I once had to explaine something similar, and made a simple ascii 
graphic for that. It may be helpful here:


In short words: The A190-2's work with a first-note algorithm, while Ian 
expects an lowest note algorithm.

Example with an C major chord (you have to read this with a 
non-proportional font like courier)

You think you do this:

  g ------------  ------------  -----------
  e ------------  ------------  -----------
  c ------------  ------------  -----------

but in fact you play like:

  g   ----------    -----------  ----------
  e  ----------   --------------  ----------
  c -------------  -----------     ----------

and this is the order how the A190-2's will output the notes

A190
#1 ccccccccccccc eeeeeeeeeeeeee gggggggggg   always the first note
#2  eeeeeeeeee    ccccccccccc    eeeeeeeeee  always the second note
#3   gggggggggg    ggggggggggg    cccccccccc always the third note
