Take a listen to the styles on the Genos and the voices that come as OTS.
I take a good look at the content that you don't see in other vides and also give you some song alternatives that you can use for the song specific styles. PLEASE SUBSCRIBE to the channel - it helps my video to be seen - really appreciate it. Cheers

    I was the owner of Genos 1 when it launched. I was working full time when I got it but the Pandemic happened so I was forced to sell it to pay bills. I was very sad after I did that as I knew it didn't feel right and I didn't want to do it. I am saving up for Genos 2 and hopefully I will enjoy this magnificent machine again. Your videos have been the best. Yamaha should use your videos for reference as only truthful no BS and a person that genuinely enjoys the instrument.

    I agree, Yamaha would be wise to acknowledge Leigh Wilbraham’s thorough exploration of this exceptional machine, shedding light on its standout features and potential areas for improvement. By recognizing Wilbraham’s insights, Yamaha can better understand the nuanced aspects of their product and cater to the needs and preferences of their customers effectively. Additionally, leveraging Wilbraham’s expertise can enhance Yamaha's reputation for prioritizing customer feedback and innovation in their designs.

    Wow Leigh! This reminds me of the switch from Tyros 3 to 4, where it felt like the sounds of Tyros 4 had been smothered with butter and honey. This is obviously even better; silky smooth and mellow - a joy to hear. The sounds in Celtic Hymn (one of my faves), I just cannot wait to try it. Thank you so much for sharing and I am very much looking forward to years of goose bumps.

    Good on you, Leigh, another sensational demo and one hopes finally all the puzzling negativity which we experienced during the launch will have now dissipated. My Genos will be retired and, in the meantime, Sweetwater in Indiana will be sending the new Genos2 my way to San Diego, California, in 2 weeks. I have been enjoying this and your other Genos2 videos while going on extended walks around the lake near my home (it is a very good way to prevent a bad back). It’s perfect walking entertainment. Thank you again.

    Hello Leigh, another fabulous video again. I’ve since ordered a Genos2, I was shopping around and found some great trade in prices for my Genos1 & a couple of other older keyboards I have, the offer was too good to be true but it was true so I took it. Now just playing the waiting game but at least I can watch your videos to continue wetting my appetite ! The combo of this and my other two TOTL’s is going to be killer and will cover almost everything.

    Leigh I share your passion and have had tears .... watching You tube!!!! Thought that would never happen. My Genos 2 is scheduled to arrive early next week!!! Bought it from Sweetwater (I'm in Ohio, USA). I have had a Tyros 5 and know it inside out. Never pulled the trigger on Genos, and now I'm so excited I can't stand it. I have a P-515 piano hooked up via Midi with my Tyros, and it makes a HUGE difference in ability to express with the keyboard action. I can't wait to hook it up to Genos 2. I've been watching lots of videos, but frankly, I enjoy yours the most (not smoozing here)...because your authentic love and passion I share....and I've never player or heard a Genos live!!!! One technical question. I have lots of software for Tyros 5, including your amazing Epic Strings 1 and 2. Will the work via expansion manager with Genos 2, or will you be producing Genos 2 versions of your more popular products. Again, I have Tyros 5 versions and am hoping that my existing registrations (hours of tweaking as you can imagine) will transfer and be useful. However, what I have been learning from your videos is that I probably ought to just start over since Genos 2 is so more advanced than Tyros 5. You convinced me to go from T5 to G2. I'll be in touch to likely join your group if you'll have me. I love a variety of styles, love music, playing piano most of my life and love it, especially big band, jazz, and easy listening....and yes, ballads. Also appreciate your ability to move through the styles and just play like a regular guy like me. It makes me feel better about the 6,000 I just paid!!!! Open to any advice about how to get started and how much to mess with all my Tyros 5 stuff. You know how you can love past stuff, but who has the time when such amazing gold lives and awaits within this amazing instrument. Just full of gratitude (tis the season) to be able to afford it and have the health and mind to understand, play, and appreciate it. Thanks. I feel like I know you, and all I've really done is watched you on You Tube and appreciate your Epic Strings and Hollywood pack - and also some of the registration packs. Sorry for such a long post. You inspired it. Get some rest and food......lol. Dave Beam

    Yes, positivity is also weird unless you never heard the Genos 1. It's mostly Genos 1 users that are pissed, not because this is a bad keyboard, but because it's pratically the same. Nothing you hear here is something not doable in the Genos 1 sounding just the same. In fact, this Genos 2 just made Genos 1 one hell of a business opportunity before they start raising again, when this new baby doesn't sell...

    Hi Leigh, Many thanks for the entertainment and HQ demonstrations which clearly show the many enhancements and attractions of the new Genos 2. I'm pleased that I've ordered one. I only have one disappointment in Genos 2 - the lack of continuous sound capability when changing presets. This is momentarily noticeable in a couple of places when you change from amped guitar sounds to strings. I can live with it though.

I have a Tyros2, Tyros5 but it's getting too heavy. I'd setup and just want to take a nap. I did not have the money for the 28 pound Genos. I started saving for the Genos2. In the mean time I purchased the Medeli but it did not make the cut. I've save up the money and am gonna buy the Genos2 and a nice case in the next couple of weeks.

    Maestro, I love your playing! I got my Genos2 the day after launch (I'm probably the first lucky owner in Atlanta), having enjoyed my Genos1 since the first year it launched. Your catchy "got to lose control" video helped to sell me on it. Genos2 is truly a wonderful upgrade, but I'm finding some issues I wanted to share. The new style dynamic control setting cannot be saved into registration (even though the new style ambience setting can be saved). The full keyboard AI chord detection mode is much, much worse (Genos1 was about 98% accurate, Genos2 is about 75% accurate vs. the same songs, ugh...). Have experienced situations where polyphony apparently gets exceeded and style voices cut out for long periods of time, even though I'm playing my imported registrations and the Genos1 played them fine. Plus it is not seemingly possible that the cutouts happened due to polyphony truly being exceeded, there's just not that many voices being played when it happens. Speaking of imports, many of my expansion packs are not compatible via the Expansion Manager software, but I finally figured out that I could load them into Genos2 via a USB drive via the backup I took of the Genos1 drive (I followed the video Yamaha made on how to migrate data). Many of my imported Genos1 registrations don't restore the style and voice settings even when I used built-in styles and voices. While they fixed and improved lots of things with the software, some old nits remain. Why must I still press the uppercase arrow again after entering the 1st uppercase letter? It should work like Apple devices. Also, it is seemingly still impossible to remove MIDI/Audio songs from the home screen. All in all the plusses outweigh the minuses, but since I use the full keyboard AI chord detection pretty much all the time its lack of accuracy vs. Genos1 is a disappointment. I can't enjoy all the sound quality improvements when it keeps playing wrong notes. Hopefully they will find out about these issues and provide a firmware update. Looking forward to more of your videos about Genos2!

    I finally finished watching this today. I will agree with you that Yamaha has most certainly pulled out the stops on this keyboard. I think you've uploaded at least two more than I haven't fully watched yet. I am going to be especially interested in the Jazz, Big Band, Latin and Ballroom styles, since that's the music I play mostly. One thing I did notice was how good the Harmonica was, and I'm wondering if they have a Jazz Waltz that would work for Bluesette, which a Harmonica and a Jazz Guitar. Yes, if I had the available funds, I would probably buy one. Unfortunately, right now, I don't.

    It's crazy how some of these styles have been reworked. For example, I got "wild west" on my psr-s650, but obviously now that Genos is the top quality and also much newer, it takes it to a completely different level. And man, I love that whistle sound! I wish I had that on mine. I just don't know how accessible a Genos would be for someone without sight, like myself. On the psr-s650, everything important for me is layed out in a way that's very easy to find in just a few days. I wish there was a second edition, with the same design, but upgraded sounds.

    Nice! Im wondering, are the different arranger parts their own midichannel so if one would like to use a specific synt outside the Genos, to play that part in the accompaniment? Say there’s a basspart in the accompaniment that I would like to be played with a sound on a Moog? Can it be done? Oh, and are the drums still using different samples so that say a snare sounds just a little different for each hit. (Like on the original Genos) Thank you.

    I'm a big fan of Yamaha Musical instruments specially Pianos and Keyboards since i was 10 i had my first keyboard the PSR 240 a basic keyboard and upgrade to the psr e413 and dgx 650 and I liked the real piano sound of the CFIIS in the arranger Keyboards since tyros 4 but Genos 2 comes to the power of reality in the orchestral sounds as well guitars and bass also the synths

    Just watching this video again, and you’re playing ‘the Happening’ to Crime Comedy Rump style; sung by the supremes and I first heard it on a Herb Alpert MFP LP in 1970.

    The rearrangement effort is the most appealing thing about it. I wonder if the new versions of the styles will trickle down to the SX series, replacing all the basic 400-500 older ones they used to have. If so, its going to make the SX series a hit for the money. Unless you need some specific feature only Genos provides - a slightly improved SX engine should play these arrangements without a fuss.

    Really nice playing! But are the sounds really that much better, like are the pianos and synth sounds more high resolution? Are the orchestra sounds more life like or real sounding than the Genos 1? Really appreciate your videos and tutorials especially on how to make custom arrangements, please do one on the Genos 2 😊. Coming from a synth playing environment but wanting to downsize the “studio” and play for my own enjoyment and kind of tired of making tracks from scratch and fiddling with settings and midi wanting to sell most of my synths and gear and have a core instrument like the Genos.

    As a musician keyboards are my specialty also the genre which is the envy reggae which the band plays a lot as we are from Jamaica. Request after request from numerous demonstrators of both the genius 1 and 2 to do some reggae styles I do a one man band and reggae/sica/Calypso are essential. Before I blindly purchase would appreciate a detailed demo of reggae like you do for other genres and styles thank you very much

    Hello Leigh - I must admit that I was a little disappointed a few days ago, during the official presentation. But your videos made me change my mind and I could hear some very good developments - Even if, in my opinion, this Genos 2 could have been much more daring, with a few little things more (soft sound transitions system included, new guitars saturated, edition of more "pushing" FM sounds, etc. However, we must admit the sound quality and the qualitative increase in styles (Drums and effects)! Thanks for the show!

    Serious question here, I’ve owned Genos for almost 4 years, loved every moment, the seemingly endless creativity it inspires. I don’t need to upgrade, but for one reason. Is Genos2 worth upgrading to? Or just how much am I missing out on? Would like to hear your opinions

    @@andypruss Thank you very much for the answers. I hope in future update they will free one more GB for us who like importing new sounds. Are you familiar with company called sample creator from Italy? They did very good job making audio styles and samples for Genos that sounds fantastic, put sound on whole another level, but take a lot of memory. With their work we have some of Ketrons advantages also in Genos. So I hope they make more room for importing sounds.

One other thing l thought that might give a good comparison between the old and new if you agreed, would be to play the stalwart demo Game of Thrones that was one of the main demo songs when Genos first came out, on the old Genos 1 and then play it on the updated Genos 2 which will hopefully show the difference back to back. Great to watch your latest videos and hear what this new puppy can do!
