Ok I have this idea (it’s not mine but it doesn’t matter)

Muting by range.

To mute/unmute step 1 2 3 4 press step 1 and 4 and then press mute

To mute/unmute steps other than 1 2 3 4 press step 4 and 1 and then press mute or press step 5 and 16 then press mute.

For any single step mute press the step and then mute (as per current implementation).

The question is whether the functionality should mute or toggle mutes (probably it should mute).

It’s not "modulatable" but it makes it pretty fast to mute a range of steps.

Hi, I´m back! :-)

Nobody commented on the above idea, but I think it sounds great. I am not sure that it should matter if you press (example) 1 before 4 or 4 before 1. Perhaps both should toggle the skip of 1 to 4 when followed by MUT.
Then if you have 1 to 8 playing and 9 to 16 skipped you could hold 1 and 16 and hit MUT. This would inverse the state and now you have 9 to 16 playing. Nice.
