Yep, but it's a pretty good one. AIRC it' s reasonably polyphonic, 
i.e., you can assign a channel for chords, up to 8 or 9 notes to play 
at once, instantly at the touch of a button. In fact, I'm designing a 
chord maker for a few different reasons, 1) to add to the enableware 
onscreen keyboard interface, 2) to teach myself chords, 3) to build 
into a track recorder (progression loops).

There is no tempo control, but because it plays dynamically, you can 
define a timed loop via normal scripting with a variable.

It already has a MIDI instrument picker that covers all the Roland MIDI 
instrument set, including GS extended instruments, available to the 
current version of QT.
