Yamaha addressed a couple of my concerns-drum sounds and the playlist feature. So I am impressed. However, the price is too much for me as a home player who is only thinking of going back to nursing homes. What I have will do the job, but I will be looking at the 970/770 replacement in a couple years to see what features make it from the Genos to those models.

On the Playlist, I think it is just a way to organize your registrations. In other words, you will save your transpositions etc. in the registrations and the Playlist will merely organize them by song. But this is still an improvement over the old system I think.
