Spot on it was redundant. 

The main finding is that the sound produced for chords is not too good. I have 
tried a number of instruments and none of the sounds
are satisfactory. Maybe the sustained nature of the chords has some effect or 
is the attack part of the sound still shaped as a
concert piano. It is certainly different to the sound of the melody notes.
