Pierre, the Gang modes are still pretty new and we may still have to make
adjustments.

You can always use it as before when no Gang modes existed.  But there is
already an easy enough solution if taking advantage of Gang modes.  To
ensure that the deactivated track does not play, just move the slider in
the Audio patchbay all the way to the left.

I'm not sure either, but GG thinks there may be another solution.
