that :smiley:

Track Version. That’s the perfect solution. Regards
