FOH Mute widget?

What’s the best way to implement a Front of House Mute widget? The use case here is you want to test out or practice something quickly in between songs that would not play through the audio interface output channels but would still be audible through the headphone jack. (Note, I’m monitoring my own sound via that jack).

I’m using GP 4.7 and a MOTU M2 Audio Interface.

Route everything through the global rackspace, put a gain control on the outputs going to the audio interface and map a widget on the global rackspace to the MUTE parameter

I will try that. To confirm - I should still hear sound through the headphone jack?

No idea - depends on how your interface works - if your headphone output is not on separate channels, then obviously that won’t work. In other words, if your audio interface only has a single stereo output such that audio sent goes to both outputs as well as headphones, then there’s nothing GP can do about that.
