Can you mute an entire track in FCPX?

In the old Final Cut, you could have a number of audio clips on a given audio track and turn all those clips off in one move, by muting the track. In FCPX, the clips kind of float here and there as you edit, so is it no longer possible to mute all of them in one go rather than going through each single clip and doing it over and over?

Glad to be of help, David!


Just to reiterate the solution for this:

Go to the Roles Tab in the timeline index and uncheck Audio (or Dialogue in this case).

You can assign any Role name to any clip or text etc and then it will appear in the Timeline Index box (bottom left of the Project Library). This means you can turn any item (or set of items) on and off!
