If I understand your patch correctly, you could replace the 2*3 number
boxes in the middle of "plays_major_then_minor_chord_rhythm" with 2*3
[float 0] objects. Connect the metros and delays to the -left- inlet, and
the [+ 0], [+ 3], [+ 7],... objects to the -right- inlet of the floats.
This way a change of the base note only -sets- the chord floats, but does
not output them directly. Only the metro's and the delay's bangs output the
chords then.
