Chord Variation Table. Each Style Element contains a Chord Variation Table,

Key/Chord
After deciding what CV to play, the arranger triggers the right sequence
for each track. Since each sequence is written in a particular key (for ex-
ample, CMajor, GMajor or Emin), the arranger transposes it according to the
scanned chord. Notes in the sequence are carefully transposed, to make
them work fine with all the recognized chords.
Tracks and Patterns/Sequences
Each Chord Variation is made of eight different tracks. DRUM and PERC are
used for drum and percussion sequences, BASS for bass and ACC1-5 are for
instrumental accompaniment sequences (string, guitar, piano or other ac-
companiment instruments).
