Of all the updates does the Genos 1 have the same type portamento as the GENOS 2? Someone told me that the GENOS 2 has the same portamento as the PSR-A5000, anyone know any info on this I would appreciate it.

Hi.

Quoted from 'DISCRIPTIONS' at the site linked at bottom here:

Portamento
New Portamento Type

-Crossfade added
-Available for SA Voices as well
-Velocity and Time related parameters
-Play Hard - Fast (slow) transition
-Play Soft - Slow (Fast) transition
-Threshold for Fast Playing
-Can set the threshold where you want to cancel the portamento when playing fast (e.g. trill)

But I wanted to know if Yamaha updated the GENOS 1 to this type of portamento, that was my question buddy

Sorry, I did misunderstand your question. My bad

The Genos (1) update history can be read here:
https://europe.yamaha.com/en/support/updates/firm_genos.html

Reason that I am asking is because if that feature gets implemented I can buy the GENOS 1 at a great price and don't have to spend the extra for the GENOS 2

Arranger manufacturers rarely update old models when a new one is available. The only time they do is to fix basic OS issues that may prevent it working as originally intended.
