Genos - General / Re: Extremely Disappointed with Genos
« Last post by alans on Today at 09:51:09 AM »H John
I have to agree with most of what you say,I did find the upgrade a bit frustrating,but with help of the good folk on here I got the job done eventually.
Was it worth it,well yes it is probably advisable to always have the latest O/S installed but I don't know if I'll take advantage of all the new additions,the chord looper looks really useful though.Luckily I didn't have a whole lot of files and settings of great importance,so I'll gradually get it back to my preferences over time.I can though empathise with those who use their Genos for gigs etc.and I think Yamaha could have made it less worrying for those.
The Superior has some nice additional styles and voices and I'll take a look at those over time.

Genos - General / Re: Extremely Disappointed with Genos
« Last post by ugawoga on Today at 09:36:08 AM »Hi
I cannot understand people saying how difficult the upgrade is.
It is not rocket science.
A few simple steps and a little patience and it is done
The instructions are plain and clear reading the pdf file..
I must admit that the instructions for what is in the update are scattered all over the place and would be nice to have had a simple added section all in one about all modifications and what they do and how to access them. Yamaha documentaion a little behind.
With a little patience again you can figure it out.
The chord looper is easy to understand and a few modified screens, but we all may be missing small detail if not highlighted.
The Genos is a fantastic machine. Cubase also.
Agree Yem could be better.
All the :)best

Genos Voices & Revo Drums / Re: Change octave in styles
« Last post by robinez on Today at 09:27:57 AM »...thanks!
If something doesn't work like Robinez encounters,I guess you have to go to Parameter Channel of the style creator and change the note limits so the style part can have access to the disarable octave in all chord changes.
indeed i was expecting that it was something like this, it's works the same way on the korg pa4x and korg kronos.

Genos - General / Re: Extremely Disappointed with Genos

Sorry to hear you are not happy with the Genos keyboard.
Continuing with Don's analogy, it seems to me that . . . it is like having a brand new Mercedes but being disappointed because the Mercedes user manual is not that good . . . or the lack of training material for the Mercedes . . .
However, regardless of the lack of training material or poor quality of user manual, etc. The Mercedes car is still a great car. (this also applies to your favorite car brand).
The same with Genos, the user manuals, the YEM, the website, etc. are not that great . . . however, that does not discount the quality of Genos . . . it is still a great keyboard.
After the Genos V2.0 upgrade a lot of people are frustrated (including myself) with how difficult the upgrade was . . . . loosing some original settings, etc. unfortunately, Yamaha does not make it easy in that respect . . . however, that does not reflect on the quality of the keyboard itself. It does reflect on the Yamaha company, but the Genos is still a great piece of equipment.
Hope that gradually you will be happier with Genos or that you get a good offer and recover most of your initial investment when you sell it. It will sell very quick. !!! That is for sure.
You all have a great night.
thanks

I know they are trying to protect content so they can continue to develop and sell things, but they surely could have made it simpler to use their software.
If there is any way for people to steal the fruit of their efforts though, they WILL.

I now use two Maui 5's the same way.
