My Genos arrived today. Here is what I know so far.

1. Every single one of my gig styles from previous yamaha keyboards play ok.
2. Some of my styles were replaced with Genos factory styles and sound good.
3. I tried some registrations from other yamaha owners and they also worked ok.
4. The touch screen works just fine and is easy to read and see.
5. The Touch screen menu is very intuitive.
6. I did not buy the speakers and am using good headphones.
7. Many of the onboard styles sound very familiar - same intros and voices etc..
8. I tried onboard styles from PSR3000, T1, T2, T3, T4, and T5. They all played ok.

The fact is, I could have taken the Genos out of the box, inserted my thumb drive with all my gig setups on it and played a gig right on the spot. So, if anyone was concerned about backward compatibility - don't worry about it.

There are some negatives:
1. The sliders and knobs jump in level when changed during live play - not a good
thing.
2. The RH sound is not as well balanced with the styles on the Genos as they were
on previous Yamaha keyboards and will probably need tweaking down the line.

I will post more on this thread tomorrow as I learn more about the Genos.
