From the manufacturer

From Tribute to Timeless
For the music enthusiast and solo performer, we present the new Genos2: a game changer in Arranger Workstations. Incorporating our legendary sounds along with the most cutting-edge technology, Genos2 is the pinnacle of our flagship line, giving you the highest quality Voice and Style content with unmatched real-time control. For those who want to be the ultimate cover band, or those who want unlimited possibilities in composing and arranging original music, Genos2 brings an entirely new musical dimension to playing.
All the Inspiration You'll Ever Need. And Then Some.
Genos2 gives you an unparalleled depth and breadth of sounds, inspired by the songs you love to play and perform. You'll have access to a library of Voices & Styles allowing you to customize your sound however you see fit. You can also explore an incredibly vast amount of music genres in the expansive library that offers endless avenues for your creativity. Plus, our instrument sampling and vertical integration gives superior consistency and quality. Whether you’re crafting original masterpieces, or covering crowd favorites, you’ll always create music in the most authentic way possible.
Reign Supreme Over Your Sound
The Genos2 isn’t just a powerful instrument; it’s a command station, making you the ultimate authority over all aspects of your music. Style Dynamics allows you control every nuance of accompaniment, from the softest whisper of a backing band to its roaring crescendo. The magic of Genos2’s Real Ambient Drums brings Styles to life like never before with the feel and atmosphere of live drums in a variety of environments. For example, you can shift from the raw intensity of a direct drum beat to a cavernous, echoing room in an instant. And AI chord mode intuitively guides your accompaniments based on what you play. You’ll sound like a full band is following your every note – even though it’s only you on stage.
Genos2. Where Stars Are Born.
Elevate your vocals and amplify your voice with our professional-grade microphone input with studio quality effects, engineered to refine and amplify your voice while making every note resonate with crystal clarity. And for those moments when it's not just about playing, but also belting out your favorite tunes, Karaoke Lyrics On-Screen ensures that you never miss a beat—or a lyric. Embrace your inner performer – and let Genos 2 be the best backing band you’ve ever fronted.
Everything you need for intuitive control
The knobs and sliders are a convenient way to control many aspects of your performance. Genos2’s updated Live Control surface now has LEDs to indicate, at a glance, the position of controls, which now also include a ‘catch’ function, reducing the risk of unintended operation during performance.
Big, bright, clear displays
At the center of Genos2’s operation is the large 9-inch touch screen which is now brighter, includes an anti-reflective coating and has been tilted an additional 5 degrees towards the player. Additionally, the sub-display now includes selectable light and dark modes. So whether you’re performing indoors, outdoors or under stage lighting, the Genos2 displays will be clearly visible.
Organize Sets with Playlists
Playlist is the best way to organize Registration Memory banks into convenient Playlists for instant recall during performance.
With the updated user interface, Playlist entries can be sorted A to Z, or Z to A, you can jump alphabetically through Playlist records as well as filter for a specific term in the records.
If you are importing MusicFinder records from an older instrument, the Style name will be automatically included in the new Playlist record name.
Vocal Harmony 2
You can easily apply various Vocal Harmony presets to your voice which can enhance your singing experience by adding several harmony parts and effects. Whether you want to sing as a standard duet, jazzy quartet or a big choir, the choice is yours.
In addition, you can be creative with the Synth Vocoder whereby you can manipulate synthesized sounds just by singing into the mic. The mic will pick up the characteristics from your voice, such as the formation of vowels, and feed that information to the Synth Vocoder shaping the synth voices.
Vocal Harmony gives the performer a wide range of vocal expression and possibilities which can be enjoyed at home or on stage.
Never Worry About Forgetting Words Again
Connect your Genos2 to an external display or tv using the new HDMI port.
Perfect if you’re entertaining a crowd or hosting a party, you can instantly show the lyrics of your MIDI and Audio songs for everyone to see and sing-along.
In addition, you can also mirror the main display or view a musical score, which can be useful if you're playing in a duo or band.
Let Loose with Chord Looper
The new panel buttons provide quick access to recording and playing back chord sequences in realtime.
Whether you wish to free up your left hand to play full piano, build up sections of a song or practice a difficult piece of music, the Chord Looper enables you to store up to 8 chord sequences in each bank for easy access during your performance.
You can create an unlimited number of banks with your own chord progressions, or choose from a range of built-in presets.
Premium Pack
Genos2 includes Expansion memory, which means new Voices and Styles can be added in the future. By simply registering your Genos2, you can download the DX7 Pack, which adds to the preset Voices, completing the collection of 128 original Voices from DX7.
In addition to exclusive expansion packs for Genos2, there’s already a growing library of free Voice & Style Expansion packs for you to choose from. The packs providing everything from new Voices, Styles, One Touch Settings to MultiPads, enabling you to personalise your Genos2’s content.
Go Wireless via Bluetooth
With your Bluetooth device connected wirelessly to Genos2, you can enjoy to play along with your favourite songs or even record everything you hear, using the onboard audio recorder.
Streamline Your Setup with USB Audio
The new USB Audio Interface allows for studio-quality audio to be recorded using the Rec’n’Share app or any DAW with just a single USB cable. Great for sharing your performance with your friends or for high quality music production.
Transform MIDI Files into Your Personalized Style
The magic begins by dragging and dropping your MIDI file into the application. In Easy mode, the conversion to a Style is automatic. Simply save the result and play the Style on your Arranger Workstation.
In Edit mode you can personalize how your Style is created. For example, choose which tracks from the MIDI file should be used in your Style. Specify which regions of the MIDI file are used to make each of the style sections, or even revoice and remix to craft your perfect Style.

- Reviewed in Canada on December 6, 2023Waited a year as I was expecting Yamaha to present their long-due upgrade to the 2017 Genos. Unfortunately, this is not much more than another software update. After 6 years of R&D one would expect Yamaha engineers to come up with more, much more. I think this was simply a marketing decision hoping to compete with Korg's much improved PAX5 top arranger lineup. I expect a "Genos 3" in less than 2 years. That one will hopefully be a real upgrade.

5.0 out of 5 stars A wonderful keyboard if you are part of the target demographic
Verified PurchaseThis is going to be a pretty long review, so if you do not want to read everything, take away this one point. The keyboard is wonderful if you are a fan of music from the last half of the 20th century. This Yamaha Genos2 keyboard is targeted a baby boomers who are financially able to afford the keyboard and who have some prior experience with keyboards.
The keyboard is far to complex for beginners. There are much simpler, much less expensive keyboards for those wanting to learn keyboards.
The keyboard is not for pianists who want a keyboard that plays like an acoustic piano. There are other keyboards that would be more suitable. This keyboard is more like that of an organ or synthesizer than a piano.
This keyboard is not for someone who wants a keyboard with a built-in amplifier and speakers. You will need to provide them separately. While Yamaha makes an add on 2.1 speaker set for the Genos2, many owners use studio monitors and a subwoofer. With high quality speakers, the sound quality of the Genos2 is superb. You do not want to compromise sound quality using a cheap set of computer speakers, although they can be used.
The keyboard is not for musicians who want to generate sounds never before heard. They should purchase a synthesizer, not an arranger keyboard.
If you love playing music, especially music from the 1950s- 1990s, this keyboard might be just what you are looking for. The Genos2 comes with with 1900 built-in voices which can be further expanded with free and paid expansion packs. These voices can be tweaked with a full array of effects. There are also hundreds of accompaniment styles which an be used for play along/sing along performances. The basic set of styles is heavily influenced by German styles of music such as Schlager. However, free expansion packs can add styles from countries around the world.
There are some nice features that compelled me to purchase the Genos 2 rather than less expensive instruments like the PSR SX900. The Genos 2 has WiFi connectivity, a beautiful touch screen which can be replicated on a larger monitor using HDMI output, adequate memory and the ability to connect up to three flashdrives.
If you are the right type of person to own a Genos2, it will bring a smile to your face every time you turn it on.

1.0 out of 5 stars UNTRUSTWORTHY AMAZON RESALE
Verified PurchaseTHE GENOS 2 KEYBOARD, SOLD BY AMAZON RESALE AS NEW, ARRIVED IN DAMAGED ORIGINAL PACKING INSIDE A FLIMSY DAMAGED OUTER BOX. NEITHER BOXES WERE SEALED PROPERLY. AFTER UNPACKING, THE GENOS WAS PLUGGED INTO THE POWER SOCKET BUT COULD NOT BE TURNED ON. IT WAS SOLD AS NEW BUT IT DID NOT WORK. OBVIOUSLY IT HAD NEVER BEEN CHECKED. YOU CANNOT TRUST AMAZON RESALE......! AS A DISABLED PERSON I HAD TO ASK LOTS OF HELP WITH REPACKING THIS HEAVY KEYBOARD. THE FIRST AMAZON CUSTOMER SERVICE REPRESENTATIVE WAS RUDE AND CUT THE CALL OFF WHEN DISCUSSING A RETURN.
IT DOES NOT SPEAK WELL OF THE PRODUCT IF YOU CANNOT POWER IT UP.... AS NEW!

4.0 out of 5 stars Playing is Excellent, installing Yamaha downloads needs improvement
Verified PurchaseI love the keyboard, just a few minor things could be better, but overall it can't be beat. The system to download from Yamaha website to a PC and then install additional sounds etc. on keyboard is difficult to deal with. Follow all the instructions, and yet many things fail. Waiting for software upgrade and meanwhile enjoying the keyboard immensely.
