I wanted to share a short update regarding the issue I’ve been encountering. I have created a fresh Cubase project specifically for testing purposes and have been able to consistently reproduce the problem.

Here are the detailed steps:

1. Create a new VST Instrument Track with Scaler 3.
2. Select a **G Major** scale.
3. Drag the chords **Bmin** , **D** , and **G** to the main track.
4. Switch to the **Circle of Fifths** page.
5. Select **Bmin** on the main track and insert a **Bmin7** from the chord suggestions.
6. Select **D** on the main track and insert a **Dmaj9** from the chord suggestions.
7. Delete the original **Bmin** and **D** chords from the main track and move the **G** chord.
8. Close Scaler 3, save the Cubase project, and quit Cubase.
9. Reopen Cubase, load the project, and open Scaler 3.
10. Navigate back to the **Circle of Fifths** page.
11. Click on **Bmin7** or **Dmaj9** in the main track.

**Observed Behavior:**

- Clicking on **Bmin7** or **Dmaj9** does _not_ update the Circle of Fifths page.
- No chord suggestions are provided, and it is not possible to change inversions or adjust semitones for these chords.
- Interestingly, the **G** chord works correctly and updates the Circle of Fifths page as expected.

I have attached two videos demonstrating the issue:

- **Video 1** captures steps 1–8.
- **Video 2** captures steps 9–11.
