Hi all, just to straiten some thing out. I am a Genesys owner, and I reside is Europe.
Now about the the bag I have one which was given to me by the company for free, because I have ordered it before August, so bags you can find.
Secondly I am not interested any more to talk about it in this forum , no offence to anyone but all I have heard here is is Tyros,PA80 and a bit KN keyboards.
I am a pro and I work 7 days a week and I know what I am talking about. the Genesys is an ALL ROUNDER for people like me who works in all kind of enviorment. IMO Genesys is the best keyboard for live giging. weather you play styles or play mp3 or use midi files or want a harmoniser rich with many sounds and I mean goooood sounds.the touch when you play the genesys is fantastic so i can't see any keyboard getting near it. But unfortunatley Gem is not a very renound company in the us so that is why it is not so popular, but let me tell you this, the guys at general music really look after thier clients , to give you an example I send an email at 8.30 am and by 10.30am I had a reply. this thing about how heavy it is I think it is way tooooo much exagerated, it is heavy, but I manged to carry it everywere.
Let me give you some advice, go and listen to one cause it's a keyboard for all tastes, don't be pushed away because it's not so popular I know that Gem will get in the states cause they have a state of the art keyboard. any questions you have I will happy to reply, I am a very experience user and a technician on Gem keyboards.One more thing the price in europe is about 2600 Euro
and remember you have a hard disk,vocaliser, output for Karaoke, input for a mic,CD WRR and you can burn your work on the hard disk. at no extra cost.
