chord mode - save setting with song

I sometimes have chord mode on, sometimes off. However certain projects (prepared for live performance) should always have chord mode on. Seems like it’s a global setting, and thud not saved together with the song. Any way to get around this? Can it be recorded in an FX column for instance?

Well, you could let a tool scan a song upon a specific device that has a specific name and make it turn on chord mode.
renoise.song().transport.chord_mode_enabled, _observable

Here is one of my projects that uses this technique:

For your purpose, the setup will be much simpler because you don’t need to tweak and check parameters, but simply scan a device name.
