Yamaha Genos 2 has some AMAZINGLY powerful cinematic drums and here's the first example of me using them to create my own style for the Terminator theme.

Leigh! Me again! I took delivery of my Genos2, and the only thing that I have to say is “WOW!” It is an amazing keyboard! Coming from the Tyros 5 straight into the Genos2 was an easier adjustment than I thought, and every style, every voice I play feels new, and fresh! It kept me playing for 2 hours straight. Everything was easy to use, and find. Thank you again for all the videos and insight you’ve shown with both Genos and Genos2!

What a fantastic style well done Leigh...Looking forward to downloading it when you upload it to your Genos Club (I'm a new member)

This is absolutely brilliant Leigh! I really wish that there is a list of what one can play for must of the beautiful styles ... Imagine if you could simply type in for example "Fly me to the moon" and Genos2 will list all the styles that would be suitable to play that particular title ... That would help lots :)

I’m at the other end of the mini Genos Family Tree as I have owned a PSR-SX700 for over two years now but even this keyboard provides a great deal of flexibility to create music. There is no doubt in my mind though I will at some point in my life buy this Genos-2 as it is as you say so amazing in what it can do and the reverb and voices are so, so good. I would just like to say you are such an amazing musician and I thank you for your wonderful demonstrations they make me so inspired in making my own music. I’m a great string voice person myself as well Leigh and “Wow” these string voices in the Genos-2 are very, very good. Thank you again Leigh for your amazingly uplifting U- Tube Video productions.

Thank you. My whole ethos is you should enjoy making music no matter what instrument. It’s the best way to unwind and express yourself. Thanks for your kind words and glad you enjoy the videos. SX700 is an amazing keyboard and packs a lot of features.

Hello Leigh, WOW what a nice video this is!!! AMAZING the stuff that you can do with this Genos 2. Definitely not chalk a cheese! This is the real deal. I hope I can do this also on a SX900. I don't know,.... Thank you so much Leigh for this nice video.

Very cool. Really. I like most of your Genos videos. It‘s a pity that even when I zoom in on my iPad Pro 12,9“ the writing on the Genos display is not really sharp. So learning from your videos is sometimes a little bit difficult. But nevertheless you are doing a great job !! Thanks a lot and keep going.

Loving the Genos 2 Leigh. Many thanks for all of your hard work in producing these great videos. In relation to the poor strings on the Genos2 , have a look at the "Behind the Scenes" youtube video by the Genos2 development team. One female engineer talks about the strings sampling and says that they have even sampled the "strings rattling" sound. I remember you demonstrating the strings and pointed out a rattling sound. I agree that the strings should be improved.
@LeighWilbraham6 ай бұрын
That’s fine but for movie stuff you want smooth scoring strings not the rattling sound. Still love my G2 to bits and there’s other strings to use.
@danielschroeder37096 ай бұрын
That’s really cool!!! The only thing I would change is the snare drum double tap into a more metallic sound, like striking an anvil or something like that. Super job!!! Once you’ve recorded a song, is there a way to export it as an mp3 file, and not a midi file? Most peoples midi instruments will not sound like these great sounds you’re playing.

Love your work. I've watched you numerous time talk/and goto legacy strings. I for the life of me can't find them on my Genos2. Are they an expansion pack item or is it in there and I'm just an idiot? You'll have to forgive me I'm new to arranger keyboards and especially things like expansion packs. I haven't delved into that world yet as I"m still trying to learn the basics. Thanks for all you do!

Hello Larry. In the voice section keep pressing the arrow in the bottom right hand corner of the screen and the go to the second page and you’ll see a category called legacy. Pop in there and choose strings.

I the Hammond SKX Pros review. I wish I had seen that before I ordered a new Wersi OAX1 last February at £7,000. This and the dealer has been a pain in the ass since it was delivered and started crashing 5 minutes after in September. Dealer service has been woeful. This was one of the reasons I wanted to speak to you. Also I have a Genos 1 which when was updated to V2 never sounded right. I wanted to get your opinion on this as you are an expert on both. I to wanted to midi the Genos with the Wersi and other things. I enclosed my telephone number a couple of days ago. Thanks Leigh.

I like how 'easy' it is to create a style like this. One thing I would comment on, I wanted to go back and relisten to the original theme. I'm going to assume that with the drums you can pan each of the individual drums where you want on the soundstage. The drum part that you added, from the original, it sounds like it should be panned hard right while the basic drums should be panned left. Not 'hard left', but medium left. This isn't a complaint or anything like that, I'm not taking away from what you or the Genos 2 can do, but in listening to the original, I think it would be cool if you could pan that one drum sound. Anyway, great job, Leigh.
@LeighWilbraham6 ай бұрын
You can pan the drums I think the need to be 56 degrees to the right.
