Custom chords common to whole ARP
I just wonder, the eight chords types available with the buttons, are common to all tracks, all Chord Chains, and all Patchs. That is very restrictive, if i want each patch or bank, have distinct chords progressions, in ARP or Chord modes.
I discover too, the 12 chord chains are common to all patchs.
That implies, the global ARP storage can only keep 8 chords types, and 12 chord chains.
ARP could be a powerful Chord machine, and more versatile in ARP mode, just allowing to customize the 8 chords type among the 42 available in appendix II, in Play mode, in Chain edit ...
The minimum could be to have distinct 8 chord type set by patch, or/and, by chord chain.
Having 12 chord chains distinct for each patch could be great.
Enough memory for that ?
A future import/export via the Web (using Usb Serial) could allow to free the ARP, just keeping less banks to allow more memory ?
Anyway, i just get my ARP V8, and enjoy very much, ergonomy is perfect, i just "omplain" about the lack of chord type customization ...
Thank you very much, and congrats for this marvelous hardware.
