That website ain't been updated for like two decades...

I wonder if he's still gigging.

Oh well. Maybe the Genos hype will bring him out (as it did to me..) I haven't been around either. Been concentrating on work and other hobbies (like flying and other crazy stuff). I even sold my T5 due to just getting bored with performing.

We'll see what's about to come with the Genos!

Scott is fine. Maybe he'll check in here soon.

That's too bad, since you were one of my favorite (and definitely most entertaining) performers. Hope the Genos puts you back in the game.

New file formats...

For both song and styles...

The new 16 track song player/recorder will support both midi as well as audio tracks
You can even bounce a midi track to audio (and keep the midi track in the format if you want to step back)
However the midi track will not play anymore, it will be semi/hidden
You can also overdub audio tracks..

Also there will be a new sequencer format for the pattern sequencer inherited from the Motif
Atough, also this new pattern sequencer will support audio loops
You can directly record the pattern sequencer into the normal song recorder..
But also copy to style tracks

There is also a new style format supporting both midi as well as audio..
but the arranger also plays the old styles..
The new style player is much more dynamic
Reacting to the player..

Also there will be a Chord track, and a chord loop...
The chord track plays overall and couples arranger parts to the sequencer
So your arranger follows the sequencer
A chord loop is coupled to a variation...


Dont ask me where i got this info...
But it could be true witouth a doubt...
Also the touchscreen adds a huge amount of direct controll options for styles...
Much like we have seen Ketron do


And last but not least, something i guessed right before..
The 4 kryboard parts will comsist out of 4 awm2 parts (and each part is 8 elements)
Combined with up to 3 split points
So the ensemble voices will just be 1 part
As well as the 4 awm part piano from the montage

Different from the montage, each sound will have 1 effect (montage =2)
But the 4 keyboard parts will have 4 additional effects which can be assigned to a single up to 4 parts
Drum parts will have 8 effects.. but only 2 midi drum tracks can be played live .. at the same time
Drums support round robbin..


I am not going to reveal my source, but i got a mail from him
Two times i got info from him before
Once he was right
And the other time only part of it was right..


Also the rumored ipad integration got confirmed...

etc.

Wish I understood half of that, but if it's true, then at least there is something NEW up ahead.

Hopefully Android pad integration too for us that would not touch Apple products.

Entertaining ,but is it real or just a fake?

I'm hearing that many regular arranger players are disappointed & very confused that this new Genos will be TO COMPLICATED and TOO DIFFICULT with a hard learning curve to understand for the average home player to grasp and that many features will never be utilized,..also that there isn't a 88,or 61 version plus the upwards of 5k price? will be interesting to see & hear first videos of someone actually playing Genos like Martin, Barrtmans, Voncken, etc,...




PS I wonder who will be the first here on SZ to own a Genos I know it won't be me?

No 61 key version? The one time I wanted to get back with Yamaha and no 61! Oh well...

No one can be sure hang in there they just may have a 61 key version. Disclaimer I have no inside information.
