Chord Mode - Suggestions

What’s the idea?

When in Chromatic Chord Mode, it should save the chord information per key.
1.1. Press C in the top left of the chord picker, and it's the first time, all C's become a C maj Triad (if that's what the picker is set to.
1.2. Press C in the top left, but at a different octave (ie, add drop 2) it saves it for that octave
1.3. Press D, set to minor, all Ds in that column are now D triads etc
1.4. Every time a chord is set, have the luminosity increased so we know that it is a 'saved' value etc

If you have these as saveable presets, we could build up very useful very playable chords. Huge win.

Where would it go?

Similar to SEQ GUI, the KEYS screen when on chords could have the first encorder clickable, that would allow an alternate menu for selecting chord presets

As a follow up/clarification: first time a column is pressed, all chords in that column follow the selected chord specifics. If you switch to a different octave, and change the code specifics, it'll save for just that chord.

Maybe copy paste between octaves would be useful too...

Hey @jeffmhopkins , thanks a lot for the suggestion! It lines up very closely with where we want to take the next steps of the chord type.

Reviewed together with @ScottMacey suggestion and added to the backlog 😊
