Actually I got both of them, but what I tested is totally different with what you said in the viedo，I think LAVA GENIE is better in many aspects like： 1. LAVA GENIE is using the dual driver speaker that bring the greater sound vloume and bass, I can say that the sound in LAVA GENIE is the best in this new category, you can test again. 2.The app has a lot of Chinese songs just search then you will see it. 3. The Tap pad design is amazing, it provides instantaneous triggering without any latency issues, but my liberlive has that issue. 4. For the presets loading, that's true that GENIE takes longer than Liberlive to download presets cuz we have a more complex and delicate sound than Liberlive. But you once you download the preset at the first time it won't take long to switch next time. And LAVA GENIE has over 500 presets in the APP, much more than the Liberlive.
I have both and agree with you on the sound quality but a couple of things I like about the Lava is that it can hold 5 custom patterns with sounds at one time. The pads give you three extra customizable controls where the LiberLive only has the two paddles I find the lights are better on the LiberLive too and I prefer the key change wheel as I always bump the change button accidentally on the Lava. Overall the Lava has more potential for change as they improve their app
Thanks for the video. After using it more now, how would you compare it with LibreLive? I ve never played guitar and want to choose between LiberLive and Lava Genie. Which one would you suggest?
Thanks Shengli for reviewing the Lava Genie! A couple of things: 1. The 5 touch pads for right hand are designed to provide instantaneous triggering without any latency issues, and to avoid confusions when the sound is going to be triggered during the flip down action. 2. The left hand touch pads are non-haptic so that it is sensitive and responsive to light touches. 3. There is no latency when switching presets. The latency in the video was probably due to the Genie was never ever paired to the Lava+ app straight out of the box. Lava Genie was never designed as a replacement of a guitar. It is a new type of musical instrument that is easy to pick up, and ready for professional uses. Don't forget Lava Music still makes awesome guitars like Lava Me Air, Lava Me 4 and Lava Me Play, if the intention is to play a guitar 😊 The best thing is, Music Connoisseur has all models of Lava Me guitars, as well as the Lava Genie, ready for you to try out and experience by yourself. Come over to any of our showrooms to have the full understanding and experience of the Lava Genie, and other Lava Me guitars.
I think both are nicely designed, what I like about the Lava Genie is it has a lot more sounds, so even if you don't like one of them personally, it still has a lot to offer. I personally enjoy playing their electric guitar sound and synths sound a lot.
Some information for everyone: 1. The app has a lot of Chinese songs, almost every popular song. Search the name and you will see it. 2. The fingerboard is made with Apple official iPhone case level silicone, the best of the category. If Guitarstreet spend a couple more minutes playing it, he will appreciate more. 3. The sound part is also ridiculous. GENIE has the most advanced audio system in the category, if one is very used to unnatural sounds, listening to a more natural sound, one will be confused.
Thank you for the information Louis. Here's my thoughts on your points, if I may: 1. That's excellent! The Lava Genie's app is done much better vs the LiberLive. I like that it is much easier to follow along for songs, and you have full songs. I understand that Lava paid the necessary copyrights for the songs, which I really respect a lot. 2. We did purchase the Lava Genie in the end, and I've spent time playing with it. My opinion is I do prefer the rubber pads on the LiberLive. 3. This is actually where I am clearest: The LiberLive wins hands down in terms of sound quality (I'm referring to acoustic guitar sounds). The people I've asked thought the LiberLive sounds better than the Lava Genie as well. Again, this are our subjective opinions, which I hope you can respect. While I have you here, a couple of points I want to make: 1. I play the Lava Me 4 and that's one of my favorite guitars, regularly featured in my videos, so I respect what you guys do at Lava Music a lot. ruclips.net/user/shortssvAEJS4UXZc?feature=share 2. The app and user experience for the Lava Genie is much better than that of LiberLive. Great job on that one. 3. I'm concerned about how similar the Lava Genie is to the LiberLive... I feel like it borders on plagiarism.
@ It’s funny that when you do the comparison you didn’t even mention we have 10-20 times more sounds than the others. This is one of our main advantages, and that is a fact, not one’s “subjective” opinion. Why didn’t you say that out loud? 1. OK. 2. Why did you purchase it If you don’t like it? The fingerboard pad on the GENIE is much better, the other one is just a regular quality silicone. Saying that one is better it’s like saying a 3rd party normal iPhone case is better than the official iPhone case. Understandable, but very strange opinion. 3. That’s where you’re clearly wrong. We didn’t put crazy amount of mid-bass frequencies to the recording like the others, because that will make the acoustic guitar sound very unnatural especially when you are plugging it in and playing strumming patterns, very unnatural, and the frequency is conflicting with the drums and bass. The other brands are almost like those early Beats by Dre headphones, heavy bass but unnatural. Not good. Almost every person we talked to preferred our sound, especially the electric guitar sounds. 1 & 2: OK. 3: I think you’re a LiberLive paid partner. We entered a category that we didn’t create, and clearly GENIE is much better and versatile product. Like iPod is not the first mp3 player as well. Not sure how it concerns you.
@@guitarstreetyou complained about everything the genie is different from liberlive, then you complained about plagiarism. Either you are a fifth columnist, or you are a Singapore Karen.
Please, at least read the instruction manual before posting a video about it. You can't really form an opinion if the reviewer does not know what some of the controls/features do.
Hey Louis, it's an honour to meet you. LiberLive did send across a LiberLive guitar to me, and I'm an affiliate, but I'm not paid otherwise. This is a first impressions video, so I must admit that I do not have a full understanding of the Lava Genie. However, I stand by my opinions, and I presented them with as much honesty as I could. I hope you can respect them, as much as I respect Lava Music!
GENE has 20-30 times more instrument, much more creative features, and much better and more natural sound, you mentioned none. I like that you now bring this up, because you were very bias. I wouldn’t trust your review on this because you’re an affiliate. How can you still stand by your opinion when you know you’re wrong now?? A very obvious one is you said the fingerboard is plastic and it’s not.

The Lava Genie is amazing, the range of songs and the intuitive prompts to play are fantastic. Worth every penny.
This is such a cool technology!
I can see myself bringing this guitar to gatherings and jam like it’s a campfire.
Thanks for introducing this to us 😊
Yes!! It's also fun for guitarists! The Lava Genie has lots of presets!! Thanks for stopping by Cheng!

Thank you for sharing!
I have both, I prefer the lava genie, but like both. I am now saving up for the stringless guitar with a keyboard for the right hand
Nice Alan! What do you prefer about the Lava Genie? And what do you think the strengths are for each of them?
@ The main thing is the speed you can manage when moving from chord to chord even in bars that have more than one chord in them!
I have both and agree with you on the sound quality but a couple of things I like about the Lava is that it can hold 5 custom patterns with sounds at one time.

Good point. I think the 5 sampler pads open up a lot of opportunity for creative music!!

Thanks for your insight! The Lava Genie indeed has a lot more sounds than LiberLive!
me too
Looks good and easy to follow!
Thank you Shayne 🥳
Cool❤
heard the app doesn't have chinese songs at the moment. unless the china set.
Hi, that's not correct. The app has a lot of Chinese songs. Come to our store to try it yourself

🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Misinformation on almost every aspect.
You’re a LiberLive paid partner, but you’re acting like a moderate reviewer, that’s not cool. FYI, I’m the co-founder of LAVA MUSIC.
