I have not be able to get Jos Maas Chord Player to work. I can only get a few intro clicks. The program is very basic compared to Producer.
I have beeen able to just do the basics with Producer. I have only spent time with item no 1 .
I am not sure of all the other functions. Here is the intro for the help file of Producer.
Has anyone come across a video for this ?

Producer is a powerful tool for creating or editing Step
Record files that, when Played or Expanded on the PSR,
generates accompaniment parts.
With it you can:
1 Create a backing midi song by entering chords on a
spreadsheet screen using the mouse and an on-screen
menu; no typing, no errors. Layout markers facilitate
organizing your song, and cut, copy and paste functions
make it easy to move or duplicate musical sections (e.g.
verse, chorus). Editing tools are provided for transposing,
modifying chord complexity (e.g. jazzing up-down), and
creating pedal points.
2 Edit chords in a Quick Record midi on the PC, and then
rebuild the song, using the same or a different style, without
having to repeat your performance. It is easy to correct or
add chords, add or move fills, change variations, modify
tempo, and mute, solo or adjust the volume of style parts.
3 Make a PSR Step Record midi on the PC from any midi or
karaoke song by using chords in the song to trigger a PSR
accompaniment and using the melody tracks, if desired, for
the right hand parts. Karaoke lyrics can also be converted for
use by the PSR’s display.
4 Send your file with its chord event to a sequencer for
addition or correction of note events. The song, including the
accompaniment, can be auditioned from the sequencer
