You can, of course, then get busy with your MIDI editor, but an easier way to create a performance based on your selection of chords is to engage one of the Bind MIDI buttons. These link any further input from your MIDI keyboard to the relevant section of the interface. Any chords within the various chord slots can then be triggered by a single white key starting from C2.
These chord triggers are velocity-sensitive, so you can conjure a decent amount of expression from them.
