I think I figured out the chord hold issue. You have click the "song regenerate and play" button. I was just clicking "play from bar" after I set the "Hold Chord" setting. I guess what I was doing does not actually do a regenerate even though it appears as though it is doing it.

Yes, I confirmed this with a 2nd song. In fact I have it set up with a 2 bar ending which starts 2 bars early and also a tag ending that does the same thing but of course it shows the tags. The interesting part is the ending chord is different and the tag ending one sounds terrible where as the 2 bar generated ending sounds good. I think that has nothing to do with the technique. It is probably just by chance. I tried changing the marker to a different colour to fix the bad sound but no luck.

However I have discovered after doing a few of these that the "hold chord" is probably influenced by the style chosen. They seem to vary as to what instrument holds the chord depending on the style.

Okay so now it is resolved :-)
