This is by far the most of best tutorial of how to use registrations on the mighty Yamaha Genos! Kudos to you Leigh as your tuition is sooooo super simply to follow indeed.

Thank you once again for yet a brilliant hands down and best ever ambassador of this glorious Yamaha Genos.

Thanks Leigh, for your tutorials. As a beginner, a beginner in the dark, with no knowledge about musuc at 64 years old. No knowledge whatsoever about notes, styles and harmony. The more I lear from you,, the more I know nothing, yet. No lessons, just going and whith my beautifuul instrument. I will thank you from the netherlands for your music support. I realy do. I am looking forward to your next contribution. Is t possible to buy your hands to play?😂😂😂❤
Thank you! I actually have a Yamaha PSR-SX700 and was very confused about registration banks. My keyboard and the Genos are almost identical in this functionality so I have finally managed to save my own "song" with your help.
Another really great, and user friendly learning experience!!! Thank you again Leigh!!! My PSR S975 has almost all of those features, but no touch screen info panel. You make everything sooooo easy to understand!!! Thank you sir!!!
Leigh, Joe King here in Florida. I was one of your students before you set up your latest video class session. At the time we corresponded and I encouraged you to charge a fee for your help. You were reluctant to do it saying it was very hard to get potential students to pony up any money much less a monthly tuition. I’m glad your doing it now. Ive been away from music and Genos but am trying to get going again and likely will become a club member on some level. In this video on registrations you mention at the start that you don’t copy over “Transpose” explaining you will cover the reason later in the video. However you never touched on the reason and since I do Transpose being a singer, I was wondering why. Did I miss something? Thanks Leigh.
Hi Leigh, all is well here. Just got Home from a Thanksgiving dinner with my daughter and find myself stuffed with holiday goodies. Ham, turkey, marshmallow sweet potato’s, cranberry sauce, mashed potato’s, topped off with a generous slab of pumpkin and apple pie, with a side of double chocolate mousse cheesecake and a Guinness beer to complete the trip to a sinful hell! Thanks for remembering me by the way. Right now I’m attempting to refresh myself on the basic operations of Genos. Sadly if you lay off the routine of playing you tend to forget things you thought you’d never forget. Some of the tricks are so basic I’m embarrassed to even tell you I’ve forgotten who's on first. Anyway stay in touch and I will you. I’m going through some of your great videos of late and find the helpful. Joe
Many thanks for a superb tutorial, it was so easy to understand and I loved your guitar demo as well. The whole video was a joy to watch and it made clear a problem that has plagued me since I bought my Genos. I'm looking forward to watching your playlist video next. Kind regards Jack.
Thanks Leigh for another informative video. I do think that the Registration facility is the most powerful tool on the Genos. I set up a bank of registrations for each individual song in much the same way as you have shown in your demonstration, but I set up the bank in the User section and copy across to a USB as back up. I have set up two folders in Registrations - "WORK FOLDER" (for songs I'm working on) and "COMPLETED FOLDER" (copied from "WORK" when I'm happy with the end result) . I also include the "Transpose " function when setting up my registration. I find it gives a smooth transistion when playing. I look forward to your video on the "Playlist" function. Best regards.
Excellent job!! I just asked you for this yesterday, and you already have it posted!! Amazing!! Loved the file management aspect! Now if you could explain the one touch settings, and how you use them and find them useful for ;-) And how you might use in combination with the registrations. Keep up the great work!
🎉Thanks for your AWESOME instructional materials’ I so do enjoy your style of playing’ I have spent over 5 days listening to you and no I am ready to leap’ I have ordered my Genos 2 from SweetWater Sound, in Indy’ I will get it in 2 weeks’ Rick, in Kokomo Indy’❤😂 ,.
Great video Leigh. I'm wondering if there is any way you can see on the screen the contents of the registration sounds by name. For example, if I have Sax in Reg1, Guitar in Reg2, Trumpet in Reg 3, how do I see before I press the registration button, what sound I'm going to get? My apologies if it's obvious. I haven't received my Genos 2 yet.
Great Tutorial 😀 Is there any way for the Genos to automatically change the registrations as you play? The latest Yamaha ELC-02 and even the old Yamaha EL900 Organs have this feature.
I seem to remember reading (probably in a user manual) of deleting and/or moving the registrations within a single bank but I cannot remember how to do it! This was on the T5 but it must be doable on the Genos too, surely? (I have the SX900, btw. I have checked the manual but cannot find it again!)
Is there a way to combine MP3s and registrations in a playlist? In fact can you even create a play list with just MP3s? Thanks for a very helpful channel.
Leigh, is it at all possible to assign two pedals of Boss FS-6 Dual Foot Switch so that one moves up the 1-10 registaration buttons and the other one goes down within one specific song? When I check it in Genos1 I dont see such option to choose from (in the Assignable - Registration) . There are Registaration+ and Registration- options to choose but these refer to going up and down between specific songs I guess, like the physical buttons on the panel. Sorry I can verify this as I see to struggle with proper functioning of the pedal that I have for now.
Hi Leigh - Is there a way to save a playlist song style to Registration memory. I know that we must always use the USB for the Yamaha playlist that is for Genos. But if there are 1 or 2 song styles I want from the oldies can we save this into Registration memory?? knowing the USB still has to be inserted ??
joined the patreon as a platinum :) Really good stuff, Thank you. Do you have a video on how to bring over or fix registrations from the PSR Tutorials Site? (I keep getting substituted in the Meringue style) - am I missing a step? (Genos User / MacVern
Thanks a lot for this video. I am interested in how to make playlists. Is it necessary to make a registrations before that? I can't wait for the next video.
Thanks Leigh - I am wondering though why you don't have 'transpose' tick in a registraton save. You mention you will explain later but perhaps I missed it. My question is why? Thanks
Just came on board with your video on using registrations. Just one thing missing and maybe its because i do not understand. When you complete your first registration how do you clear the lights on the regustration just completed? And, the other question i have is when using the OTS buttons, why is the the left part always off? I can manually turn it on, but it goes off when changing to another setting.
Please prepare a tutorial for the Genos2 that shows how to take a pdf of a lead sheet with chord symbols and lyrics, covert it to a midi file, and get that midi file as a song on to the Genos2 that displays the sheet music with chords and can be played on the Genos2. I realize that this may require software to covert the pdf to midi and would appreciate learning the proper software for that purpose. Yamaha has done this for a single song (Red River Valley) on the Genos2, but does not provide in the manuals any help for how this is done.
Was just watching this great video again! I always learn something each time! Question. Do you offer drum loops that are easily used in Multipads? I love using mutual pads for quick access to a drum loop, but what comes with GENOS is a very small choice.. Keep up the great work Leigh !!
Hello everyone, hello Mr. Leigh. I want to ask for help cauze i got a problem with my Genos. I got it in 2019 and a year ago for first time i had a problem with the keyboard. Like in your video i have put my fave sounds on the registration buttons and when playing live sometimes somehow the sound of the keys i play blocks and stays like it has reverb max and delay max and doesn't fade (the sound stays like someone holds it) and i can't play other keys cauze it becomes mess. At that moment i can't change sound cauze the sound become stronger. I discussed with the Store where I've buyed the Genos from and they say that I'm the only one with this problem and they can't fix it cauze they don't know how. I discussed with electricians and musicians and they say that it can be the Electricity problem in the Restaurants i play. Cauze i don't have this problem at home , only when play outside. I'm ashamed cauze i don't find other solution so i must buy one other tiny keyboard for right hand only.. that's tragi/comedy that i have the best keyboard and need to buy other to be sure at stage that it won't happen. Maybe some regulator for electricity will help to me?
Very clear video, I had not got my head around Registrations but this is helpful. I was afraid I would delete items already on Genos but this makes it easier to understand. I have a few questions popping into my mind. You chose Voice 1, I think for each highlighted. Other voices 2 & 3 were there but I think you had not highlighted them, also the Left Voice, so my question there is, will they save also when they are not highlighted and is it a case that if you want to add those into one of your registrations you do that if you wish to have two instruments playing at same time? Also I don't seem to have PopBallad 6-8, am I missing a download where that is included or was it an extra purchase?
Hi. Everything is saved when you save a registration. Picture it like a photo of your keyboard. The style is available as a download from Yamaha Genos page - look for Yamaha downloads and it’s in the Sx900 styles for Genos. Hope I’ve been able to help.
Leigh, you refer to Transpose and that you will come back to it later in the video. I have watched it a few times but cannot find why you do not save transpose
Hello Leigh, Very interesting tutorial. I do not yet own a Genos but have been exploring Genos training videos on RUclips. Watching the videos, even from a single author, reminds me of entering an ongoing party. One group of persons is discussing, say, “Registration memory” and another “Direct access”. I may understand a given conversation (e.g. a RUclips video) but without a larger picture of how the pieces work together (dare we call it Genos “architecture”?) I will likely leave the party more puzzled than ever. What’s a good place to join the Genos party? Should I download the owner’s manual, read it thoroughly, then go through your series of videos? Or should I buy a Genos, and expect to hit my head against the wall, as existing tutorial documentation may not offer me a step-by-step, coherent, guide to how to use the hardware? Or maybe find a Genos "teacher" thar offers online lessons to get started? Once my Genos foundation is in place, I'm certain the Genos RUclips videos will become more valuable to me. Bill
@@LeighWilbraham Hello Leigh, Thank you for the answer. Many of our students use you video's for more knowledge about the Genos. Additional question: is it Genos USB-out and PC USB-in with a normal USB cord?
Hi again, will you demo a multi midi recording and how to transfer correctly to Logic Pro so that it can then be edited again? I know that its possible but I'm missing something. if its a big ask I understand, regards. Aussie Bill
@@stevelewis4183 because unless you have a memory like the wife you won’t remember where the transpose is and if you choose to play something different you’ll end up pushing the registration button and bang. Transpose appears where it isn’t needed.

Would the intros come in with the first button or does it have its own?
You can save the intro with the first registration
What about if you want to delet these sound that you keep it in regesteration so it be empty again
Just create your new registration and overwrite the existing.
Are they putting out an 88 weighted key version of this keyboard?
I’d guess not as it’s 5 years old. The Genos 2 - who knows - Yamaha are good at keeping their Products a secret until launch.
