If the pads as such can not be assigned to certain keys, is there another way of having keys trigger chords? Ideally this should not be a global setting. I would need to do this just for certain combis.

(Sorry if this is a dumb question, but I have been out of the loop with regards to workstations for quite some time.)

No. It was not a feature in the past, and it's not a feature currently. The pads are the pads...
