Hi Guys :
I really wonder if there is a commercial future for the Genos yet ?
Will people still buy a new Genos whilst the SX900 is available now and ... 50% lower in price ?
Even Tyros4 and Tyros5 owners seem to be very interested in buying an SX900.
You may say I am crazy and confused but I think only Yamaha can answer that question.
I am looking forward to hearing their reaction soon.

Don’t get mixed up with all the hype regarding the new 900
Take a listen to a clarinet played on a Tyros 5 or Genos
Then listen to a clarinet played on a SX900
100 miles apart
Sx900 has some new features, touch screen etc. and some new features for EDM players but the sound department hasn’t changed much, same voices as the S950, few new ones.
Do I need a “Rotary switch” on the dash when I can work the rotary speed from a pedal
And that’s been around for the past 10+ years
Don’t get me wrong, it’s a nice keyboard and I may even buy one.
I played a 900 last week, if your a gigger like me, then the weight and the size may tempt you, but it’s not a Tyros 5 or a Genos - but good enough for a gig or two.
