(see also LAU: http://old.nabble.com/Suzuki-QC1-Qchord-Digital-Songcard-Guitar-td28495861.html ) Instead of the usual settings for arpeggiation range&style (1octave, 2octave && notes played in order vs. random, etc), you'd have arp range AND chord. Instead of playing the notes to arpeggiate, you'd play the root note of the chord and select a desired chord. Getting fancier, once a chord is set, you could do a discrete-glissando up and down the keyboard to "strum" the chord.
