More Information About Genos 2

800 Musical Styles
Let's face it: arranger keyboards are all about the styles - otherwise, you'd be looking at a synthesiser! Genos 2 is packed full of 800 accompaniment styles, covering a wide variety of popular musical genres. 250 of these are brand new to the Genos series keyboards, and the remaining 550 have been ported from the original Genos but re-voiced to make full use of Genos 2's upgraded sound engine.

Style Dynamic Control
The new Style Dynamic Control feature allows you to raise and lower the "intensity" of the style. Turning a knob allows for reducing the number of tracks and instruments in the backing to give more "space" and variation to the styles. Imagine a band where the tambourine player drops into the background for a particular verse or the guitarist plays a less "busy" rhythm to give the melody more space. All this is possible using the new Style Dynamics Control feature.

New FM Voice Category
Joining the ever-popular AWM2, Ensemble, Super Articulation!, Super Articulation2!, MegaVoice, Sweet!, Cool!, and Live!, voice categories is the new FM Voice generator. FM Synthesis was first brought to market by Yamaha in the 1980s, and the sound of the legendary DX7 keyboard has been featured on countless hit records ever since. FM synthesis is great at creating sounds that are difficult to achieve with other synthesisers. It is especially good at producing bell-like timbres, metallic tones, and the tine tones of electric pianos. Another strength of FM synthesis is punchy bass and synthetic brass sounds. FM Sounds have been used on famous songs by Whitney Houston, Billy Ocean, Europe, Chicago, Elton John, and Genesis, to name a few!

Improved User Interface
Since the launch of Tyros back in 2002, Yamaha premium arranger keyboards have been well-known for being easy to use. To further improve the user experience, the main display screen on GENOS 2 is now angled towards the player, as is the sub-screen located above the real-time knobs and sliders. Each of these knob & sliders are now accompanied by a set of red LEDs to give you an instant visual representation of the control's value. The LEDs reverse their order (from top to bottom) when the sliders are used to control the Organ Flutes. The Mian display screen can also be output to an external monitor using the HDMI output.

REVelation reverb
Reverb adds space and depth to the sound of musical instruments and vocals. Reverb is one of the most powerful effects a producer or mixing engineer can use. Yamaha has included a powerful digital reverb effect known as 'REVelation', which produces a high-quality algorithmic reverb as used by music producers the World over. REVelation reverb started as a plug-in for Steinberg's Cubase recording software, and Yamaha has utilised the technology in Genos 2.

Optional Stand & Speaker System
The Genos 2 is compatible with the sturdy L7B keyboard stand and the GNS-MS01 3-way speaker system. If you own a Genos and upgrade to the Genos 2, your existing speaker system should be compatible with the new model.

CHORD LOOPER
Found a nice set of chords and just want to 'jam' around? Learning a difficult passage and need to practice the right-hand part independently? The chord looper function is for you! The chord looper instantly memorises a set of chords you play in real-time and then endlessly loops them whilst you jam around or practice a melody line over the top. This feature is particularly useful for songwriters and students learning challenging musical passages. Chord looper is now accessible via panel buttons, whereas it was only available via the software menus on previous-generation Genos instruments.

AUDIO & MIDI RECORDING
Instantly record your performance using the onboard song recorders. Audio recording allows you to record in .WAV format directly to a USB memory device for easy sharing with friends or family. You can also overdub extra parts using the audio recording function, although these are not editable once recorded.

MIDI recording allows you to create compositions of up to 16 different instrument tracks. This is a true onboard multitrack recording studio with onboard individual note editing, allowing you to correct mistakes or re-record parts as and when required. When you are happy with your masterpiece, songs recorded using the MIDI recording feature can be converted to audio for simple sharing with other people or publishing to the web.

BLUETOOTH AUDIO STREAMING
The built-in Bluetooth connectivity lets you stream your favourite music tracks through the Genos 2's audio system to either headphones or via the line-out to an external speaker system. Use this to play along to backing tracks or simply for listening pleasure.
