i had a Roland G70 from 2005 and it broke a month ago, i needed to get enough money to buy a new keyboard and this was out of my league. A few days ago my parents said to me, son you get a GENOS 2 from us, and i could not be happier. So tommorow after 19 years i finally get a new keyboard and in my eyes the best there is. My parents are the best there are

I own three Yamaha keyboards… not only do they provide realistic sounds, Yamaha also taps into the power of emotional sounds. This keyboard is a true game changer in synth technology.

No instruments does sound so good wihout a great player at the chair.Greetings to you for a tremendous performance at G2 🙂👍

What an epic presentation of this style. Goosebumps all the time. What a fantastic musician you are.

This is more like it, Leigh. Absolutely beautiful, epic sounds. This is what the Genos should be known for, not the tired old-skool styles. Genos can do amazing things, but in the end that's up to the player. It's all inside the arranger, waiting to happen.

incredible,unbelievable,this the best demo of emotional sound ever

I watch hundreds of these kinds of videos and you've got some of the most interesting improvised music going on here. Makes me want to go buy this.

I’m sure conquest of the paradise would sound great with that score!

Genos was in a class of its own and Yamaha knocked it out of the park with Genos 2. Brilliant sounds accentuated by the wonderful playing. 👍🏼

It takes you out of this world Leigh. Brilliant once again.

Extraordinary - the musicianship demonstrated by Leigh and, somehow, by the machine. This is a very carefully crafted instrument that, in the right hands, as we see here, soars to incomparable, new heights. Thank you for another wonderful video, Leigh. You and the Genos2 sound absolutely magnificent.

Truly amazing sounds, thanks so much Leigh for sharing.

Beautiful presentation!! You are a true master of your craft!

Your playing is superb! 90% of the emotion and enjoyment. Yeah, the sounds are great, too! :)

Love it how you keep the playing very simple and enjoyable ❤

Wow! Desert Adventure! So cool. Thanks for showing us - would love to hear what the Gladiator theme sounds like on this!

Your reviews and presentation are some of the best I've watched. I really like the way you play the keyboard, almost like stroking the keys.

I could listen to that all day. Nice style.

Fantastic skills and beautiful sounds Leigh

Wow. Just wow!!!!! Absolutely beyond incredible, such skill! ❤❤❤

Holy cow.... this sounds amazing. And your playing did it full justice!

WOW !!!!! That was the most beautiful improv I've ever heard. That, to be quite frank, was a "work of art." Just unreal. WOW again !!!!! Ricn

Beautiful Skills ! ! ! Amazing Instrument ! ! !

Wow, you play beautifully, this keyboard sounds amazing

I don’t know about the keyboard but you definitely play very well. You have an avid sense of music.

I wish Yamaha would update their PSR SX 700 and 900 with some of these beautiful tones and some new features in a lightweight body for keyboard players who can't afford the Genos. But, what a lovely playing, sir🙏🏼

That sounds truly truly epic.....I could spend weeks on this style alone to be fair. I see youve mastered the stop button now instead of the chord looper lol. This would sound good for The Phantom Of The Opera too. Amazing playing as aleays on my dream arranger 😊 fabulous presentation, so talented.

For as much as it costs, Yamaha should incorporate all the features from the Montage into this so you can use it as a synthesizer AND arranger with no compromises. They should also make an 88-key weighted version.

What an evolution of the genos... amazing!

Wow 🤩 Wonderful sounds ❤

Such incredible cinema score. I can see it already.

Thank you so much Leigh this is just hauntingly beautiful,It is wonderful how you bring out the very best of these keyboards.The music you compose yourself is so lovely,have a good weekend.Pat. Pat.

This instrument is born for people like you, Sir!

I really enjoy this demonstration. I would spend hour with this sound.

The Genos has evolved into something truly amazing ( the original was great, but this is something else ). I have to stay with my Genos 1 as I just can't afford one of these......... maybe one day I'll get lucky in the meantime can just dream of having one. Keep up the great videos Leigh.

Fantastic. Love videos like this.

OMG I'm addict to your channel,your vids of the Genos 2 are so impressive and you play so well... I'm trying to resist not to buy this keyboard but I think you killed me this time! sheers from south of France

definitely a goal!Nice work!thx

Great performance Leigh. It reminded me of a Hans Zimmer soundtrack, it was that good.

Stupendous style on Genos2 Leigh ❤

Demo well done!!

I’m torn between something like the Montage M7 and Genos 2. When I hear epic things like this though, I’m like, what am I even dawdling for?! Something like Genos 2 has all bases covered, and can be used to control a desktop module or iPad. Stunning demo, nice one!

This is freaking amazing brother! God bless u

Beautiful 👍 like the memory of returning to Skellige ✨

After a very long time I'm back. You may still know me... the key has fantastic possibilities, shown very nicely in this video :) Looking forward, Thilo

OMG!!! I'm speechless!!! Two weeks ago I bought the Yamaha Montage M8X which it quite remarkable, but a little overwhelming, as it is so complicated. After watching this video I may consider taking it back and getting the Genos 2. You've succeeded in blowing my mind away - now go get your laundry done! 😄

Omg. Love the quick recording you did at the end. I love making up songs like that too. Choirs,strings. Cinematic type music is my cup of tea. Only just subscribed to your channel and going through your videos and finally found someone who really shows the keyboard. (Which I want by the way lol) but will be a long time yet😢. Keep up the good work mr Wilbraham 👏 👍 and look forward to more sound examples. Just gonna sit here now and drool with envy that you have one lol.

Genos at the fingertips of a Genius ! Amazing.

Great your inspiring reviews

Fantastic well done sir

woow ...great playing ...GOD BLESS YOU

I love the sound of that score around 8:50

WOW! That is style is epic ... One thing I noticed, Yamaha don't seem to label the FreePlay Styles on the on the owner manual which is rather annoying if not bizarre! This is why I bought this wonderful and YES, the best I my opinion professional arranger-workstation marvel :) YAMAHA you rule and for the obvious reasons, experience, wisdom and above, use of expertise in your arsenal ... Well super done my Leigh as always

Blimey!!!.....it makes my Fantom 6 sound like a Stylophone!!! 😍

That hackbrett sounds ridiculous. Ridiculously good!

All well and good … however, it’s you that makes it sing!

Superschöne Präsentation.ich glaube,ich brauche den genos2 .Den mit meiner louvre einbinden wäre der hammer!!!!

It's wonderful 👍🏿

Wonderful and more. Thanks!

Hi Leigh! I think what you have is a Genos 3...😆😆😆 It amazing how you extract the essence of this instrument. I barely scratch the surface of my Genos 1...Still going thru the sound and style...😅

One word - impressive!

Fantastic!

Must say sounds Brilliant.

Very nice

Like listening to a soundtrack of an epic movie.

Lovely. Reminds me of tangerine dream theme from the film legend a bit. Unicorn scene.

WOW, WOW, WOW speechless fantastic.

Hi Leigh Once again many thanks. I always enjoy your viseo’s, but this one is your Best so far. In fact it the best of all the video’s I’ve watched. However - it would be nice if you included a list of the songs you play. I just don’t recognise some of them, as I have neglected a lot of the modern stuff that Yamaha are now including in the keyboards. Bill

Amazing sound Hans Zimmer is greating

Wonderful !

Super interpretare!👍👍👍

those pads are incredible good

Wow legendary❤

Wow Leigh! that desert adventures sounds incredible! and what a beautiful tune....improvisation??

Was skeptical after bashing a Genos 1 in a store last Month as I got bored, but I have to admit that is impressive. $6000 here plus a pedal and a decent stand. Given me lots to think about though.

BRILLIANT!!!

OMG. Wow. Thx!

I wonder if Yamaha employed John Williams to create that style. It’s absolutely awesome.

It’s like a Montage M-stripped of the synth focus. Interesting. Great playing!

Very nice performance :-) After you have reviewed the Ketron Event and talked positive about it - what is now your opinion comparing these two keyboards Genos 2 and Ketron Event?

Hi Ley, I watched most of videos and it is the first I heard you to be so emotional at ea😅ch video made on a single instrument ! What is going on? I have to admit as a quick conclusion that so many negative critics of the Genos 2 are not justified at all and until you listen to the device capabilities and OMG! I love your reactions, you are funny. JUST CARRY ON! I have a Tyros 2 and was looking at the PA5x by my mind is switching…convince me more !!! Don’t forget to drink, eat and sleep! Best and keep us enjoying the Genos 2 Journey..

Your last couple videos on the genos two are awesome! What a machine! Keep up the great work! Here’s the big question, I have a genos one, can I get all these cool, sounds and styles on the genos one

Hi, After just listen for a couple Of minutes it sounds like a leading motive in a big production film. Or it feels more like the final scene in a big production film. So beautifully done. The sound is just awesome and amazing in every way. Creds to you that you have come up with this lovely melody. Keep the good work! 👊🎹 With best & kind regards from Sweden, Rickard (A guy that still is new to learning to play the piano after just two years.) 😉

Very epic ❤ Yamaha montage have this sounds ?

My DGX-650 is a scaled down version of this. It's surprisingly capable for the money! No, it can't sound like THIS, but it can sound pretty darn good if you push it.

Hi Leigh, Have you had to change any settings on the EQ or compressor or is it as out of the box. l use your golden EQ settings for he current Genos as it improves the sound, just wondered if this one is the same?

Leigh I was waiting for an hour new video. Only 17 min 😅 Genos 2haters gonna hate 😊

Did you accidentally leave transpose engaged? I was trying to play along but although you were apparently playing in Cm, we're hearing Eb! Nice demo.

Great videos, hat off. I cannot find the genos club site you referred to, can you put it in the comments?

hi Leih, can you please do a demonstration of any oriental\Arabic styles, and sounds from this keyboard I have been searching all over KZfaq and have yet to find one

Thats it. Im getting one.

Does it exist any possibility to play this DesertAdventure style with any other Yamaha device or any midi device with a specific software ?

Arranger keyboards are underrated

Hallo Leigh, what's your opinion about this new Genos2? Are there many differences with previous model 1?

How well do you need to play to work this? Would this be ok for a solo lounge act? I am not good at playing and singing at the same time. Could this would for me?

Oh wow!!! 😮

Yeah I have a brand new yamaha mox f 8 and it's sounds are very similar. However it doesn't have styles I do like the production setup in the mox f 8. It's all from scratch no presets

I AM IN LOVE…AND THIS TIME IS FOR REAAAAAL………❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️✨🤟

What a great style!! I wonder where to download this one. I can't find it.

Bonjour, comment ce fait il que sur mon genos je n'ai pas ce style et que je n'ai pas les petites leds au niveau des curseurs et potentiomètres ? Amicalement votre 😊 P.S:J'ai compris vous êtes sur le genos 2,moi je n'ai que le genos tout court .
