Hi, love the plugin. I’ve noticed you can only have one of the mapped out chords played at a time. Also would it be possible to have more then 8 chords mapped to the keyboard, like double it to 16? It seems like that would be a nice feature.  
Thanks!

Chris

Welcome @christougher  
We had to make the playback monophonic (one chord at at time) to allow expressions to work correctly. It is a little limiting when you are looking at unorthodox harmonisation but for that I set u p a group in my DAW triggering two scaler bound and just swap the chords within scaler.  
Have you had a good play with Pad view? That mitigates the limitation of 8 chords per pattern.
