Muting tracks with Repeater via fcb 1010

[Louie Angulo <laab2000us@yahoo.com>]

The one problem i still have with the repeater is
muting tracks.With my FCB 1010 i have no way of
knowing the state of the tracks since the fcb 1010
doesnīt have a momentary mode.So sometimes i record
something and i donīt hear the output until i start
tapping the buttons to see which one is muted or not.
This is of course live murder!
Any of you guys doing track muting via the fcb 1010
live? Can this be done manually?
Any tips?
