This keyboard sounds absolutely amazing. Yamaha has done a wonderful job. Thank you for this video. You do a fantastic job.

[@LeighWilbraham]

Thanks

[@DJCJ999]

These arranger keyboards are amazing!

[@MrKey-nu7ll]

Wow, what a greatful song performance. A lovely Saxophone voice too. It´s amazing and i like it very much. Dear Mr. Key.

[@ManuelHernandez-bg8bl]

My main instrument is the tenor sax so believe me when when I say you made the sax sound fantastic. You made me think of Gato Barbieri playing Europa. Can't wait to try it! Thank you!

[@Apachetipie.]

Bonjour, j'adore écouter votre voix, elle est calme, reposante, vous devriez essayer de faire de l'hypnose...😊Amicalement votre 😊

[@lewchaney2138]

Wow, the tip on your lowest left hand note driving the actual bass note in style playback is a feature I've not realized until now. What a valuable channel yours has been to follow. Thank you so much for all the wonderful tips you share...❤

[@LeighWilbraham]

Thank you Lew - appreciate your very kind comment

[@fender1000100]

Since I heard this GENOS play the game of thrones theme ive been in love with it. Without question the greatest workstation of ALLTIME.

[@alanrobinson5109]

Sounding good Leigh, great sounds.

[@knmyak]

It works pretty well on my SX900 too. thank you for a very nice video.

[@aszandek]

Hi, Than I hope it will be also same on SX700 too. ;-)

Hello Leigh..... This Video is just amazing. Thank you so much. Could you tell me the name of this Song. Beginning ca. 8:45. Best greetings from

Really beautiful! Thanks for sharing Leigh! Greatings from Brazil!

Thank you.

[@france4me117]

This is absolutely brilliant Leigh … You extensive knowledge of the beautiful Yamaha Genos is commendable and serves as a great tuition for us rookies :) I wish you make a series of how to use the chords fingering that’s what makes the song accompaniment special.

[@alanrobinson5109]

Great sound you’ve created Leigh!

[@michaelgreen2283]

Another great video Leigh. I have to agree, this amazing instrument just draws you in to play more. I think the only place that needs a little improvement is the choir section. I've been trying to find a voice sounding a bit like Vana Verouti on Vangelis' 12o'clock track but so far to no avail. Other than that, I tend to play around for hours on end , and 5 years in to my custodianship of this wonder, I'm still finding little surprises. Please keep doing your videos, showcasing what this beauty can do.

Bravissimo interpretazione eccezionale dei brani e complimenti per questa tastiera incredibile con questo sax reale. Posso sapere i titoli dei brani che suoni con il sax? Complimenti grazie

[@briansture4353]

Leigh, I love the way you execute these songs you have a lovely relaxed style. I don't know if you have considered this. It would be great if it is possible for you to create 30-minute downloads that we could purchase from you. I could use this as relaxing background music at dinner parties and other evening occasions with friends. It could become a good little source of income for you. Regards Brian. Ex Brit now living in Perth Australia.

Thank you and love to you and the people of Italy.

[@ZorbaTheDutch]

Great stuff! Thankfully my SX-700 features both the Unplugged Ballad style and the S.Art Saxophone voice just as well. Just one thing missing in the video: the multipad "Autobahn" made me curious ;-)

[@tonyvandoorne6933]

Thanks Leigh!!👍

[@nwr613]

Can you get a bit of "gravel" on any notes with the sax? Thanks...

[@Eastbirds_Lee]

I’m not sure what you mean but I’ve applied filters to my alto sax that adds significant amounts of texture and resonance. Sounds way more dynamic and I guess adds that gravel to it.

[@tamasbacsai1028]

Hello. Would you be so kind to tell me what song did you played from 4:00 in this Video. It's an amazing. Thanks, Tamas

I keep watching Korg PAx5 vs Genos 2 and I can't decide which I am going to get. I am a Korg guy forever, never owned a professional Yamaha product. For the first time this sounds like the instrument I want to play with band and at home. Decisions...... Korg Pax5 or Genos 2, Oh my! Where can I play both in California?

[@michelvondenhoff9673]

Korg in general has better ergonomics as menu structure. Yet this model can be different in this regard. In terms of quality I don't think you can go wrong with either. As for advice in the California area check a YT chanel called Piano Tone.

[@roscomonk]

I agree Leigh, Genos has the best sax in the world. Try George Micheals Careless Whisper, it will blow your undies off.

Hi Leigh great video. Is there anyway you can convert these for the Yamaha psr sx700 and share thanks

@@LeighWilbraham ok how much per month and what styles and sounds do you have for the Yamaha psr sx700 that I will be able to download and install to usb. Also if I join can I access product tutorials for the Yamaha psr sx700 how to create styles modify sounds etc and if I wanted to create a style and sounds could I ask you how to do this and you advise how to do this thanks

[@LeighWilbraham]

@@waynemister75 hi Wayne. We don’t feature the 700 but do for the 900 and Genos. It would be a case of you maybe joining for one month and trying the content. If it works for you then great, if not then you can just cancel.

[@waynemister75]

@@LeighWilbraham so can you create styles and sounds for the sx700 or convert your styles so I can. And I am sure most product videos for the Yamaha psr sx900 will work with the sx700 and if I ask for a style etc this can be created so I can use on my sx700 thanks

[@LeighWilbraham]

@@waynemister75 sure Wayne. The 700 is so close to the 900.

[@kelvinadeline1285]

Hi do you have the desert aventure style with the duduck for sx900?

[@LeighWilbraham]

Hi - No because the voices are not in the SX900 - You need to treat yourself to a Genos 2 to get the sound and style! Thanks for asking though.

[@mesparky9]

Great video, but as I said in a previous comment, why did we spend all that money only to use voices from older keyboards? Why didn't Yamaha just take the legacy Sax's and make them sa2? By The way, at the end were you holding back the years lol, thanks Leigh.

[@mr5string]

I know the Genos 2 is a workstation but how does it compare to the new Montage please?

[@LeighWilbraham]

It’s not a synth

Sorry, I meant sound wise@@LeighWilbraham

what does the live sax section sound like? did they just duplicate it from the original Genos?

[@frankr7239]

There's a different old keyboard they made Yamaha syth lv1 should here the sax in that I don't know why they didn't put it in all the Yamaha keyboards

[@patriciozazzini3182]

is it still holding up 4 example against Pax5? I still think the Genos sounds nicer but is a little behind in tech and memory etc

[@LeighWilbraham]

It’s got the same memory as korg and as far as I’m aware there’s nothing bigger than 3gb

[@robfriedrich2822]

Korg has in general better ways to edit sounds and to create styles from scratch. Yamaha is better supported by additional voice and style content and meanwhile the expansion packs and premium voices are free, the only limit is the space in memory

[@JonBushell]

Bet Baker Street sounds great

[@Guitar6ty]

The Sax is more than good enough on its own no need to embellish with strings.

[@LeighWilbraham]

Thanks for your opinion. I’d be lost without it.
