And regarding what Mario said. Sounds interesting, but is that true? That is the way it worked here. It didn't matter what chord I put in the chord window as the micro-chords always played correctly. I did try this with a few styles and I always got the same results. Note that I used MIDI and not RTs. You might want to experiment with it to see if it works the same way for you. Mario did you try that with instruments excluded from the micro chords? For me that is when the chord in the chord sheet makes a difference. Mike

Mike That is a good thought and no I did not try that. If time permits later today I give that try.

Here are a couple of tests that I ran.
With MIDI only styles:
Test 1 - 1st measure = C, 2nd = C - micro chords E7-A7-E7-B7, 3rd = Em a-all chord played correctly b-excluding tracks does not work.
Test 2- 1st measure = C, 2nd = E - micro chords E7-A7-E7-B7, 3rd = Em a-all chord played correctly b-excluding tracks does not work.
Test 3- 1st measure = E, 2nd = E - micro chords E7-A7-E7-B7, 3rd = Em a-all chord played correctly b-excluding tracks does not work.
With RealTracks only styles:
Repeat test 1 a-all chord played correctly b-excluding tracks does not work
Repeat test 2 a-all chord played correctly b-excluding tracks does not work.
Repeat test 3 a-all chord played correctly b-excluding tracks does not work.
Note that all of the RealTracks "a-all chord played correctly" results depended entirely on the RT style. Some completely ignored the micro-chord setting. Maybe I didn't select RTs that can be used in micro-chords? I did use the latest RT and MIDI styles, i.e. those from 2021.
Maybe micro-chords are not working properly here. Thus far I have taken all micro-chords into my DAW and worked with the raw data, as that is my usual BiaB to DAW workflow.
Maybe someone can also run some tests?

Hello sixchannel,
Have you tried selecting Force Enabled in your MicroChords window?

Hello sixchannel,

Hi Jerry Yes, I have. Does absolutely nothing - in this instance anyway. To be honest I have no idea what the FUNCTION of it is. What Purpose does it serve - in non-technical speak please? To me its as simple as - microchords (in my simple scenario) work as intended UNTIL there are microchords in the bar following a HOLD CHORD. Then they don't. Best Ian
