Abstract
A method and apparatus for inhibiting the spurious recognition of new chords in an automatic chord recognition system by permitting a new chord group or chord type to be recognized only if the performer has operated the same or a greater number of keys since the last time an attempt was made to recognize a chord or the last time a valid chord was recognized.
