We're back to where it all started. I remember back in the 70's walking in the shopping malls and a guy would be playing the organ with a rhythm box upgrade attached playing songs attracting buyers to come in and try out the organs!
That demo Paul was mind blowing, I’ve watched it 4 times already,I’ve had my G 2 now for 3 weeks and I can’t go to bed before midnight every night. Keep them coming Paul.😊😊😊Allan Robinson,Melbourne Australia.
They need to be more abstract composing with this is bordering on copyright infringement. The older models are much more vague which is better imo. The styles sound more like preset songs than styles. Unfortunate

I bought yamaha genos 4 years ago. I waited for an update to give this instrument a decent or even a bearable sequencer but nothing. Even with Genos 2.0 firmaware update you did nothing on that. You can even export multitrack so we can export our creation and mix it properly on a DAW. I really dont understand how a flagship “wprkstation”doesnt have a reall sequencer. You can only do midi/audio recording and step edit the midi messages which is like trying to create chiptunes music but even harder. You now have Genos version 2, so I dont believe that we all the owners of the first version will get any new firmware with new features. I really try to sell my keyboard to get anything from AKAI or even ROLAND Fantom or even a small stand alone groovebox in order to be able to produce music DAWless. Please forward a message to product managers to hep them understand that a workstation means DAWLess production and with Genos or even montage this is not possible at all.
My curiosity since I am a rank amateur ? What model of AKAI or ROLAND will You look at? I hope that the SOUNDS will be there? Will Your other choices have 88 keys??
Sounds fantastic as they all do, I’m starting to struggle with the styles being so realistic you may as well play along to an MP3 of the actual track…especially these styles that are clearly almost a whole tune in their own right. A fine line between playing itself and still being creative
hello My name is; Reuben I am in India I like music very much But I couldn't buy even a musical instrument because I didn't have enough income so I couldn't buy it Please do whatever you can to help I have yamaha genos 1 I humbly ask God to help me to buy it. Thank you Amen praise the lord I am working but I am not able to manage the salary as I am the only one in the family That is why
Can someone tell me why there is a plastic part above the display? New design? In my opinion the Korg Pa5x has the most beautiful design among arranger keyboards. ✌️😉🎹🎶🎵
The new design is to enhance the visibility of the main display and to sync the angles of main display and sub display. Yes. Korg pa5x definitely has the most beautiful design.
Thank you for the DEMO, TBH i did not see anything WOW in this G2. Great DX but not much and not so editable. I hope they will update it with more power.
3 minutes in and the grand piano does sound very nice, but the drums, bass, pad, electric guitar all sound identical to my ~10-year old PSR S900, and the price (and wasted hardware) of upgrading never made sense. So glad I switched over to a Native Instruments controller and a nice collection of VSTs.
NI? VSTs? I think you're missing the entire concept of arranger keyboards. It's not about just recording, it's about live performance with accompaniment.
When demonstrating VOICES, it would be very helpful to do that without including STYLEs. I bought my Yamaha Genos when it came our in 2017 and am trying to determine is the new VOICES are worth buying Genos 2. Thank you!
Would be nice to hear modern styles (if they exist on the Genos 2 - such as ambient/chilled Electronica, etc). I also love Latin styles (again, chilled, laid-back styles), so would be good to hear them, too (if they are present). I do like the look and sound of this arranger. Tempted, but need to hear more that is not the same-old, same-old.
They want you to program and sequence more modern grooves yourself. Much like with the regular synth keyboards like the Montage: you want modern sounds? Learn how sound design works and program them in yourself.
What a great presentation of Genos 2. It looks and sounds fantastic. Such huge improvements on Genos 1. No doubt it will be a huge, well deserved success! :)
Imagine this beast with modern backing tracks like sparky puffy ,modern gospel and modern Christian, and R&B/ neo soul. You wouldn’t be able to keep them on the shelf

I’m finding it very hard to believe that there exists a big enough market for a synth jam packed with styles from the 40s/50s and 60s. Don’t gel me wrong, I like it, but I’m certainly not representative of mainstream customers Weird
I noticed that you haven’t used the keyboard speakers on this demo, so it goes back to the old adage, it won’t sound as good as this when i get it home.
OMG……the new knobs are lighted. He talk‘s about this as if it were the first heart-transplant. Soundwise i can‘t hear such a big difference to Genos 1. Sorry, but i am a little bit disappointed so far. What about the leslie from the YC-series???
Beautiful performance and amazing product. While 80s and 90s sounds are great, but what about the current 2023 and beyond sounds ??? And how about classic and emerging Indian (Bollywood) sounds? Thank you
Looks and sounds fantastic with all the new bells and wistles. The demonstrator chap made a good point, these new instruments sound great when played by a proffessional (well polished demonstratator at that) demonstrator. You get get it home, you dont know any of the tweeks, and sugary additions and it doesn't sound any where near as.good? But i think ill give this one (as this demo was so good and iam very familiar with yamaha stuff) the benefit of the doubt. Ive heard it said you are only ever as good as your backing. The backings and intros and outros were fantastic. My uncle being a singer said the same 'your only ever as good as your backing'. Hopefully the same logic would apply to playing this lovely new instrument from yamaha? If i can ever afford the item ?
Guitar center has these for sale on pre order for $5699.00. I had to watch a video after seeing the price. I'm not disappointed by the comments. My thoughts exactly
Very good presentation, as usual Tony, however; we are looking forward to see a detailed comparison between Genos 2 and the Korg Pa-5X, from your end. Many thanks from Egypt.
Ohh no broo, After the latest series from Yamaha modx+ and Yamaha montage series m6, m7 and m8x, now Yamaha genos 2, will there also be an increase in the series on the 2nd version of the Sri Yamaha psr sx900?, I hope so
Yikes, sounds awesome - If you had the talent (I don’t) to sing and play, you could be the one man band at weddings or other events without having to carry too much gear. Beautiful!
This has been a fantastic video. It kept me not just enjoying finding out about the Enos2, but I have been totally entertained and could listen to more. I'm ready to put it on my list. I've been through the gamut of keyboards sing the 80's. The most important was the FM generator built in. I'm just curious of the polyphany of the DX7 FM?
We honestly expected more from the new Genos. Yamaha only took into account very few of my recommendations and those of the community, and that by applying some requests of the users only partially. Nothing special in terms of appearance or even an adjustable screen. The color remains the same black which is a magnet for dust. How beautiful a Tyrois 5 looks compared to a Genos and the new genos 2 is even uglier than Genos 1 if we can call it that now. Genos 2 also sounds good, but honestly I had much higher expectations. 6 years is nothing, so they had time to achieve something truly new. That Ambiance Drums also exists on Genos 1, but it's not called that. The sampler memory remained unchanged, the tones from Dx bring something new, but they could anyway be made in Yamaha Expansion Manager and for the Genos 1 version, the new rhythms can be simply loaded from USB and Genos 1, so they remain only small additions retouches of eq and reverb that we each modify to our liking and which may not be to everyone's taste. In my opinion, Genos 2 is too little and too late, but with all that, as for the sound... yes, it is and remains above the competition, just like Genos 1.
Thanks for the cool video. Do we find smooth sound transition as we can find it on the Pa5X?

Yamaha, Korg,Ketron,au final les hauts de gamme de ces marques se valent,tout dépend de ce que l'on va faire avec ces claviers et ce pour quoi ces claviers dont destinés, aucune comparaison ne peut être faite, il faut juste acheter le clavier qui va le mieux servir à l'univers musical que l'on fait.une très bonne continuation musicale et vive la musique 🎹.
In 2016, I started with a new PSR S970, and so commenced my 'self teaching' of playing as a new beginner. I would certainly now upgrade to G2 having heard this demo. I did visit the Milton Keynes store to see the original Genos and it was superior to the S970 of course! At 61, I will never be as good as you two in playing ability, but what a motivation to keep learning. Having seen a G2, I believe Yamaha may have missed a trick though, there is no 'quantize' button when creating multi pads. Is there an alternative way that's a s good as quantize?? Thank you for this demo.
Your comment perfectly match the situation 😂. Again Yamaha is just trying to sell us something that they could have easily implemented into the G1 with a V3 update. I think Yamaha will never give us things like KORG does (guitar mode, time slice, etc…). Again we’ll have to deal with external softwares. So no thanks to me. I’m happy with my G1. And next year I will move to a PA-5x. Of course I will keep my G1, T3 and all others.
My only fault I find with the styles is that sometimes it's better to have great sounding styles that aren't trying to sound like a song, to make them more universally usable and to give you the 'musician' a unique sound and take for any song you play. It can be a bit confining to always sound so much like the original. My keyboard history include the PSR7000, TYROS, TYROS 2, and Tyros 5, and I always took care in reimagining songs for stage use by altering and crafting styles to give the song something new and unique to our act. It becomes harder to do when you find a style that is so good and true to a song (but not quite right due to copyright) that it makes it harder to be original. I suppose for a true original sound these days, use a synth and or computer software sequence instead and create it from scratch. Though i believe you can still create your own on yhe keyboard?? Not sure. That said being able to adjust the ambience of the rhythm is easier now than having to save plenty of registrations of incremental changes to the parts of thr style for a bigger hit on stage, that is good. It is a great sounding keyboard, and ever since the tyros 2 (and motif and montage) ive struggled to find another brand of keyboard that gets the sound, feel and special nuances of an acoustic guitar like Yamaha does.

Thank you for the video. As someone that has low vision I'm wondering does the Yamaha Genos 2 finally have a screen reader built in that reads everything?
I love it I can just imagine this guy in the legion belting out the old styles and the dance floor rocking with replacement hips lol great fun , Tony looks a little embarrassed 😂😂😂 Now where did input that spare 4grandci had laying about.
I think that is the biggest blunder with this machine, and as far as I can understand this cannot be increased. You can only use USB thumb drives, which is quite an old fashioned approach, certainly expect something better from a top of the line machine.
The word about the screen he was looking for is NITs brightness value (but didn’t quote the actual nits value). Just dynamic screen what on earth does that even mean?!
Each new iteration is the same: it is great, better than before and so on.... Only incremental changes, which could have been mostly done on previous hardware. IMO, that tilted display is awful and removes all the sweet sleek looking the Genos 1 had. Plenty of lights (more things to eventually fail). And then they say the previous features were buggy, as the sliders functions. So they throw trash over people who bought previous instruments, which is what has allowed them to build this one!. Just madness and consumer fooling. THen, in 6 years, GENOS 3 will be the ultimate and will "fix" some of the GENOS 2 faults. And so on forever... My advice: ENJOY WHAT YOU HAVE and LEARN TO PLAY BETTER. That is 95% of the music you play, not just a fancy instrument
I own tyros 4. I'm using a lot of my custom styles,pads and registration memory. Is it posible to convert my styles and registration from T 4 to Genos 2 to sound correctly?
I like my Yamaha djx ,, one and two ,, I got both of them ,, this is nice very beautiful ,,,the 800 styles is nice ,, but as a arranger player ,, really no one can make a arranger that can please the artist ,, I have never seen one that could I always have to add a synth with the arranger or some other kind of keyboard insterment in order to get what I want ,,, I Love Yamaha they are amazing ,, I have Yamaha PSRsx900 and Yamaha MODX61 wich I Love both of them and I still use other synths with them in order to get what I want ,,,I would like a arranger with styles like Nexus 3 and Avenger with a Moog synth , sounds ,,,my little Novation mini nova ,,I still use it Love it and Roland mini synth ,,I got to have them ,,even if I bought this Genos 2 I still would be limited as to how I was to make music ,,,Its beautiful would Love to have it ,,,Yamaha is amazing ,, Yamaha arrangers and synths makes me a happiers man in my life just to have these amazing keyboard instruments ,,,so beautiful.
Does this mean arranger keyboards aren't just for one man bands? Would this be worth buying if auto acompaniments is not your thing and sequencing backing tracks is more your thing? It's just as well I don't have a music shop near where I live anymore because even if I had a whirl on a Genos in a music shop I would have bought one. As a matter of fact last year I came very close to buying a Yamaha Tyros 5 partly because the Tyros 5 was cheaper, I think £2,000 seems to be the typical price a used Tyros 5 goes for and it's also good that some sellers are selling them without the stand. That's one good thing about Yamaha bring out a new flagship arranger/workstation is the fact that it tends to drive the prices down on all the previous models such as Genos, Tyros 4 and Tyros 5. Did he mention that the Genos 2 Legacy sounds are now preloaded as an expansion pack?
Still the old generation music style. Nothing changes. It is very expensive oldies keyboard. I feel like listening the CASIO in the year 1890. The real price I expect for that products is $200USD
@@allthingsaudio4610 then why the heck are you watching and commenting such hardware synth demonstration videos anyway???? Go and enjoy your vst plugins. Nobody cares.
@@MaverickM1 this is RUclips where you watch and comment. Too bad you dont like my comment. Sounds like a personal problem. I dont see in my comments where I was even talking to you. Did I strike a nerve. Get out of your feelings.
Professional or home use for any experienced keyboard player. Genos 2 is an arranger so the auto accopmpaniments are the main selling point of an arranger so it's an ideal keyboard if you just want to sit down and play with auto accompaniments and Genos is also a useful tool for songwriters to make demo tracks. But if midi sequencing and creating custom sounds is more your thing or your playing on stage with a band the Yamaha Montage M might be a better choice. In short Genos 2 is ideal for the keyboardist who plays as a one man band whereas Montage M is better for the more serious composer doing midi sequencing.
Yamaha Motif is still a fantastic tool for music production, I might get a used Yamaha Motif XS rack in the future as you can now get rack versions of Motif for under a grand. I also have Halion 7.
well he demonstrate a lot of styes that i say 50s 60s and 70s ish styles - are there any more electronic styles some more modern styles on board or is everything just old fashion ?
well that makes the instrument worth more for the old fashion people than for me - thats a pity - for that price I would expect a few more modern styles
@@MrMoxx02 Not everyone is into boogie woogie, so I'd expect more modern styles for the price as well. It's like they don't want money, they restrict themselves to appealing mainly to elderly boogie woogie afficionados.
Why all Yamaha arrangers demos are so « old fashioned ». What I do with my Clavinova CVP-709 is much different… these demos deserve the product for new generations.
It is interesting how the demonstrator tries to justify removed features by desperately trying to make it seem like they are things that are not needed :D For example, the fixed screen...or the memory going from 58GB to 15GB...they are not a limitation right? :D
i'm not too impressed with the styles that are tailored for a specific song. that can help a covers band, maybe. but for that purpose I would get a karaoke track or something. for a karaoke/ sound of band X, this is a very expensive solution. it needs to be more general. and cheaper please. And yes, this guy looks more like an insurance broker, but no judging. they can play, too.
We're back to where it all started. I remember back in the 70's walking in the shopping malls and a guy would be playing the organ with a rhythm box upgrade attached playing songs attracting buyers to come in and try out the organs!

The styles are so spot on that no matter what you compose around them, they each sound like a particular song.
They need to be more abstract composing with this is bordering on copyright infringement. The older models are much more vague which is better imo. The styles sound more like preset songs than styles. Unfortunate

Agreed its now a five grand play along keyboard, once you had a few weeks on it you'll be thinking 5 grand OMG
don't cry and don't struggle. play any way you want.
Demos with „Tony from Bonners“ are always a big pleasure to see and hear 😀🎹🦾
Can you record audio alongside the MIDI tracks so you can remix later? Like on Akai MPC Key 61? If not, an obvious improvement missed

Can someone tell me why there is a plastic part above the display? New design? In my opinion the Korg Pa5x has the most beautiful design among arranger keyboards. ✌️😉🎹🎶🎵
I think it has to do with the new angle of the screen. The plastic is like a holder and new design feature. Mainly looks.
Just new design, no purpose. So people won't feel that Genos 2 could've been a software update.
The new design is to enhance the visibility of the main display and to sync the angles of main display and sub display.
Yes. Korg pa5x definitely has the most beautiful design.
They just added a bump/mountain just to cover few design flaws. Ugly keyboard
@@judsonchristudas korg pa5x seems way better in design
It feels to me like several rather brilliant changes have been made the exterior, many coming from Montage, to Genos 2.
Guess, its the ultimate wedding piano player equipment
There’s a lot of people in small bars across the country making a living or supplementing an income using equipment like this that sounds way worse
very rightly said...
I have a Roland Fantom 8 and it cannot produce this quality of sound without spending a month programming it.
Thank you for the DEMO, TBH i did not see anything WOW in this G2. Great DX but not much and not so editable. I hope they will update it with more power.

Another great release from Yamaha!
The demo music are super retro. Felling like a young man living 20 years before I was born.
I was really looking foward to it but Im not impressed till now ,its great having fm engine but what about Style creator?
What a great presentation of Genos 2. It looks and sounds fantastic. Such huge improvements on Genos 1. No doubt it will be a huge, well deserved success! :)

Buy me one, I'll program those in and sell the sound packs (you get a free copy for you, of course) 😉
Still don't have REALTIME DRUM ADJUSTMENTS and RESET COUNT-IN when Singers are late or early
Why does this cost so much more than the montage m?
Com exceção da qualidade dos Styles a Yamaha acertou no restante. Vocês precisam colocar no Genos 2 a mesma qualidade de Styles do Tyros 5.

I think Yamaha will never give us things like KORG does (guitar mode, time slice, etc…). Again we’ll have to deal with external softwares.
So no thanks to me. I’m happy with my G1. And next year I will move to a PA-5x. Of course I will keep my G1, T3 and all others.
Tony doesn't seem arsed his face says how will I shift these over priced machines??
Waiting for mine and cant wait
Design flaw I've been telling for years: Cant use L Angled jacks. See how its connected, see for yourself.
lol, when you're right you're right
GENOS 2 is The Very Best! It's my Dream❤❤❤❤❤
Do you sell Rhumba drums loop in audio format ?
I have the Genoa 1 . Can you add the subwoofer speakers and subwoofer systems? How are the Latin Styles?
My only fault I find with the styles is that sometimes it's better to have great sounding styles that aren't trying to sound like a song, to make them more universally usable and to give you the 'musician' a unique sound and take for any song you play.
It can be a bit confining to always sound so much like the original.
My keyboard history include the PSR7000, TYROS, TYROS 2, and Tyros 5, and I always took care in reimagining songs for stage use by altering and crafting styles to give the song something new and unique to our act. It becomes harder to do when you find a style that is so good and true to a song (but not quite right due to copyright) that it makes it harder to be original.
I suppose for a true original sound these days, use a synth and or computer software sequence instead and create it from scratch. Though i believe you can still create your own on yhe keyboard?? Not sure.
That said being able to adjust the ambience of the rhythm is easier now than having to save plenty of registrations of incremental changes to the parts of thr style for a bigger hit on stage, that is good.
It is a great sounding keyboard, and ever since the tyros 2 (and motif and montage) ive struggled to find another brand of keyboard that gets the sound, feel and special nuances of an acoustic guitar like Yamaha does.
hello
My name is; Reuben
I am in India
I like music very much But I couldn't buy even a musical instrument because I didn't have enough income so I couldn't buy it
Please do whatever you can to help I have
yamaha genos 1
I humbly ask God to help me to buy it.
Thank you
Amen praise the lord
I am working but I am not able to manage the salary as I am the only one in the family That is why

Thank you for the video. As someone that has low vision I'm wondering does the Yamaha Genos 2 finally have a screen reader built in that reads everything?
I love it I can just imagine this guy in the legion belting out the old styles and the dance floor rocking with replacement hips lol great fun , Tony looks a little embarrassed 😂😂😂 Now where did input that spare 4grandci had laying about.
Do you still have the keyboard for small hands?
According to official Yamaha specs … internal memory (AWM sounds?) dropped from 58GB (Genos1) to 15GB (Genos2). That’s horrible, if true.
I think that is the biggest blunder with this machine, and as far as I can understand this cannot be increased. You can only use USB thumb drives, which is quite an old fashioned approach, certainly expect something better from a top of the line machine.
hope not was going to buy the genos 2. Well I’m might get the montage m6 I figured out how to import the psr styles inside the modx6 as arpeggios.
mine is coming tomorrow ❤❤❤❤
The word about the screen he was looking for is NITs brightness value (but didn’t quote the actual nits value). Just dynamic screen what on earth does that even mean?!
How much price and where we get to buy please?
350 Dollar
It cost £3,599 rn
Can you add the subwoofer speakers to the new Genos ?
what can you do with 800 pieces now 🤔🤔🤔
Where can I buy these keyboard?
I wonder if arranger keyboard are popular outside of Europe and India
Indonesia & Singapore are massive markets for Yamaha.
Yes, lots of elderly men buy arranger keyboards in the USA
Thank you 🙂👍🎹❤️🔥
In a word, is it worth upgrading?
Unlikely, unsure
No
Each new iteration is the same: it is great, better than before and so on.... Only incremental changes, which could have been mostly done on previous hardware. IMO, that tilted display is awful and removes all the sweet sleek looking the Genos 1 had. Plenty of lights (more things to eventually fail). And then they say the previous features were buggy, as the sliders functions. So they throw trash over people who bought previous instruments, which is what has allowed them to build this one!. Just madness and consumer fooling. THen, in 6 years, GENOS 3 will be the ultimate and will "fix" some of the GENOS 2 faults. And so on forever... My advice: ENJOY WHAT YOU HAVE and LEARN TO PLAY BETTER. That is 95% of the music you play, not just a fancy instrument
I own tyros 4. I'm using a lot of my custom styles,pads and registration memory. Is it posible to convert my styles and registration from T 4 to Genos 2 to sound correctly?
Not really. Different file paths.
But when you put the registrations into OTS, this could transfer it.
3:45 How many keyboards have moving screens?
Not enough
Tyros, Korg, Technics had way before than Yamaha
This is so darn fun
It’s stale Stilton-level cheese of course, but…grate still! I remember the old Casio VL-Tones. This is like one of those on steroids.
I like my Yamaha djx ,, one and two ,, I got both of them ,, this is nice very beautiful ,,,the 800 styles is nice ,, but as a arranger player ,, really no one can make a arranger that can please the artist ,, I have never seen one that could I always have to add a synth with the arranger or some other kind of keyboard insterment in order to get what I want ,,, I Love Yamaha they are amazing ,, I have Yamaha PSRsx900 and Yamaha MODX61 wich I Love both of them and I still use other synths with them in order to get what I want ,,,I would like a arranger with styles like Nexus 3 and Avenger with a Moog synth , sounds ,,,my little Novation mini nova ,,I still use it Love it and Roland mini synth ,,I got to have them ,,even if I bought this Genos 2 I still would be limited as to how I was to make music ,,,Its beautiful would Love to have it ,,,Yamaha is amazing ,, Yamaha arrangers and synths makes me a happiers man in my life just to have these amazing keyboard instruments ,,,so beautiful.
Does this mean arranger keyboards aren't just for one man bands? Would this be worth buying if auto acompaniments is
not your thing and sequencing backing tracks is more your thing? It's just as well I don't have a music shop near where I
live anymore because even if I had a whirl on a Genos in a music shop I would have bought one. As a matter of fact last
year I came very close to buying a Yamaha Tyros 5 partly because the Tyros 5 was cheaper, I think £2,000 seems to be
the typical price a used Tyros 5 goes for and it's also good that some sellers are selling them without the stand. That's
one good thing about Yamaha bring out a new flagship arranger/workstation is the fact that it tends to drive the prices
down on all the previous models such as Genos, Tyros 4 and Tyros 5. Did he mention that the Genos 2 Legacy sounds
are now preloaded as an expansion pack?
If sequencing backing tracks is more your thing, get a PC with a DAW and a Montage for sounds, or Native Instruments Komplete for your sounds.
Yamaha what happened to grand piano of e473?
Still the old generation music style. Nothing changes. It is very expensive oldies keyboard. I feel like listening the CASIO in the year 1890. The real price I expect for that products is $200USD
It sounds dated even for the oldies!
This keyboard sounds horrible. Id rather spend my money on a vst.
@@allthingsaudio4610 then why the heck are you watching and commenting such hardware synth demonstration videos anyway???? Go and enjoy your vst plugins. Nobody cares.
@@MaverickM1 this is RUclips where you watch and comment. Too bad you dont like my comment. Sounds like a personal problem. I dont see in my comments where I was even talking to you. Did I strike a nerve. Get out of your feelings.
Great demonstration .
when is new sx comming?
Is it for professional use?
Professional or home use for any experienced keyboard player. Genos 2 is an arranger so the auto accopmpaniments
are the main selling point of an arranger so it's an ideal keyboard if you just want to sit down and play with auto
accompaniments and Genos is also a useful tool for songwriters to make demo tracks. But if midi sequencing and
creating custom sounds is more your thing or your playing on stage with a band the Yamaha Montage M might be
a better choice. In short Genos 2 is ideal for the keyboardist who plays as a one man band whereas Montage M is better
for the more serious composer doing midi sequencing.
So it’s a CD player?
Excellent
To whom how I don’t know but So,I liked Yamaha genos 2,
Is the chasis plastic like Anterior Model?
Seriously? Still no pads?
I still love the Motif XS 8
Yamaha Motif is still a fantastic tool for music production, I might get a used Yamaha Motif
XS rack in the future as you can now get rack versions of Motif for under a grand. I also have
Halion 7.
This guy would fit right in entertaining at Butlins.
Wow, the wrong guy to sell this to anyone under the age of 60!
Probably because those under 60 are not the target audience.
@@Jason75913Not sure about this 🤷♂️
I'm 21 and I'd buy this if I had the money to. Seems like a fun time for me!
@@Jason75913 Why would you say this
@GreenBoy9000 im 20 and i agree.
well he demonstrate a lot of styes that i say 50s 60s and 70s ish styles - are there any more electronic styles some more modern styles on board or is everything just old fashion ?
Nope, you program those in yourself.
well that makes the instrument worth more for the old fashion people than for me - thats a pity - for that price I would expect a few more modern styles
@@MrMoxx02 Not everyone is into boogie woogie, so I'd expect more modern styles for the price as well. It's like they don't want money, they restrict themselves to appealing mainly to elderly boogie woogie afficionados.
Wow . Absolutely beautiful. What a keyboard 🎉!
61-key genos 2 Expected?
Why all Yamaha arrangers demos are so « old fashioned ». What I do with my Clavinova CVP-709 is much different… these demos deserve the product for new generations.
Though the demo music was a bit dated, this is one badass arranger keyboard.
Dear God! Classic DX7 sounds not a samples! That you can combine with the other sounds? Wow Yamaha delivered a KO blow
Can't edit them, tho...
This shall be the holy grail?
@@GizzyDillespee yup, it's like they decided if editing on DX7 was a pain so nobody prolly gon' use it
@@tom221263 nowadays everything with real engine inside is a relief, kinda tired of vsts in the box
Screen diagonal reminds me my Roland VA7 long time ago an also midi to style software 😢
Perfekt !
can you please do 88 keys on the next genos
It is interesting how the demonstrator tries to justify removed features by desperately trying to make it seem like they are things that are not needed :D
For example, the fixed screen...or the memory going from 58GB to 15GB...they are not a limitation right? :D
I expected a Genos with a Montage 7 design... so sorry...maybe the next one..
i'm not too impressed with the styles that are tailored for a specific song. that can help a covers band, maybe. but for that purpose I would get a karaoke track or something. for a karaoke/ sound of band X, this is a very expensive solution. it needs to be more general. and cheaper please. And yes, this guy looks more like an insurance broker, but no judging. they can play, too.
