Note 1:
YV Enhancer has Key/Scale and Chord tracks in the Song Manager. In version 1.0 it can serve to Chord audition, and maybe for Chorus tracks creation. In the next version Key/Scale and Chord tracks will be used for a tune harmonization, as well as for managing PMStyles which are able to calculate Pitch Bend melismas, according to the current Chord and Key.

Note 2:
Made in YV Enhancer Performance Modeling algorithms and methods of control will be used later in VST variant of YV Enhancer. Now that the wave calculation time in Vocaloid is very long, any talk about full real-time control is premature, especially considering huge amount of parameters that YV Enhancer has to calculate and send to Vocaloid.
