 +Atm, some key combination lead to errors :\\ 
 +\\ 
 +The C64 keyboard pcb do not have signal leds. 
 +So, when you try to play some chords (no worry, only a few of them) the scan matrix do not read the keyboard correctly. 
 +I guess that problem exist on the real C64, but is not a problem because there'​s no need to press 4 keys at the same time, in a normal way of use. 
 +Most or all 3 notes chords can be played with no problem.\\
