Great! That's a lot to study :)

Is there any way of doing this via MIDI?

I'm thinking about controlling comping chords with a foot MIDI pedal while
improvising and changing harmony on the fly. Would love to have configured
my footpedal to send root and mode or grade so I can i.e. do a II V I, or
II III modal and Gmorgan would fill the background instruments and chord
notes.
