Seems I have to wait for users feedback... I have every weekend gigs, saturday and sunday. If something's happening with this OS, it may become unresponsive to and I "blow up" all the gigs I have...

PS: Could someone who updated it to tel us if Tempo Reset function is included in assignable functions to the buttons?! Tnx

They really don't understand what means Tempo Reset function on other brands, implemented about 10 years ago!

Tempo reset does not mean to reset tempo to initial tempo of style, but to retrigger the first beat of the first measure when you press that button....

***, I don't believe they didn't understood that. I think they have to buy some other brands to understand how that function works ...

LOL...

A more proper name would be Measure reset because Tempo reset is what Yamaha already has. You can easily use SYNC START. Singers who do not know where their first time in the show is to go back to the music school.  ;)

This function is implemented on Tap Tempo/Reset button in Korg, I think from PA50/80, I don't know exactly... I didn't invented it, it already exists on the market!
Sync Start is very hard to use it on a high tempo style, so it's not a solution.
Yes, indeed, is a bad expression of me, because is "Tap Tempo" and "Reset"! So it is "Reset" button. My apologize!

It's not about only the singers, there are songs which have something like 5 or 6 beat in the last measure before fill. It's not only the singer. It's about entertaining, also, if someone came to us to speak with us in realtime playing, we have to reset the style to the first beat to be where it has to be at the moment which singer starts... Also, there are gigs where people came and sing with us, which are not musical prepared, and they don't really know how to keep the beat of style, so we need that Reset function.

But we have to live with that little changes one or two years more, didn't we?!  :-\

Yes I think it is, but it is implemented to play like in the next beat, 1, 2, 4, 8, 16 , 32 ... It splits style measure ... its hard to use it...
Really, its very simple a button to retriger first beat! What is so difficult?! Pfffffff

I just noticed that the User and Reference manuals are available in text file format. I hadn't noticed that before. The manuals are broken up into files for each manual chapter. I wonder if these could be usefully displayed via the Genos text file display (although without any inherent search capability)?

In any event it appears the text file versions reflect the previous D0 manual revisions rather than the current E0 versions.

Yes, because I don't think they had time to reupload the new version of text files. Some couple of hours ago, the link of pdf version gives me d0 version, which BTW, was the version for 1.20 OS version!
You have to wait, and I'm sure they will post new e0 version in text format too. And yes, I think that is purpose of those txt files, to load on Genos, to be able to look for, even the search functionality is unavailable!

So.. The desynchronisation problem of the User Audio Styles (with Audio Phraser) has been corrected to a quite acceptable degree, but not quite fully because the fills and the break don't play in time quite yet.
Also It is still impossible edit another effect on the same channel in Assing Part Setting.
And of course not update in YEM...

I've not tried it, but lots of models can display text files on their screen (via text/lyrics button). Not sure if there's a limit on the file size though.

NO Babette, because almost ALL important problems we complained here was NOT solved... "Good" to here that Voice Guide was updated! Come on Yamaha, it's a joke?!
Yes, they implement those labels and icons on home screen, we are pleased with this new interface. But the BIG important things they have to implement was not implemented.
That's my opinion!

Genos can, I really know it can, but they 1. don't know how to make it, or 2. don't want to implement them ;)  I, again, will choose second version ;)

I tried to use the Text file display on both the Tyros and Genos to display song tabs. It was a dismal failure due to lack of TAB support and font size limitations. And with the inherent screen glare possibilities of the fixed Genos display that screen would be unreadable in a lot of bright light situations.

I'm not the only one, Babette... I'm disapointed because one of my friends, which is Yamaha demonstrator, told me some functions which I want (this Style reset function) will be available in this update as assignable function. He told me other things they are, but I don't see till now. I really need to install it and see with my eyes, but I cannot right now because if they made some changes in what already I have done with my work, I cannot sing tomorrow... The most worst thing is that this OS is not downgradable, you cannot downgrade if there are problems, you have to dig with them till next update, which I really cannot right now.

Yes, metcam, I'm "in generally" happy with my Genos, too. But some of missing functions it keeps me down, I cannot work as it has to be... I'm just sorry they don't give Genos the power it was born with ;)

Hey!
I am most disappointed in the way you handle MIDI files.
When editing, Genos loses the MIDI file and you have to find it again and load again when you are done editing and saving the MIDI file is gone again,
Then you have to find the MIDI file again, and load again, incredibly difficult procedure.
In Tyros, the MIDI file remains, you do not have to look for it every time you have to edit

I have to agree. Midi file handling is better even on PSR-S series. I hoped that this would be fixed.......

Vali,

I have the same information that some changes more are planned, including changes for YEM. If not in June, they are expected to come in November.

Perhaps this was only a pre release for marketing reasons, and more is to come.

However, I am happy with the Genos as it as. Everything more would be a bonus for me. So I am still relaxed. ;)

Yamaha updates mainly fix issues that should not have been available at launch.
They hardly put any new features in (As Korg did with Pa4x).
I guess maybe they don't want to take time to re-compile all Manual if they add new features. Haha

With 1.40, I can't use Foot Pedal to switch On/Off my LEFT VOICE. Please let me know if I have missed something...

After comparing the reference manuals:

 * It seems to be possible with 1.30 (Right 1–3, Left Part On/Off, assignable to pedal and button),
 * but not with 1.40 (Part On/Off, assignable only to button).

So why do they do this?

Yes, metcam, I'm "in generally" happy with my Genos, too. But some of missing functions it keeps me down, I cannot work as it has to be... I'm just sorry they don't give Genos the power it was born with ;)

Ok! Wow, a lot to say

First, I will start by saying that I'm
Not updating my Genos now!
For starters,  it seems that few members are experiencing new features but with the cost of other features being removed ( like the foot pedal switch mentioned)

I need more time and research to see if this update
Is worth the update but most importantly if it doesn't have
A bug or a feature I don't like. REMEMBER!
As it stated here: this is not a Firmware type i can just reverse
So, why to take the chance.

Amazingly! One thing that was mentioned here is the most
Critical thing for me : to be able to reset the MEASURE
Not the tempo.

What I often love doing when I play a song is to download
The Acapella version with only the singer and accompanying
Him with my keyboard.  Often , the singer changes his measure for a slight second.  Since the Keyboard measure the bit like a Robot and not as an actual Band the Measure is
Off. The tempo is still correct but the measure and the timing
Of instruments played is off. So , as mentioned above
I found my self using Stop/sync button all the time
To adjust to the singer. This is ANNOYING!
Having a button that simply reset it is an absolute
Must for me at this point!
It seems that all the other stuff are things
That should have been there from day one
Korg came out with an update that truly added features
And fixed some things around but I'm not sure about
This one.......
