Hey, I have to rely on the integrity of the users of Korg products to give me their honest opinions, when it's impossible for me to try them....and so far, I trust what they tell me, and I like what I hear posted on SZ...plus, there are also on-line demos.

Or, maybe someone else with a Genesys can substantiate your words. Your move. Ian

But, is'nt buttonpushing a part of the way it's ment to be used? Myself I often push buttons, not only when do the editing and setup, everything depends of what situation needs during the playing. Have to shut down and start the second time to make it work as supposed(?), that don't only cause the power button to get hard times, it affects the entire system as well as you as customer know it should not be like that. Btw, was it a spare on/off switch in the box when opened it? Cheers GJ

No. Gem is no longer making arranger keyboards. To my knowledge, the Genesys S and its variants was the last TOTL arranger they made. It was done around the time of the PA 1x pro. Since you depend on online demos and reviews about an arranger an not your own personal experience and then recommend or not recommend an arranger, I am sure you can do the same for the Genesys. So no politician for you. I guess you like being a lobbyist? You do well at it. [This message has been edited by to the genesys (edited 11-22-2009).]

So they've given up...I was wondering why we didn't hear much about them recently. Didn't they make a really cool Electronic piano...the ProMega? I saw some demos of that product and it seemed to be cutting edge technology, or at the very least, extremely user friendly...plus, it sounded astonishing. Did the Genesys use any of that technology? And, at least the Genesys went out in style, being a fully functioning arranger/workstation, unlike the Audya, which seems to be a work in progress. If you are a bit reticent about posting your stuff on SZ, you can always send it to me via email....I'd like to hear it. Ian the Lobbyist

Conversly, how is Audya a finished product?
Think of it, the upgrades(?) are in single digits...OS1, OS2 OS3...etc.
Most products with OS upgrades are incremental...OS1, OS1.1, OS1.12...etc.
What makes you think it is finished?
Finished means..."brought to the desired final state."
Is the Audya in it's "final state"?
I hope not.
