#Step tap playback / better step edit mode

Apologies if this has already been mentioned!

I would love if Move would playback the notes I have entered when I go to edit a step of a polyphonic instrument. Trying to decipher what chord voicing I have entered into a step in chromatic mode is a bit more difficult than I am used to, and when I attempt to hear the voicing back when tapping and holding, I end up disabling every note of the chord. I then have to undo every single note un-toggle to get the chord back.

#

Quick background: I will always primarily use move in chromatic mode and with a USB keyboard (I write music with lots of chord changes).

Sorry to change the title so often, this is difficult for me to explain! Here is lots more detail: If I write a 4 note chord into step one of bar 16, and want to hear just that step, I either have to play the entire loop up until bar 16, or tap and hold on bar 16 and, through chromatic mode, re-decipher what notes I punched in. I am very new to chromatic mode, and find it a bit awkward to look at (sorry!), so this takes a bit of time. When I tap and hold the step, I usually end up re-tapping every note that is lit, which then deletes them from the step, so I then have to undo all of that. I would much prefer this workflow: On tapping a step, I would like Move to light up and play all notes that are on that step. Maybe I could press delete to delete just that step? Or I could edit all of the parameters of that step without needing to hold its corresponding button? This might work best as its own "Step Edit" mode, which is why I included that in the title. Playback on tap is most important to me, as it would quickly allow me to check chord voicing and voice leading, and listen through chord changes.
