Main Features
Main Features
Extraordinarily expressive and realistic Voices
The Genos name is synonymous with formidable Voice quality. Genos2 stays true to this ethos with beautiful new pianos,
powerful brass and legendary FM Voice technology from the Yamaha DX7, combining to give you the richest musical experience.
Powerful DSP eect processing for enhancing the sound
From Reverb to Distortion, Rotary Speaker to Compressor, Genos2 boasts unprecedented DSP power. Featuring Steinberg’s
acclaimed REVelation Reverb and eects using the same VCM technology as Yamaha’s professional high-end mixing consoles,
Genos2 has the tools to craft your perfect sound. Not only do the eects sound great, they look great, too—with stunning
graphical user interfaces.
Accompaniment Styles
Genos2 is ready to accompany you with world-class arrangements, regardless of the genre of music you want to perform. With
the revolutionary new Style Dynamics Control you can nely adjust the energy of every Style in real time, ensuring that the
backing perfectly matches your performance. And with the new Ambient Drums, you decide whether you’d prefer a close micd
direct sound, a reected ambient room sound or anything in-between. Never before has there been a more powerful personal
backing band.
Versatile real-time controller—Live Control
Instantly shape your sound with the Live Control surface. In addition to the intuitive Live Control knobs and sliders with helpful
conrmation LEDs, various functions can be assigned to the Joystick. Moreover, the Live Control view (Sub Display) allows you to
immediately visualize your adjustments without interrupting the Main Display.
Voice and Style expandability with the Yamaha Expansion Manager
With Yamaha Expansion Manager software on your computer, you can continually expand the onboard content of your Genos2
by merging and installing expansion packs downloaded from the Yamaha website or by creating and installing your own packs.
Supporting WAV, AIFF and even SoundFont and REX formats, the scope of possibilities for new sounds and styles is virtually
unlimited.
Quick and easy setup with Playlist and Registration Memory
The Playlist feature is a quick way to set up Genos2, no matter how large your repertoire is. Organize your Registration Memory
settings into convenient Playlists for instant recall during performance, or import and enjoy Music Finder Records from previous
Yamaha keyboards, such as the Tyros series.
Comprehensive Audio features
Use the Dual Player to crossfade between two audio les, or assign your own audio data to the Multi Pads—the creative potential
is huge. You can even record your performance directly to a high quality audio le ready to easily share. Moreover, you can play
music from a smart device connected wirelessly via Bluetooth or record audio via USB cable to the Recn’Share app on your smart
device.

Major Functions
This section briey explains the main functions of Genos2, to help you better understand the overall capabilities of the
instrument.
Styles—Rhythm and Auto Accompaniment—
Genos2 features a variety of accompaniment and rhythmic backing patterns (called “Styles”) in a variety of dierent musical
genres including pop, jazz, and many others. Styles feature sophisticated Auto Accompaniment patterns, letting you produce
automatic accompaniment playback simply by playing chords with your left hand. This lets you automatically recreate the sound
of a full band or orchestra—even if youre playing by yourself.
VoicesThe individual sounds of Genos2—
Genos2 features a wide variety of exceptionally realistic instrumental Voices, including piano, guitar, strings, brass, wind
instruments and more. The Voices can be played manually on the keyboard, and they are also used by the Styles, MIDI Songs, and
Multi Pads.
Keyboard Parts
There are four keyboard parts for your manual performance: LEFT, RIGHT 1, 2 and 3. Each part has one Voice. You can
combine these parts by using the PART ON/OFF buttons to create luscious instrument textures and convenient performance
combinations. You can change the keyboard range of the Parts by changing the Split Point.
Multi Pads—Adding musical phrases to your performance
The Multi Pads can be used to play a number of short pre-recorded rhythmic and melodic sequences that can be used to add
impact and variety to your keyboard performances. Multi Pads are grouped in Banks of four phrases each. Genos2 features a
variety of Multi Pad Banks in a variety of dierent musical genres. Moreover, the Audio Link Multi Pad function allows you to
create unique, new pad content with your own audio (WAV) data for playing back during your performance.
SongsPlaying back MIDI/audio les—
For Genos2, the term “Song” refers to MIDI or audio data, such as preset songs, commercially available les, etc. Not only can you
play back a Song and listen to it, but you can also play the keyboard along with Song playback.
Song playback features two modes: Dual Player mode and Song List mode.
Dual Player: Plays back two Audio Songs (or one Audio Song and one MIDI Song) simultaneously and makes a smooth
transition between the two.
Song List: Plays back Songs continuously according to a previously created Song List.
Mic Eects—Adding harmony vocals and synth vocoder eects to your singing—
By connecting a microphone to the MIC [INPUT] jack (either XLR or standard 1/4" phone plug connectors), you can enjoy singing
along with your keyboard performance or with Song playback. The instrument outputs your vocals through the connected
speaker system.
Moreover, you can automatically apply various Vocal Harmony eects to your voice as you sing, or you can use the Synth Vocoder
feature to graft the unique characteristics of your voice onto synthesizer and other sounds.

Registration Memory—Saving and recalling custom panel setups—
The Registration Memory function allows you to save (or “register”) virtually all panel settings to a Registration Memory
button, and then instantly recall your custom panel settings by simply pressing a single button. The registered settings for ten
Registration Memory buttons are saved as a single Registration Bank (le).
Playlist—Managing large amounts of songs and settings
The Playlist function makes it easy to manage and call up your songs and the related settings, no matter how numerous. The
Playlist allows you to recall a specic song from more than 10 songs by a simple, single step. Up to 2500 songs can be registered
in the Playlist, and you can call up the panel settings corresponding to each song by one tap.
Recording—Recording your performances—
Genos2 allows you to record your performance and save it as a MIDI le in SMF format. Genos2 also lets you record your
performances as audio data (WAV) to internal User drive. In addition, each way of recording also features two convenient
recording methods, Quick Recording and Multi Recording.
