The big question is how many of the common arranger players use the keyboard like in this demo mainly playing over voices and audiotracks?
I miss some real "Autocomp way of use" like hit a style, play a song. Also I notice that in the demoes posted the styles is more "songrelated" than flexible allround.
Quoted text from linked video:
"....... In particular, those looking to compose and record music will find Genos an absolute dream with the ability to quickly create ideas demos lightning fast and industry-leading sound quality."

Myself, I think Genos look and sound good. But as I'm not any good left hand pianoplayer, maybe a "little brother" where all that "fancy studio stuff" ripped off and priced to compete PA4x and SD9 would hit a wider market?
I'm not sure the price gap up aprox £1000 or even more are worth it for the common arrangerplayer?

2. No not really, those strum guitars are yamaha’s high end arps from the motif/montage.. they are so nice... however.. the montage has 10k of them, the Genos only 216

I heard that Michel Voncken is not working for Yamaha anymore :(:(:(
I looked at the German presentation schedule and he was nowhere to be found.
There are some others that are good as well and of course Baartmans.
We'll see ...

I wonder if the vocals were just the lead vocal stem? And the entire backing was Genos. Coldplay... Stevie Wonder... Taylor Swift... and others were most likely used to show how "real" the styles and sounds are in the Genos.

They need to get singer demos using the internal mic pre. And yes, a demo while we can see the hands working the magic.

Where's Bert's demo?!?

It's possible I'm wrong, but is not Michel Vonken Dutch?
Perhaps there are dates to find for Yamaha / Genos demos in the Netherlands to see if M.V. is listed there?
