Extraordinarily expressive and realistic Voices

powerful brass and legendary FM Voice technology from the Yamaha DX7, combining to give you the richest musical experience.
Powerful DSP eect processing for enhancing the sound
From Reverb to Distortion, Rotary Speaker to Compressor, Genos2 boasts unprecedented DSP power. Featuring Steinberg’s
acclaimed REVelation Reverb and eects using the same VCM technology as Yamaha’s professional high-end mixing consoles,
Genos2 has the tools to craft your perfect sound. Not only do the eects sound great, they look great, too—with stunning
graphical user interfaces.
Accompaniment Styles
Genos2 is ready to accompany you with world-class arrangements, regardless of the genre of music you want to perform. With
the revolutionary new Style Dynamics Control you can nely adjust the energy of every Style in real time, ensuring that the
backing perfectly matches your performance. And with the new Ambient Drums, you decide whether you’d prefer a close mic’d
direct sound, a reected ambient room sound or anything in-between. Never before has there been a more powerful personal
backing band.
Versatile real-time controller—Live Control
Instantly shape your sound with the Live Control surface. In addition to the intuitive Live Control knobs and sliders with helpful
conrmation LEDs, various functions can be assigned to the Joystick. Moreover, the Live Control view (Sub Display) allows you to
immediately visualize your adjustments without interrupting the Main Display.
Voice and Style expandability with the Yamaha Expansion Manager
With Yamaha Expansion Manager software on your computer, you can continually expand the onboard content of your Genos2
by merging and installing expansion packs downloaded from the Yamaha website or by creating and installing your own packs.
Supporting WAV, AIFF and even SoundFont and REX formats, the scope of possibilities for new sounds and styles is virtually
unlimited.
Quick and easy setup with Playlist and Registration Memory
The Playlist feature is a quick way to set up Genos2, no matter how large your repertoire is. Organize your Registration Memory
settings into convenient Playlists for instant recall during performance, or import and enjoy Music Finder Records from previous
Yamaha keyboards, such as the Tyros series.
Comprehensive Audio features

is huge. You can even record your performance directly to a high quality audio le ready to easily share. Moreover, you can play
