Yes, thanks - I use the "Cd" track to enter my own progressions when recording songs.
However it just seems convenient to audition the preset templates for progressions I'd not normally create myself..
Some of those presets are listed in pairs and look tailor made for using as either verse or chorus.. The templates are well documented, and as you said, I can always just program the chords manually..?
As it is, Yamaha went to a lot of trouble to create the chord template functionality, to then hobble it somewhat by restricting it to one template per song.
It is still a lot of fun to set up the Part structure and then switch the templates around in Play mode.. I'll probably do this at some point and if I need to, record the results on another sequencer..
PS. what is "users/custom mode" you mentioned - is that referring to Song mode / record??
