Can't find chord-mode button

Hi

Probably just me, but where’s the chord-mode switch at in renoise 3?

The documentation still deals with Renoise 2.8, until Renoise 3 goes gold.

To answer your question, the Chord mode is gone, replaced by the per-instrument “Mono” switch - quoting from the release notes:

The new Mono option replaces the global Chord Mode, and is defined per instrument. Otherwise, it’s essentially the same feature: it determines how the instrument will respond when you press multiple keys while recording. So, having Mono enabled for an instrument is not to be confused with how the mono feature might work on a soft-synth, you can still write chords into the pattern editor and all notes will play simultaneously. However, when playing and recording the instrument, the mono option is applied to the input.

I know, I was just trying to be more clear about exactly what button I couldn’t find

Ok, makes sense.

I just checked, and it seems is just a setting that affects pattern-editor behaviour during recording, right? So 1) I can flip the switch for the instrument when I need the other mode and 2) when playing back it doesn’t matter if mono is switched on or of, right?
