Hi, Yeah, but it’s more like functions in the mixer, and deeper editing. It’s not accessible. But you’re right. The sounds in Genos are great. Especially the drums and folk genre.

What makes me a bit disapointed is that the voice guide function don’t seem to get updates in regards to new functions and that could be possible without much work. So be it, I thought first if I shouldn’t sell my genos at first and buy a tyros, but than i kept going with genos because for me, the sounds were better. But yeah, they could have made so much more with the function. Fun fact, the voice guide got updates, that means, with new Firmware versions, the voice guide could say those, perhaps mainly to let you know where you are. But in Terms of new Features or more accessibility, Nothing goes Forward. Very sad. Sure, I have a lot of outboard gear with wich I can compensate a lot of Things the genos doesn’t offer Access wise but that shouldn’t be the Intention of such a function like voice guide. So it depends on what you want and if the better Sound is worth it for you or not. An example: The Expansion packs area isn’t accessible on the genos. Because I have no expansions, that was no Problem. For another friend, who had a tyros previously, it was bad because he couldn’t use any packs on the genos. Like I said, it is good to have the feature if you have the genos, but you have to know that the expectations shouldn’t be to high. If I had to decide with todays Knowledge, I think I would Maybe buy the tyros I have to say, especially if it is the only Instrument or gear you have, so you can’t get inaccessible functions from somewhere else.

If you want to have fun deeply inside the menus on Genos you’re lost.

The genos has a voice guide and that makes it accessible to a certain Degree. Set: The accessibility of the genos is more Basic than I thought at first. You can select styles and sounds, make simple Recordings and you can select Presets of the voice harmonizer and Vocoder from what I know. And it is not such a big Problem, since you can navigate the touch screen with the voice guide. In Addition, the genos has even knobs for transpose, tempo fills Intros and endings and some keys for accessing some functions, like the accompagnement and such. So, it is simply not true that the genos is inaccessible. That are the Things what I use the voice guide for and yes, it has it’s limitations, but Keep in mind that yamaha has the only one solution for us to navigate the screen and and use the genos to a certain Point, other companys have Nothing. I was a Little bit disapointed, since yamaha could have made more out of this Concept, but I use the Basics and because of the touch screen the voice guide is better than Nothing, since you even know where you are at the Moment.

Dňa 27. 5. 2021 o 18:18 Seth Lowman napísal(a): Nicolas, how accessible is the Genos? I have been considering one for a long time, but the accessibility issue and the prices have been my biggest hurdles. I have used Nord keyboards in a live setting for years. The college I went to had a Nord Stage 2EX, and I found it to be not very menu driven at all. In fact, just about every tweak you’ll ever want to make to your sound is right on the front panel at the touch of a knob or a button, with maybe a few exceptions like transpose. I especially loved it’s electric pianos and organs, as well as some of the synthesizer patches. The pianos were very nice as well, and with a little EQ, you can make them fit your playing situation. However, I’ve never used them in the studio, or hooked up midi cables to them, so I’m not really sure how well they work with a DAW or with QWS. They have the options of standard din ports and midi over USB, so they seem fairly flexible as far as that goes. God bless!

Wonder of any qws user on this list is playing nord keyboards / pianos? Love my nord elektro 3 but it is kind of difficult to operate when you are blind. For example: you need to use a menu function to transpose. However I love the sound of the keyboard and the weight of the nice wata keys. Anyone else in to nord produkts? Vincent.
