Hiya Dennis,
There are some chord trigger modes that mix your triggering with the output, but in general i THINK that your left hand ONLY picks a chord root and quality. The chord is first transposed from C to that root, but from what I've seen in some experiments, ALL of the style notes ALWAYS go out.
If there's an exact match between the chordal (1,3,5,7) in the style's channel's chord quality with the chord quality you PLAY, then the style notes go out with just the root transpose plus 3,5,7 adjustments due to chord type.
BUT if the style channel was recorded with CMaj7 C,E,G,B and you play a Cmajor, then since the 7 is extra, it gets mapped to a 1. That B gets remapped to the next C up.
(Then voice leading logic is thrown in on top).
Let's take a look at a relatively tricky example:
style channel is based on Cmin7(11) and has these notes:
3Eb 3F 3Bb(3,4,7)
now you play Cmaj, Cmin, Cadd9.
Major has the 3, but it's adjusted to a M3 instead of existing m3 so 3Eb=>3e
No 4 or 7 in Cmaj, so the 3f=>3g(4=>5) and the 3Bb=>4c(7=>1)
When Cminor is played, the same thing happens, but the 3 is left minor.
Now you play a Cadd9.
3Eb adjusts to major again.
3F is moved to a 5 again (3F=>3G)
=BUT= the 3Bb is moved to a 4D. (So 7=>2)
How did it decide to skip over the 4c which is IN the played chord???
Maybe that has to do with the voice leading logic?
Hmmmmmm............
