Hey!
Got this message by a friend.


Hello,


Sunny weather, yesterday playing family entertainment (Sthlm) in Swedish housing direction, a lot of people

Absolutely perfect except one (1) thing.

 

To see what's on Geno's display (regmem) at all, I had to put a towel over my head

lean me over the display to create some kind of shadow ...


It was even difficult to see which of the regma buttons (1-10) that lighted = active (= red),

even though my setting led light is set to the highest brightnes (= 3).

 

I had the impression that there would be a problem with Geno's display in SUNLIGHT.

With Tyros there was also a problem with this, but with Genos it's almost impossible to see anything at all,

Much in this also depends on the fact that in Genos the background color (for Regmem) is black and the text in white color.
In Tyros, on the other hand, it is a larger font for text.

My answer to him:
Yes, it is strange that there are no better screens on the GENOS 2018 flagship.
Itīs not everyone who is indoors all the time, sometimes you play outdoors,
and then I want to read on the screen, (I have asked for it before and then it seems that it was OK out in the sun) there is Tyros 5 more flexible even though. that the screen can be tilted.
It seems to be sluggish with the updates, waiting for the software to come up with Tyros 5 level at least, no info about when the next upgrade is coming,
Yamaha should better inform what is going on, and not be so secretive.

Should not have to go back to a Binder with all the lyrics ..
Greetings Pierre

Hi all,

I tested the Genos for a few weeks. The sound was great. But when I played my first open air party - a vintner party - I could not see anything on the screen in sunlight outside. In order to continue working with the Genos, I would have had to change everything to Ipad operation. That was not worth it to me - and so I kept my Tyros 5.
I'm wondering that no more members have noticed this problem. In spain, mexico, california etc are many more open air events with a lot of Sun.

Greetings
Siggi

Many of us don't play outdoor gigs, it's mostly indoors for me out of the sun!

With weather in the UK up and down like a YoYo It is not wise to play outside.

DerekA:
Too true. You are more likely to short circuit in the drizzle.
