...until you explicitly say "Back to normal" somewhere else.

If it would show up for every bar it would be very tedious to unmute the muted section.


In subsequent bars (after the change was made) you'd only be seeing the "status" of the instrument (which is why I said it should probably say "muted" instead of "mute"). As I envision it, you could change the instrument state on any subsequent bar and then that state would be in effect going forward.

Example:
Change guitar to "mute" in bar 2. Bars 3 onward would show guitar as "muted".
Change guitar in bar 4 to any other state and that state would be in effect going forward and show up in subsequent bars.

And JohnJohnJohn's suggestion of showing at what bar the change took place would be good if you wanted to go back to that bar to make a change.
