Demos are full of smoke and mirrors, and some of my favorite products have had dreadful demos. You gotta touch 'em before you can make such a bold comment.

here is my List

I have Owned them all

1. Genos
2 T5
3 T4
4 G70
5 S970


Now the G70 could be right up at the top for it time it was hand down the best

but for sound weight and size Genos wins by far

BK9 I was not a fan of at all

IF THEY CAN FIX THE SONG MODE Genos will be perfact

That said dave some on the list Fran hasn't touched either ....and after all is said and done what's the difference when you personally have to make any keyboard YOUR OWN to sound they way you like...and why are we always doing the crazy which is best routines year after year..just sayin'?....it's getting kind of old isn't it...
just buy play whatever you like no body cares but the player himself.
Whew!!! now I need a smoothie.. coffee

sound seems thin too me dual window too small multi windows to get to edit

it just felt down graded too me i felt the piano sounds just too thin

it was not for me .

G70 much better in my oppinion

but many really like it

that is why there is 31 flavors of Ice Cream

I played Genos for several hours. Wouldn't trade it even for my PA4X. Roland seems to be mostly history these days as far as totl. Just my opinion, as is everyone else's list.
