Genos is great machine and sounds amazing but As Yamaha are presumably designing Genos 2 I thought, for fun and feedback, I would add some suggestions/wish list.
StylesMany more styles needed on £4k machine. At present I add & get a much bigger choice by buying £20 USBs on EBay.
Suggest : Chill Out, New Age, Tropical (Inc. Reggae/Calypso/Cuban etc), Celtic (Inc. Irish,Scottish), World (Sub divided into geographical areas/styles).
VoicesExcellent currently but always room for new ones
Suggest : Expand choirs to include backing male/female backing singers (2,3,4 people choices) or crowds, Maybe add sound effects section as many artists add these to their recordings
MultipadsLots of work to be done here and far more pads needed. These could be so much better.
a) Need multi-pads that match each style
b) 6 would be better
c) Should see Multi Pads on main screen like styles and voices
RegistrationsThese can be frustrating and could be improved I think
1) Should be able to view registrations with one button ("simultaneously" pressing buttons should be avoided generally)
2) Viewing registrations should be like Tyros maybe.
3) Saving banks is cumbersome - maybe needs to be Windows style - Press save as etc
ScreenWould increase size that's all
That's my little wish list.
Any thoughts ?
