Thanks for the info, I've heard quite a few people resonate their fondness of the G-1000.

I sold my Genesys and got the Genesys XP module to hook up to my Technics organ. Brillant combo soundwise. I'm still wresting with getting the organ presets to trigger the XP's presets then I'll be in hog heaven. The sounds in the XP module have been greatly imporoved and I thought they were good before. The brass is out of this world. Take care.

hi Jerry,
Do you find that there are a lot of extra sounds on the Genesys xp than the regular genesys? Also, are the quality of the sounds better on the xp?

I am thinking about getting the Genesys xp. I would agree that the Genesys is one of the easyer keyboards to use in a live setting. Changing from style to style is easy and quick. Also, changing right hand sounds during a song whether in single sound mode or preset mode is intuitive and quick to get to.
In addition to having a lighter set-up (Genesys xp + a light keyboard controller), the Genesys xp from what I have researched has this feature where you can connect a multi pedal unit and this unit has 6 pedals.

So you can assign some of the most used opperations while playing a song to a pedal.
For example, fills, intros, endings, start-stop, vocal harmony on-off and so on. So while playing you don't have to take your hands off of the black and white keys.
