Im, NOT EXTREMELY pleased, with the Genos, now iv had time to evaluate it.
how could i be, with all the faults , and the possibly permanent O.S.Navigation system
thats never gonna change ?
For Me the Tyros 5 Is a hard act to follow,
its extremely Fast, in a dual side by side race with the Genos.
you get things done a lot faster on the T5, which is crucial in a live setup.
and if one day,i had to make a Hard Choice ,between the Genos or the tyros 5
in a Professional environment, the T5 Would be way more efficient .
To me ,the claims from others that the Genos sounds Better ,
is not something that i hear myself, with my eyes shut.
its Extremely hard to tell the difference, especially if i posted
a song , and claimed it was created on the Genos, when in fact
it was created on the Tyros 5.
Who would really know the difference ?
having said all that, i think for Yamaha to break the mould of the original tyros series.
and leave it behind,is a gigantic step forward, and i do commend them for that.
I follow most of your comments on Genos. I see you have a pretty insight into Genos, you study and explore quite well.
However, I do not agree with your opinion when compared to Tyros 5 in terms of efficiency.
The technical issues, the shortcomings of Genos' current operating system, are unquestionable, and Yamaha is best to listen and improve it.
But ultimately, the purpose of Genos and Tyros is to perform, and I believe Genos delivers better quality and sound performance than Tyros 5.
The problem of installing, tweaking, customizing, modifying, and personalizing the data is that most people will do it before the show, one way or another will be done. before starting showtime.
As soon as the show started, there was no one to care about it lacking any features or it was not perfect ... so it did not affect the efficiency. when you stand on stage.
I am a musician and also a music producer and I also produce expansion pack, music style in my country.
I am also very unhappy about the current operating system of Genos. Specifically:
- Drums Edit does not work with extension packages
- Stepedit in Style Creator missing buttons: Jump to the top, change the value of the data, I see the use of spinning wheel more time.
- Or Style Creator does not show bar count ...
However, those shortcomings of Genos do not mean I can not finish my job. It only made me feel uncomfortable when compared to Tyros 5.
I think you should not have a radical look at Genos, it's out after the Tyros 5 for 4 years, it's better, it's better on Sound, on style .... but it's the first TOTL tree to use. Touch screen with a new operating system completely compared to before, which of course it can not perfect perfect right, yamaha need time for it. And it is us (those using Genos) that will help Yamaha improve it - if they're really listening.
Sorry for my bad english, I have to use google translator to read and write this comment.
