I've found over the years that key feel is "maybe" just as important, as sounds, when determining the overall tone of an instrument. Some tones sound better with outboard controllers, and some are paired perfectly with the organic hardware. It's possible that the velocity curve in the Genos is just better suited to your touch, even though you're comfortable playing the MO. Some instruments just sounds better, when they can be played with the artist's expression, and nuance choices.
Sounds like a win/win for you!
