My latest attempt at a MIDI piano accompaniment patch is attached.The middle subpatch called "plays_major_then_minor_chord_rhythm" is giving me a headache.

Does anyone know of a better way to change chords? Currently you have to stop playing and click on the bang for whatever major or minor chord you want. Slightly un-dynamic! I would perfer to have something that allows me to play a note on a lower octave that would then change the chord being played...without playing all the notes in the chord at exactly the same time...ie..it keeps the rhythm steady. Any ideas?

If I understand your patch correctly, you could replace the 2*3 number boxes in the middle of "plays_major_then_minor_chord_rhythm" with 2*3 [float 0] objects. Connect the metros and delays to the -left- inlet, and the [+ 0], [+ 3], [+ 7],... objects to the -right- inlet of the floats. This way a change of the base note only -sets- the chord floats, but does not output them directly. Only the metro's and the delay's bangs output the chords then.
