Rumor has it the the Genos will not have a 61 note keyboard and that all will be 76 note. Lloyd
75 keys is a happy medium fopr all...
if you want 61 you'll have to wait for the MOTL
Mini Genos 980
I think you are correct and the trend Yamaha might follow. I prefer the 61 note version arranger, but the Genos-76 is shorter in length than the Tyros 5-76, and perhaps close to the same weight. Features and price will help me decide.
Anyway, in regards to the Genos preset styles. The style categories changed somewhat over the Tyros 5 version, some combined or more emphasis on changing trends. Pop, Rock (use to be combined), RetroPop (new), Oldie (now given own category), Dance (no doubt more attention given here), R&B, Entertainer, Country, Jazz (Swing gone, but obviously combined in other categories), Easy Listening (new), Latin, Ballroom, Movie&Show, Classic&Events (new, but World gone), and Trad&Folk.
