Hi John and Jon,

Thank you for listening and watching this number. Pleased you liked it.

I think the Genos 2 has to be tried or heard live to really understand how much it’s improved from the Genos and previous Tyros ranges. My favourite Tyros was the Tyros 3. I had the first Genos for six years and certainly spent a lot of time reading reviews and watching video demonstrations before I took the leap to exchange my Genos to Genos 2. I’ve no regrets otherwise I would have returned it. It has to be played to fully hear the massive sound changes. I have to confess I was always a little disappointed with the first Genos strings and piano voices but Genos 2 has improved dramatically. I also have a KORG PA5X which is totally different arranger keyboard and has fabulous piano and strings.

Perhaps my playing Wheels performance doesn’t do justice to the sounds Genos 2 can produce albeit that I play purely by ear.
