Never played keyboard in my life but now I want one. Fantastic very talented man.

Cześć Leigh 🙂 - fajnie że prezentujesz nam ten wspaniały aranger g2, dzięki Twoim prezentacjom jestem prawie pewien, że kupuję ten multi, profesjonalny instrument, jestem juz prawie pewny ze chcę go mieć w pokoju, pozdrawiam serdecznie , duzo zdrowia 👍🐣🇵🇱

Polecam gorąco. Ja już się zdecydowałem z początkiem lutego i jestem zachwycony! Instrument na lata. Godziny na oglądaniu filmów, najpierw przed zakupem, teraz po w ramach nauki i inspiracji. Naprawdę jest co ogarniać, a jednocześnie wiele rzeczy jest stosunkowo proste w obsłudze, do osiągnięcia w stosunku np. do instrumentów Korga. Polecam dołączyć dobre monitory studyjne. U mnie sprawdzają się Yamaha HS7. Gram też w stylu “pianistycznym”, więc podłączone już leciwe, ale z cudowną klawiaturą Action Hammer, Stage Piano Korga SP-500 pod Genosa 2 uzupełnia całość. Nie potrafię żyć bez muzyki, a teraz oznacza to również, że bez dnia przy Genosie 2 😉

Hi Leigh. Blown away as usual. I am envious of your key board skills, you make it look so easy and I know it’s not. I am very fortunate to have had one of the first “Genos” keyboards and hence the damage financially was not too great to move up to the new Genos2. I feel a little ashamed that I have only progressed so far using EzPlay music, very primitive I know but I do have hours of fun. I hope to retire soon and have time for lessons. In the mean time I can only dream of achieving some additional skills to make the most out of this great musical equipment. I treated myself to two Bose L1 speakers when I went from my old AR100 to the original Genos so it now sounds good. Oh, if I could only play 10% as good as you. Thanks for all your great videos, keep up the good work. ThanksMike Sheffield.

With my sound system up a bit, those Orchestral Drums just reverberate right through my chest. I hope to figure how to create a style one of these days. Nice demo! Thank you.

Hi Leigh, wow! You make it look so easy, brilliant sounds and your playing is second to none. Cheers!

[@LeighWilbraham]

Thanks Alan.

Hi, awesome video 👍. I have one question. I have had Motif in many years and loved it. Do you think Genos 2 or Montage m will be the best choice for me. I think it’s much easier to create music with Genos due to the Workstation which Montage m I believe don’t have. Tnx

[@LeighWilbraham]

@@Kiamusic75 they are very different instruments. Genos is a live play instrument where montage would need sequencing to get a similar end result. Both super instruments but Genos is so so much easier to use as well.

[@Kiamusic75]

@@LeighWilbraham I bought Montage M7, and love it. The pattern mode is little bit more difficult to work with than motif but I will figure it out 😁

[@Foxybiker72]

Very good Leigh as you were playing you hear the Chariots of fire build up

[@gavinallen5745]

Genius at work on the Genos2. Great sounds, and great content as always 👍👍👍

[@markoconnell804]

2:39 and wow you’re really selling this ability. Well at this point is amazing.

[@patriciayoung6141]

Helli Leigh, it is just mesmerising watching you!!! Just wonderful what you do and know. Yamaha need you to help them build the perfect keyboard!! I Loved what you did here. The sounds were amazing.You should be composing music for the films too.I watch all your videos.I wish you a very happy Eastertime, kind regards. Pat.

[@LeighWilbraham]

Wow, thank you!

[@thegambl3r]

Very informative again Leigh. I have a NP31, Pk9 pedals linked through V console, but this is a cheaper alternative to connect everything up. I made a stand using a Technics KN7000 stand and modified it to take both keyboards.

[@denovusa4382]

Absolutely brilliant 👏

[@ursullavandenbord2322]

Fabulous as always !!! One question : Is there a limit in the number of wav we can put on the Genos ? I have 1400 wav files that represent 2510 Mb. So they can fit in 3073 mb. But is there a limit for the number of wav ? It is called TOC : table of content....Is the limit 1000 ? 2000 4000 ? Because if i want to import my wav packs in Genos, i have to put 2510 mb in 3000 mb space. This is easy. But if there is a table limit , for example 1000, i won't be able to load all of my wav files packs despite being less that 3072 mb.... I know korg Wavestate has 4096 mb of flash, but can only fit in 2000 wav files. Roland fantom 8000 wav in 4096 mb. Thanks a lot !

Simply wonderful! How do you do that?! :D When you are accompanying the main melody with the harmonies with your left hand, reaching for the individual notes that you need with your fingers, not thinking for a single moment about chords, bass and tonality... :D

[@LeighWilbraham]

I’ve played Yamaha keyboards for so so many years I know them inside out and know what the instrument can achieve. The keyboard makes playing such a joy. Something I’ve never had with other keyboards.

@@LeighWilbraham I wrote totally the same precisely yesterday! :D I recently bought an SX900, and I wrote my pal that it's been so long or maybe never that I sit down and play a keyboard just to listen to the sounds and to be captivated by the patches and just play them because they sound gorgeously! :)

[@borisbosnjak4812]

When you add melodic parts like bass to the style, are you playing the notes in the key of C so that the Genos will then transpose it to whatever key you're playing with the left hand when using the style?

[@LeighWilbraham]

@@borisbosnjak4812 yes C major 7 and then it will transpose based on thr NTT/NTR settings

[@robertafaulds88]

Excellent video has per usual what speakers do you have connected to your genos Leigh has I’m not keen on the speakers that come with the keyboard.

[@LeighWilbraham]

Yamaha HS8 and they are perfect for the Genos.

[@robertafaulds88]

@@LeighWilbraham thank you so very much Leigh keep up the excellent work

I want to listen the complete results for this song? I like this.

[@jorisvanham]

I have a request leigh wilbraham i am a big vangelis fan and will always be, so can you play chariots off fire is that possible i think creating that style is a challenge

[@Jodeci501]

The specs on genos is better than the 2 but I love the sounds on this I haven't heard the genos sounds

[@GeorgePayne-wt4nw]

IS THE GENOS 2.BETTER THAN THE.KORG PA5X

[@LeighWilbraham]

In my opinion yes. By miles

[@OrdeBaruMilenial]

genos 2 or korg pa5x ?

[@LeighWilbraham]

For me Genos - but you should look at both and choose what works well for you.

[@damiaoduarte1818]

Boa tarde 👏 👍🏻 👏 👍🏻 👏 👍🏻 Bom 🇧🇷🇧🇷👈

Great video @LeighWilbraham . I appreciate the video, I hope that this advice will work when i buy genos 2 after 2 or 1 years. Currently I am using PSR-E473 and its not going well for me as i am going thru financial problems. I hope that some donates a dollar to me to begin my journey as a youtube creator like you.
