Mute might be the better term!

And sorry, no offense, but the CS always was a 'players' tool, the better your playing, the more useful. If your act is built around your voice, and extensive soloing is not a feature (or using other instruments, etc.) it has less impact on your arranger use.

Sorry, but without this feature, it's LESS playing (and more complaining) because my LH is constantly tied up doing the same boring thing each verse over and over again. Me, I've got a decent LH. I'd like to use it for something more interesting...

Mind you, Donny, as you refuse to use footpedals to help you out with arranger operation, I guess that LH gets a workout pushing buttons rather than chording too much. But put all that at your feet, and you quickly realize how underutilized your LH can get.

The CS is to players what SMF's are to the less skilled. An opportunity to use your FULL two hand technique to its fullest. And the audience sure likes to hear that (if you can!).
