I can't figure out how to play powerchords manually. Is this even possible right now?
If not, would you create a powerchord preset without the strum sequencer?

What do you mean you can't figure out how to play them manually? It's just a I, V, I, so for example C, G, C (an octave higher).

I don't remember if it's new to the lead patches that Greg just released a few days ago or not, but the c and c# just below the lowest notes in the lead patch will repeat whatever notes your holding down. I found it very useful for repeating chords.

I made up a "power chord" patch, which is essentially palm mutes at low velocities (0-100), half palm mutes at higher velocities (100-127), and the sustain pedal activates "chord mode".

That'll be easy to do with the new strum palette system in the upcoming update! Smile

How to play them manually as in bypassing the strum sequencer.

Would you share that patch by pm?
