This guy is an absolute beast. Great talent!
The shape of this keyboard looks so unique....should look cool onstage.
Martin Harris, great demonstrator, I’ve seen his demos of some Yamaha’s keyboards such as Tyros 3, 4 and 5, and in this occasion, this Genos. Others great demonstrators are Michael Vonchen, who has done some demonstrations of many Yamaha keyboards since Tyros 1, PSR-2100, Tyros 2, Tyros 3 and some keyboard from PSR series, and Peter Bartmaans, who has performed some demonstrations for Tyros 4, Tyros 5 and some keyboard from PSR series since PSR-S910. I must admit that this Genos is better than Tyros 5 (which I acquired a month ago, one from second hand), but his high cost don’t justify it (this is perhaps the main reason why I could buy my Tyros 5, because its cost went down, I’m happy for my acquisition and its voices are spectacular). These revo! Drum kits have no comparison in this Genos, so all styles have a quality without limits, much better than audio styles in Tyros 5 and PSR-S950, PSR-S970 and the most recent PSR-S975. The thing that I disagree me is that joystick, I prefer the traditional pitch bend and modulation wheels. I hope save money in a few years to buy an eventual Genos 2 and work together with my Tyros 5 and my old PSR-2100 that is still alive.

The Tyros 5 is still a fantastic keyboard. As a matter of fact I almost bought one last year.
This man possesses exceptional skills.
I love Martin Harris he's the best Yamaha keyboard demonstrator I've heard.

Amazing keyboard,i really enjoy when play with my Genos.
Beautiful demo!
Got my genos one week ago; regret about not getting it years ago. I own roland rd 300, Kawai es8, yamaha mx88, and genos is the best among my keyboards
Great presentation!
I have a Genos and I'm concerned with the white light on the knob assign display screen...🤔 I say this as my Tyros2 developed a dodgy lcd screen early on. Saying this I'm actually in love with the Genos....fantastic demo!...🎹❤👍
Fantastic keyboard and demonstrator ...

What I like about the Yamaha Genos, is the 9 harmonic drawbars that is not available on the Yamaha Montage.
Thank you for testing. very beautiful sound.
Excellent demo and keyboard.
Great presentation
De nombreuses nouvelles sonorités ,mais trop de vieux styles internes. L'on peut s'amuser tout aussi bien avec un petit Psr 970 rempli de nouveaux kits et sonorités. Bonne continuation musicale et vive la musique.
Amazing sound!
Sounds good but being a Yamaha Electone player i find them to complicated to use and create drums patterns to stitch together to form a whole piece. (i have sx900) Wish they would design a bit better.
Martin haris play is vey,very good,Genos is very good saund
fantastc demo martin, awesome
Very, very good demo.
Fantastic instrument I just want to know now what speakers are being used.
Nice demo Mark! Obviously an accomplished player. Is there any kind of foot controller for the style variations similar to the FC-7 that roland uses?
On my Tyros 5 with Freeplay styles I am negatively surprised when change to another variation on a wrong time spot. Is that fixed in Genos?
Yamaha need to do something, the new korg pa5x blow this keyboard away. With smooth sound transition is a game changer for an arrangement keyboard.
Magnifique arrangeur.
I love my new Yamaha MODX8, but I wished that I could afford the Yamaha Genos too. I usually play with my new Yamaha MODX8 with my Roland VR-09 Combo organ (Keyboard) for drawbars, but when I rehearse with the bands, the Roland VR-09 just does not have enough keys for piano playing like the Yamaha Genos.
Yeah, I've been wanting to have one but the price is beyond my means... My current keyboard is Korg PA800.
I wish it had SST, seamless sound transition. I have one and it's great other than when you switch between sounds there is no sound carry over from the previous sounds. Something a top of the line keyboard should have like the Korg Kronos, Roland FA06/07/08, Yamaha Montage and Yamaha MODX.

Great video Martin, the sound is amaazing, and you make it the best! I have a question about the arranger loop function on the Genos 2, maybe you can help me? 20 years ago I used this function constantly on my Roland E-86 (made in 1994), to play or create the underlying chord progressions (often spontaneously), and then use two hands to play solos (LH on the modulation wheel or pitch bend, RH play saxophone or whatever); or, in a live setting, while leading worship I could establish a chord progression, and then physically depart from behind the keyboard, walk out to the front of the stage, and sing and lead the people in worship WHILE the E-86 kept playing the progression - and then after a while, go back behind the keyboard and seamlessly pick up in midstream (to play reharms or go into the chorus or B-section, etc). It was wonderful! Fast-forward 25 years, and now I use a Tyros 5, and it's a great keyboard, BUT sadly it doesn't allow for either of these powerful and useful functions. My Left Hand is forever trapped having to play the chord progressions, with only spits and spurts darting over the left to adjust the mod or pitchbend wheels, and always having to zip back to play the new chord on the down-beat (which is often the very moment when mod or pitchbending is most needed in an effective solo). And another thing: with the Tyros, my body is physically trapped behind the keyboard. I can't depart from behind the Tyros to get more physically present to lead or exhort the people. Alas, how I miss the arranger loop function! (I'm much less effective as a live performer without it.) So I'm very excited to see that the Genos 2 has the arranger loop!! Way to go Yamaha! So now.... I wonder: since this appears to be primarily a software update (and not a hardware feature that requires a separate set of buttons, like on the E86) ... could this feature possibly be programmed into an updated firmware or software version for the Tyros 5? Does anyone have any idea? I don't really want to leave my Tyros 5 yet, it's still an awesome keyboard; plus, the learning curve to learn the Genos is as much a deterrent as is the price to upgrade from the Tyros. So hopefully Yamaha will see fit to program this arranger loop function into the Tyros software or firmware, and not force us who REALLY need this feature, to buy a Genos2. Any idea about this Martin? I would love to hear from anyone about this.
Mmmthe best demo of all genos demo No
Can anyone tell me why Yamha didn’t include the Eb at the bottom of the keyboard ..and lose the top G...which I think no one uses anyway...serious question by the way ....I have Tyros 3.. tried the Genos in my local music shop ..missed that Eb on the bottom end.. going to do way with my electric piano and Tyros ...and just have the one keyboard...thus ...missed that Eb...saving my money to buy one ...hopefully...my wife might let me buy one for my own Christmas present😜😜😜.... great demo Mr Harris.🥃🥃🥃
It is awesome video.
OHHHHHHHHHHHHH my Gosh its awesomely good....
Magic sounds
Man I wish I had his playing skills.
If anyone buys this and takes the time to use it for all of these complicated features I'll be amazed. I have 2 Yamaha keyboards which I use for gigs most days of the week but they are far simpler than this. This thing has just gone right off the scale, literally.
Beaucoup trop de vieux styles déjà entendus de trop nombreuses fois sur les différents claviers Yamaha.

Motif XS blows Genos out of the water because it's intended for music production. Genos is an arranger so therefore it's intended for one man band or songwriters to record demos rather than serious music production.

Very nice keyboard in deed at a hefty price tag. Really nothing to complain about the sound beside maybe a little upgrade to the Organ World would have been nice, but for most users that is propably peanuts. But soundwise its still 94% the same as a Tyros 5. There always seem to be a "but, but..." with Yamaha ... Why oh why.. at this price tag .. why no horisontal touch keybed Yamaha ?? The STAGEA ELC-02 has been out for about 2 years now. Had really hoped they would have taken this feature from the nice but ugly Electone series
I read this has synth type keys?,that could be a deal braker,i like piano action,good piano action and 88 keys,like a montage,these people can never get it right.

Gran Review pero por mas que oigo al Yamaha Genos mas Artificial me parece, no es que suene mal ni mucho menos pero le falta algo de fuerza en sus sonidos, y lastima porque el concepto del Teclado es magnifico y su disposición de Interface lo hace "quizás" el mas intuitivo, pero en los sonidos Solistas o Samples principales les veo mas fuerza y naturalidad a los Korg tanto Kronos como su Rival directo el PA4x

Yamaha have always been keen on hefty use of onboard effects. For the most of the last 2 and a half decades most of their preset arrangements in their arranger keyboards always been "big" with loads of reverb and effects. Luckily it has also always been possible to adjust it :) But make no mistake .. the samplings of the big CFX Concert Grand really does sound nice. also without any reverb :) and even the Genos has a hefy price .. would love a CFX at home .. but the Genos is about 50 times more affordable (plus you don't have to buy a bigger house to get room for a CFX in the living Room ) .. :)

The reverb is only an option. Plus, used in the proper amount is adds realism. The grand piano sounds are modeled after Yamaha's finest grand pianos, without any added reverb.
It's nice BUT it's not right for songwriting unless you want to sound like everyone else who has this keyboard. You can't fine tune a song idea properly on something as generic as this. imo. 3 months of using it you will begin to get fed up of the presets 100% and that is not good imo.

Yes but the sound quality of the keyboard is more important than what it looks like. The Tyros 5 is still a prety damn good keyboard and I also prefer it's look over Genos and I very nearly bought a Tyros 5 last year but for now I have put it on hold. If I reconsider buying an arranger/workstation in a few years I'm thiking of possibly getting a Genos or if I can't afford to part with £3,000 I would settle for the Yamaha PSR-SX700 or SX900 as those are a mini Genos. My only reason for buying one is so I could have Yamaha's finest instrument samples in hardware form but for now I will stick with Halion 7.

@@libertysound589 Actually arranger keyboards are not intended for music production. As there is nothing wrong with Halion 7 I'm sticking with that and buying a Yamaha workstation would be a last resort. As I don't really use auto accompaniments there is no point in me buying an arranger keyboard.
Too much emphasis on the drums features. Same with styles of music demonstrated. Not everyone likes jazz or pop music. This sales pitch seemed to be aimed at teenagers.

Five thousand dollars, and it doesn't even do 6-Op FM. In fact they sell you a multi-sampled "DX" pack that's supposed to sound like a real DX (It doesn't). Why not just add the chip that costs about an extra $3 to manufacture? Yamaha has discovered that 6-Op FM is the "Carrot", even though they used to make beautifully sounding 8-Operator synths and organs, and then took them off the market, and replaced them with shitty 4-Op FM. It's 2018 for christ sake... When is Yamaha going to make a truly innovative Synth?
@LittleRichard1988
Жыл бұрын
That's because Genos is really an arranger. Yamaha Montage and MODX are synthesizer/workstations which do have FM synthesis capibility. Halion now also finally has FM synthesis with FM Lab in Halion 7.

Yes but the sound quality is more important than how it looks. I prefer the look of Tyros 5 and last year I very nearly bought one ( but I didn't ). However if I reconsider buyng an arranger keyboard in 2027 I might push the boat out and buy a Genos ( maybe by then there will be a Genos 2 which would drive the cost of Genos and Tyros 5 lower ). The Yamaha PSR-SX700 and SX900 are another possibility and a lot cheaper than a Tyros 5 or Genos.
Those guitars sound as... a keyboardist playing a keyboard with a guitar sample... sorry... only a guitar player that happens to play keyboards also, can sequence real sounding guitars...

Actually Halion has some decent sounding guitars that can pass as convincing to the average listener if you know how to sequence properly, even some of the electric guitars on my Roland JV-1080, SC-88 Pro and 8850 also still pass as realistic. Going back to the Genos, I disagree that it has poor quality guitars, the distortion guitars on both Genos and Tyros 5 are pretty damn good sounds. Although I have real guitars my playing skills are certainly upto session musician standards. In comparison the guitars on Genos are still way better compared to an early 90s Casio ToneBank keyboard or early 90s Yamaha PSR but back in the day I didn't have much choice but to make the best with what I had at the time, I didn't even own an acoustic guitar 30 years ago.
