The Mainstage plugin works very well. There's a "single" mode where every key triggers the same intervals in a parallel fashion and a "multi" mode where each key can trigger any notes you desire.

Yes! MIDI Chord Trigger in Multi mode was just what I needed. Great plugin, and the 'Learn' mode is simple to program. And it was hiding in plain sight!

Thanks, Kurt.
And thanks, Shoosh, for the DP method. I'll look into it when I have a sec.
