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. Songs—Playing back MIDI/audio files— For Genos2, the term “Song” refers to MIDI or audio data, such as preset songs, commercially available files, 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 Effects—Adding harmony vocals and synth vocoder effects 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 effects 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.

Chord section Split Point (F # 2 as default) Operation Guide 1 NOTE You can also call up the Style Selection display via the Home display (page 30). NOTE For more details on operating Style playback, refer to page 66. NOTE For basic operations of the Style Selection display, refer to “File Selection Display” (page 32). NOTE The Split Point can be changed as desired (page 49). 45 Genos2 Owner’s Manual Playing with Styles—Setups 1 Style Characteristics The particular type of Style is indicated the upper left of the Style name in the Style Selection display. The defining characteristics of these Styles and their performance advantages are described below. • Session: These Styles provide even greater realism and authentic backing by mixing in original chord types and changes, as well as special riffs with chord changes, with the Main sections. These have been programmed to add “spice” and a professional touch to your performances of certain songs and in certain genres. Keep in mind, however, that the Styles may not necessarily be appropriate—or even harmonically correct—for all songs and for all chord playing. In some cases for example, playing a simple major triad for a country song may result in a “jazzy” seventh chord, or playing an on-bass chord may result in inappropriate or unexpected accompaniment. • Free Play: These Styles are characterized by rubato performance. You can perform freely with remarkably expressive accompaniment, without being constrained by a strict tempo. For the Preset Style List, refer to the Data List on the website. A Style generally consists of eight parts (channels): rhythm, bass, etc. You can add variations and change the feeling of a Style by selectively turning channels on/off or by changing the Voices (page 92). In some particular Styles, some sections consist of only rhythm parts to showcase their musical characteristics. For details, refer to the Data List on the website. Style File Compatibility This instrument uses the SFF GE file format (page 10) and can play back existing SFF files; however, they will be saved in the SFF GE format when the file is saved (or loaded) in this instrument. Keep in mind that the saved file can only be played back on instruments that are compatible with the SFF GE format. 46 Genos2 Owner’s Manual Adjusting the tempo The TEMPO [−] and [+] buttons let you change the playback tempo of the Metronome, Style and MIDI Song.

Pressing both TEMPO [−] and [+] buttons calls up the default tempo of the last selected Style or Song. „ [TAP TEMPO] button When Style and Song are stopped, tapping the [TAP TEMPO] button (four times for a 4/4 time signature) starts playback of the rhythm part of the Style at the tempo you tapped. During playback of a MIDI Song, you can change the tempo by tapping the [TAP TEMPO] button twice at the desired tempo. During playback of a Style, you can rewind to the top of the section (“reset” the playback position, for stutter repeat effects) by tapping the [TAP TEMPO] button. This is called “Style Section Reset.” Changing the Chord Fingering type By changing the Chord Fingering type, you can automatically produce appropriate accompaniment even if you don’t press all of the notes which comprise a chord. Chord fingering type can be changed via the Split Point/Fingering window: [MENU] à [Split & Fingering]. The following types can be selected, for example. „ Single Finger This method lets you easily play chords in the accompaniment range of the keyboard using only one, two or three fingers. „ Fingered This lets you finger your own chords on the chord section of the keyboard, while the instrument supplies appropriately orchestrated rhythm, bass, and chord accompaniment in the selected Style. The Fingered type recognizes the various chord types which are listed on the Data List on the website (page 10), and can be looked up using the Chord Tutor function called up via [MENU] à [Chord Tutor]. „ AI Full Keyboard This lets you play just about anything, anywhere on the keyboard using both hands—like conventional playing of a piano—and still have appropriate accompaniment. You don’t have to worry about specific ways to play/indicate the chords. (Depending on the song arrangement, AI Full Keyboard may not always produce appropriate accompaniment.) For other types, refer to the Reference Manual on the website (page 10). NOTE In the case of a specific fingering type (Fingered, Fingered On Bass, AI Fingered), you can create a state in which no chord is input by entering a special chord named “Cancel.” This is called as “Chord Cancel.” For more information on entering chords including “Cancel,” refer to the “Chord Types Recognized in the Fingered Mode” in the Data List on the website. NOTE This button can also be set to change the tempo during Style playback, instead of Section Reset. The setting is made on the display called up via [MENU] à [Metronome] à [Tap Tempo].

NOTICE The settings will be lost if you select another Voice or turn the power to the instrument off without executing the Save operation. NOTE The term “footage” is a reference to the sound generation of traditional pipe organs, in which the sound is produced by pipes of different lengths (in feet). 54 Genos2 Owner’s Manual Using Ensemble Voices These are special settings of the keyboard parts that feature multiple Voices, used in realistic ensemble combinations, such as brass section and string quartet. Up to four special parts or instruments are provided within a single Voice. But rather than just being a combination, the parts are dynamically assigned to the notes, and are distributed among the intervals you play in exceptionally natural, musical ways—as if four different players were actually playing the parts live. Moreover, the discrepancy between each instrument—the pitch, timing, etc—can be controlled and “humanized,” making the overall sound amazingly authentic and expressive. In this mode, the Keyboard parts (L, R1, R2 and R3) are changed into special Ensemble Parts 1–4 respectively. Since all the Ensemble Parts are handled as Right parts, the Left hand part is not available in this mode, although the Auto Accompaniment can be turned on and Styles can be played with the left hand.

Also, you can save recorded chord sequences from the display called up via [MENU] à [Chord Looper]. • Up to eight chord sequences can be memorized. • You can save each chord sequence as a file individually for future recall. For details, refer to the Reference Manual on the website. Expressively Controlling Your Performance Using the LIVE CONTROL knobs/sliders You can adjust the volume balance between parts and sound details in real time. With default settings, for example, you can control the “Ambience Depth” parameter, which determines the Wet/Dry balance of rhythm parts of Style playback by operating the knob 1 of the Knob Assign Type 2. Also, you can control the “Style Dynamics” directly, which determines the Style playback volume depends on the playing strength, by operating the knob 3 of the Knob Assign Type 2. For details of the other parameters assigned to the knobs/sliders, refer to the Reference Manual on the website. NOTE • For information on switching the Assign Types and changing parameter assignments from the default settings, see page 62. • The “Ambience Depth” takes effect when the Ambient Drums/SFX Voices are used for the Rhythm1 and Rhythm2 parts of the Style. Which Voice is used for each part of the Style can be checked on the display called up via [MENU] à [Mixer] à [Style] (page 90). NOTE • The [ON/OFF] button lights in blue to indicate the chord sequence has been recorded and loop playback stops. • Pressing the [ON/OFF] button restarts loop playback of the chord sequence recorded on steps 1–3. 70 Genos2 Owner’s Manual Using the LIVE CONTROL joystick By default, by moving the joystick in a horizontal (X) or vertical (Y) direction, you can bend the notes up or down, or apply modulation effects. Move the joystick to control the sound while playing the keyboard. −X +X −Y +Y „ X: Pitch Bend Bends pitches up (by moving the joystick to the right) or down (by moving the joystick to the left) while playing the keyboard. This is applied to all keyboard parts (RIGHT 1–3 and LEFT). „ Y: Modulation The Modulation function applies a vibrato effect to notes played on the keyboard. By default, this is applied to the keyboard parts RIGHT 1–3. You can assign various parameters to control with the joystick. For details, refer to the Reference Manual on the website. Holding the values (JOYSTICK HOLD) The Joystick is self-centering when released. However, you can hold the current values by pressing the [JOYSTICK HOLD] button. • If the [JOYSTICK HOLD] button is turned on while the Joystick is moved, the last selected value stays in effect and is maintained even after the Joystick is released. • Turning the [JOYSTICK HOLD] button off releases the held value. By default, only the value of the Y-axis “Modulation” is held in this fashion, and the X-axis “Pitch Bend” is not affected. Which parameters are affected by the [JOYSTICK HOLD] button can be set on the display called up via [MENU] à [Live Control] à [Joystick]. For details, refer to the Reference Manual on the website. NOTE • The maximum pitch bend range for each keyboard parts can be changed on the display called up via [MENU] à [Live Control] à [Joystick] with the “Pitch Bend” setting details, by default. • The Pitch Bend effect may not be applied to the LEFT part during Style playback, depending on the Style setting. NOTE The Modulation effects may not be applied to the LEFT part during Style playback, depending on the Style setting. NOTE • To manually confirm the current values of the Joystick, press the ASSIGNABLE [1] button (the default assignment in “Live Control Joystick Assign”). • You can enable a pop-up window of the current values to automatically appear when you operate the Joystick by turning on “Joystick Pop-up” on the display called up via [MENU] à [Live Control] à [Joystick] à [Menu]. −X +X −Y +Y 71 Genos2 Owner’s Manual Playing with Styles—Operations While Performing 2 Applying sustain to the RIGHT 1–3 Voices The [SUSTAIN] button turns the Sustain function on and off. When on, all notes played on the keyboard with the right-hand parts (RIGHT 1, 2, 3) have a longer sustain. Playing and Controlling Super Articulation Voices The Super Articulation Voices (S.Art Voices and S.Art2 Voices) enable you to create subtle, very realistic expressive nuances, simply by how you play. The Voice type (S.Art, S.Art2) is indicated above the name of Super Articulation Voices, on the Voice Selection display. Moreover, with the [ART. 1]/[ART. 2]/[ART. 3] buttons in this instrument, you can add those expressive nuances by simply pressing a single button. Automatic articulation effects of Super Articulation Voices „ S.Art Voices The S.Art Voices provide many benefits with great playability and expressive real-time control. Example: Saxophone Voice If you play a C note and then an adjacent D in a very legato way, you will hear the note change seamlessly, as though a saxophone player played it in a single breath. Example: Concert Guitar Voice If you play a C note and then the E just above in a very legato but firm way, the pitch slides up from C to E. „ S.Art2 Voices Some of the wind instrument and strings Voices feature a special technology called AEM, which utilizes detailed samples of special expressive techniques used on those specific instruments—to bend or slide into notes, to “join” different notes together, or to add expressive nuances at the end of a note, etc. You can add these articulations by playing legato or non-legato, or jumping between notes in octave intervals or greater. Example: Clarinet Voice If you hold a C note and play the B b above, you’ll hear a glissando up to the B b . Some “note off” effects are also produced automatically when you hold a note for over a certain time. NOTE The applied articulation effect differs depending on the selected Voice. For details, refer to the Data List on the website. NOTE AEM (Articulation Element Modeling) is a technology that simulates the sound of acoustic instruments naturally by smoothly joining the most appropriate sound samples selected from the data base in real time during performance. NOTE Each S.Art2 Voice has its own default vibrato setting, so that when you select a S.Art2 Voice, the appropriate vibrato is applied. You can adjust the vibrato by moving up or down the Joystick. 72 Genos2 Owner’s Manual Adding articulation effects by the [ART. 1]–[ART. 3] buttons When you select a Super Articulation Voice, the [ART. 1]/[ART. 2]/[ART. 3] buttons may light in blue. Pressing a lit button adds the effect (buttons not lit have no effect). Below are three examples of Super Articulation Effects by the buttons. „ Example 1 Pressing the available [ART] button triggers different playing effects and techniques, separate from your keyboard playing. For example, pressing the [ART] button for a S.Art saxophone Voice can produce breath noise or key noise, while doing the same for a S.Art guitar Voice can produce fret noise or body-tapping sound. You can effectively intersperse these into the notes as you play. While the articulation effect sounds, the button lights in red. „ Example 2 Playing the keyboard while holding down the available [ART] button changes the nature of the Voice. For example, in the case of the NylonGuitar SW Voice in A.GUITAR category, holding down the [ART. 1] button lets you play harmonics for the guitar Voice. Releasing the button returns the Voice to normal. The button lights in red while it is being held down. „ Example 3 When an S.Art2 Voice is selected, pressing the available [ART] button and playing/releasing a note enables you to add articulation effects, such as bend up/down, glissando up/down, brass fall, etc. When you press the available [ART] button, it will flash in red until the effect is finished playing. You can cancel by pressing the button again while it flashes. Immediately after you press/release the note and articulation effect sounds, the button lights in red. Blue Red Articulation Sound Articulation Sound Red Blue Blue Blue Red (flashing) Articulation Sound Key on Red (lit) Articulation Sound Key off Red (lit) Red (flashing) 73 Genos2 Owner’s Manual Playing with Styles—Operations While Performing 2 Example 3 effects can also be used as those the same manner as Example 2. Holding an [ART] button (the button flashes in red) and playing/releasing a note enables you to add the articulation effect several times in succession. When Super Articulation Voices are Selected for Multiple Parts When you select S.Art/S.Art2 Voices for two or more keyboard parts, using an [ART] button simultaneously affects all parts for which S.Art/S.Art2 Voices are selected. When an Example 3 effect is assigned to both the Right and Left parts and an [ART] button flashes in red (standby status), playing only one part (for example, the Right 1 part) adds an articulation effect to only that part. Since the other part (Left part) is kept in standby status, the button continues flashing. To cancel the standby status, you need to play the keyboard in the Left part range. (Pressing the flashing button does not cancel standby status in this case, because this can cancel the standby of the Left part, but turns the Right part to standby again.) NOTE Keeping with the realistic response of the original instruments, the effects applied vary depending on the keyboard range you are playing in. 74 Genos2 Owner’s Manual Controlling Multi Pad Playback Playing the Multi Pads 1 Press any of the MULTI PAD CONTROL [1]–[4] buttons to play a Multi Pad phrase. The corresponding phrase for the button starts playing back in its entirety at the currently set tempo.

If you want to stop a specific pad, simultaneously hold down the [STOP] button and press the pad(s) you wish to stop. About the lamp status of the MULTI PAD CONTROL [1]–[4] buttons • Blue: Indicates that the corresponding pad contains data (phrase). • Red: Indicates that the corresponding pad is playing back. • Red (flashing): Indicates that the corresponding pad is in standby (Synchro Start; refer to page 75). • Off: Indicates the corresponding pad contains no data and cannot be played. Using Chord Match When the [ACMP] or LEFT part is on, Multi Pad phrases automatically change the pitch to match the chord you play in the chord section. Play the chord in the chord section before/after pressing any of the Multi Pads. NOTE Some Multi Pads are not affected by Chord Match. Chord section NOTE • There are two types of Multi Pad data. Some types will play back once and stop when they reach to the end. Others will be played back repeatedly (loop). • Pressing the pad during its playback will stop playing and begin playing from the top again. NOTE • While the Style or MIDI Song is playing back, pressing the Multi Pad button starts playback at the top of the next measure. When the Style or MIDI Song is stopped, pressing the Multi Pad button starts playback immediately. • While the Style or MIDI Song is playing back, pressing the STYLE CONTROL [START/STOP] or SONG A/B [PLAY/STOP] button also stops playback of the Multi Pad(s). While both the Style and MIDI Song is playing back, pressing the SONG A/B [PLAY/STOP] button stops playback of the Song, Style and Multi Pad(s). This behavior can be changed with settings on the Song Setting and Style Setting displays. For details, refer to the Reference Manual on the website. 75 Genos2 Owner’s Manual Playing with Styles—Operations While Performing 2 Using the Multi Pad Synchro Start Function You can also start Multi Pad playback by playing the keyboard or by starting Style playback. 1 While holding the MULTI PAD CONTROL [SELECT] button, press the desired button or buttons from [1]–[4]. The corresponding buttons flash in red, indicating standby status. 2 Start playback of the Multi Pad. • When [ACMP] is off, press any note, or play back a Style. • When [ACMP] is on, play a chord in the chord section, or play back a Style.

NOTE To cancel the standby status of the selected Pad, carry out the same operation, or simply press the [STOP] button to cancel the status of all Pads. NOTE When two or more Multi Pads are in standby status, pressing any one of them starts simultaneous playback of all of them. 76 Genos2 Owner’s Manual Singing with Song Playback— Setting Up Operation Guide 3 This section explains how to set up for your singing performance with Songs, using Song selection and Vocal Harmony settings. As is the case in Chapter 1, the settings made in this section can be collectively stored in the Registration Memory as one song setting (page 96). Setting Up Song Playback Songs—MIDI Song and Audio Song For Genos2, “Song” refers to MIDI or audio data which include preset songs, commercially available music files, etc. Not only can you playback a song and listen to it, but you can also play the keyboard or sing along with Song playback. There are two kinds of Songs that can be recorded and played back on this instrument: MIDI Songs and Audio Songs. „ MIDI Song A MIDI Song is comprised of your keyboard performance information and is not a recording of the actual sound itself. The performance information refers to which keys are played, at what timing, and at what strength—just as in a musical score. Based on the recorded performance information, the tone generator (of Genos2, etc.) outputs the corresponding sound. Since MIDI Song data contains the information such as keyboard part and Voice, you can play more effectively by viewing the score, turning the particular part on or off, or changing Voices. „ Audio Song An Audio Song is a recording of the performed sound itself. This data is recorded in the same way as that used in recording cassette tapes, or with voice recorders, etc. Audio Songs can be played back on portable music players and many other devices, making it easy for you to let others hear what you have played. If you want to play back a Song in a USB flash drive, connect the USB flash drive containing Song data to the [USB TO DEVICE] terminal beforehand. Song File Compatibility You can play back the following types of Songs. • Preset Songs (MIDI Songs) • Your own recorded Songs (for instructions on recording, see page 94) • Commercially available Songs: MIDI files in SMF (Standard MIDI File) format, Audio files in WAV or MP3 format. WAV: 44.1 kHz sample rate, 16 bit resolution, stereo MP3: MPEG-1 Audio Layer-3: 44.1/48.0 kHz sample rate, 64–320 kbps bit rate or VBR, mono/stereo NOTE • For a general overview of MIDI and how you can effectively use it, refer to “MIDI Basics” on the website (page 10). • For information on compatible MIDI formats, refer to page 10. • The Time Stretch and Pitch Shift functions cannot be used when playing back an MP3 file of 48.0 kHz sample rate. NOTE Before using a USB flash drive, be sure to read “Connecting USB Devices” on page 115. 77 Genos2 Owner’s Manual Singing with Song Playback—Setting Up 3 Switching Song playback modes Genos2 features two modes of Song playback: Dual Player mode and Song List mode.

Vocoder The microphone sound is output via the notes you play on the keyboard or the Song playback notes. Vocoder-mono Basically the same as Vocoder; however, in this mode, only single-note melodies or lines can be played back (with last-note priority). Icons shown in the Vocal Harmony Type Selection display indicate the following usage cases. (Blue) Vocal Harmony Type of Chordal Mode (Brown) Vocal Harmony Type of Vocoder Mode (Green) Vocal Harmony Type having unusual effects, such as a robotic voice.

Vocal Harmony type name Mode (When the Mode is set to “Vocoder” or “Vocoder Mono”) NOTE Make sure to connect a microphone before using Vocal Harmony and Synth Vocoder. For instructions on connecting a microphone and making necessary settings, refer to page 110. 81 Genos2 Owner’s Manual Singing with Song Playback—Setting Up 3 5 Follow the steps below, depending on which Type (and mode) you selected. „ If you selected the Chordal Type: 5-1 Make sure that the [ACMP] button is turned on. 5-2 Play back a Style while playing chords, or play back a Song which contains chords. Vocal harmonies based on the chords are applied to your singing. „ If you selected the Vocoder or Vocoder-Mono Type: 5-1 As necessary, change the “Keyboard” setting to “Off,” “Upper,” or “Lower.” When “Upper” or “Lower” is selected, playing the right-hand or left-hand section of the keyboard will control the Vocoder effect. When “Off” is selected, playing the keyboard will not control the Vocoder effect. 5-2 Play melodies on the keyboard or play back a Song, and sing into the microphone. You’ll notice that you don’t actually have to sing pitched notes. The Vocoder effect takes the words you say and applies them to the pitch of the instrument sounds. Using Synth Vocoder These are special effects that graft the characteristics of your voice onto synthesizer and other sounds, for unusual machine‐like or robotic effects, as well as unique choir sounds, which you can control with your own singing and playing. 1 Execute steps 1–3 in “Using Vocal Harmony” on page 80. 2 From the Vocal Harmony Type Selection display, select the Synth Vocoder category from the sub categories. 3 Touch the desired Synth Vocoder Type to select it. 4 Try holding down a note on the keyboard and speak or sing into the microphone. Also, try changing notes as you say/sing different words, hitting a separate note for each word. NOTE For Vocoder Types, the effect is applied to a maximum of three notes of the chord you play; for Vocoder-Mono, the effect is only applied to single notes (last note applied). NOTE You can change the Keyboard setting (Off/Upper/Lower), determining which part of the keyboard (or Song) controls the effect. For details, refer to the Reference manual on the website. 82 Genos2 Owner’s Manual Singing with Song Playback— Operations While Performing Operation Guide 4 This section explains operations you can do during your singing performance with Songs: Song playback, displaying score and lyrics, adjusting the volume between two Songs, and switching microphone-related functions.

To see where the connectors are located on the instrument, refer to pages 18 – 21. CAUTION Before connecting the instrument to other electronic components, turn off the power of all components. Also, before turning any components on or off, make sure to set all volume levels to minimum (0). Otherwise, damage to the components, electrical shock, or even permanent hearing loss may occur. Connecting a Microphone ([MIC INPUT] jack) By connecting a microphone, you can sing along with your keyboard performance or with Song playback, as well as record your vocal performance to an Audio Song. Make sure you have a dynamic microphone or a condenser microphone. About Dynamic and Condenser Microphones • A dynamic microphone reduces vibration noise, making it good for live performances. Power is not required. • A condenser microphone is mainly used for vocals and other instruments in environments such as a recording studio, since it is more sensitive to delicate sounds. For this reason, you need to take greater care to minimize vibrations than with a dynamic microphone. The condenser microphone requires phantom power supply (+48V), which it receives from Genos2 by connecting with an XLR connector. Connecting a microphone to the instrument 1 Set the [MASTER VOLUME] knob and the [MIC GAIN] knob to the minimum position. 2 Set the [+48V] switch to off. 111 Genos2 Owner’s Manual Connections—Using Your Instrument with Other Devices 3 Connect a microphone to the [MIC INPUT] jack. For dynamic microphone connection, use the XLR connector or a standard 1/4" phone plug connector. For a condenser microphone, use the XLR connector. 4 When using a condenser microphone, turn the [+48V] switch on. 5 Return the [MASTER VOLUME] dial to the original level. Adjusting the input level of the microphone 1 If necessary, turn on the microphone. 2 Call up the Mic Setting display via [MENU] à [Mic Setting]. 3 Adjust the [MIC GAIN] knob while singing into the microphone. Adjust the [MIC GAIN] knob so that the input level meter on the display lights in green or yellow. Make sure that the meter does not light in orange or red, since this indicates that the input level is too high. 4 Adjust the volume balance between the microphone sound and the instrument sound on the Mixer display (page 90). The combo jack accepts either XLR or 1/4" phone plug connectors. Input level meter NOTE You can also check the input level on the SIGNAL lamp on the panel. Make sure that the lamp does not light in red. NOTICE • Do not connect or disconnect any cables while turning on the [+48V] switch. Doing so can damage the connected device and/or the instrument itself. • When using the devices not requiring phantom power such as a dynamic microphone, make sure to set the [+48V] switch to OFF. NOTE When the [+48V] switch is turned on and off, the input from the [MIC IN] jack will be muted for a few seconds. 112 Genos2 Owner’s Manual Disconnecting the microphone 1 Set the [MASTER VOLUME] knob and the [MIC GAIN] knob to the minimum position. 2 Set the [+48V] switch to off. 3 When using a condenser microphone, wait more than 10 seconds. 4 Disconnect the microphone from the [MIC INPUT] jack. Connecting the Optional Yamaha GNS-MS01 Speaker Use the [TO RIGHT SPEAKER], [TO LEFT SPEAKER] and [TO SUB WOOFER] jacks. Refer to page 124. Connecting Audio Devices (LINE OUT jacks, AUX IN) IMPORTANT Since Genos2 has no built-in speakers, you need to monitor its sound output via external audio equipment. Alternatively, you can use a pair of headphones (page 22). Using external audio devices for playback (LINE OUT jacks) The LINE OUT jacks are used to send Genos2 output to a keyboard amplifier, stereo sound system or mixing console.

This is normal. Electrical current is being applied to the instrument. The power is automatically turned off. This is normal and due to the Auto Power Off function. If necessary, set the parameter of the Auto Power Off function (page 24). Noise is heard from the instrument. Noise may be heard if a mobile phone is used near the instrument or if the phone is ringing. Turn off the mobile phone, or use it further away from the instrument. Noise is heard from the instrument’s speakers or headphones when using the instrument with an iPhone/ iPad app. When you use the instrument along with an iPhone/iPad app, we recommend that you set “Airplane Mode” to “ON” on your iPhone/iPad in order to avoid noise caused by communication. In the LCD, there are some specific points that are always lit or unlit. These are the result of defective pixels and occasionally occur in TFT-LCDs; they do not indicate a problem in operation. There is a slight difference in sound quality among different notes played on the keyboard. This is normal and is a result of the instrument’s sampling system. Some Voices have a looping sound. Some noise or vibrato is noticeable at higher pitches, depending upon the Voice. The overall volume is too low, or, no sound is heard. The master volume may be set too low. Set it to an appropriate level with the [MASTER VOLUME] dial. All keyboard parts are set to off. Use the PART ON/OFF [RIGHT 1]/[RIGHT 2]/ [RIGHT 3]/[LEFT] button to turn it on (page 48). The volume of individual parts may be set too low. Raise the volume in the Mixer display (page 90). Make sure the desired channel is set to on in the Mixer display (page 92). Headphones are connected, disabling the speaker output. Unplug the headphones. Connect the footswitch to the appropriate jack. Check whether the external speaker is connected and the volume control is adjusted properly (pages 112, 124). The sound is distorted or noisy. The volume may be turned up too high. Make sure all relevant volume settings are appropriate. This may be caused by certain effects or filter resonance settings. Check the effect or filter settings and change them accordingly in the Mixer display, referring to the Reference Manual on the website. Not all simultaneously played notes sound. You are probably exceeding the maximum polyphony of the instrument. When the maximum polyphony is exceeded, the least important notes (such as soft notes and notes currently decaying) will stop sounding first. The keyboard volume is lower than the Style/ Song playback volume. The volume of the keyboard parts may be set too low. Raise the volume in the Mixer display (page 90). The Main display does not appear even when turning the power on. This may occur if a USB flash drive has been installed to the instrument. Installation of some USB flash drive may result a long interval between turning the power on and appearance of the Home display. To avoid this, turn the power on after disconnecting the device. Some characters of the file/folder name are garbled. The language settings have been changed. Set the appropriate language for the file/ folder names (page 24). An existing file is not shown. The file extension (.MID, etc.) may have been changed or deleted. Manually rename the file, adding the appropriate extension, on a computer. Data files with names of more than 50 characters cannot be handled by the instrument. Rename the file, reducing the number of characters to 50 or less. 130 Genos2 Owner’s Manual Style The Style does not start even when the [START/STOP] button is pressed. The Rhythm channel of the selected Style may not contain any data. Turn the [ACMP] button on and play the left-hand section on the keyboard to sound the accompaniment part of the Style. Only the rhythm channel plays. Make sure the Auto Accompaniment function is turned on; press the [ACMP] button. Make sure to play keys in the chord range of the keyboard. Styles in a USB flash drive cannot be selected. If the size of the Style data is large (about 120 KB or greater), the Style cannot be selected because the data is too large to be read by the instrument. Style playback seems to “skip” when the keyboard is played. You are probably exceeding the maximum polyphony of the instrument. The instrument can play up to 256 notes at the same time—including RIGHT 1/ RIGHT 2/RIGHT 3/LEFT Voices, Style, Song, and Multi Pad notes. When the maximum polyphony is exceeded, the least important notes (such as soft notes and notes currently decaying) will stop sounding first. Style does not change even when a different chord is played, or the chord is not recognized. Make sure to play notes on the left-hand section of the keyboard. Voice The Voice selected from the Voice Selection display does not sound. Check whether the selected part is turned on or not (page 48). A strange “flanging” or “doubling” sound occurs. The sound is slightly different each time the keys are played. The RIGHT 1 and RIGHT 2 parts are set to “ON,” and both parts are set to play the same Voice. Turn off the RIGHT 2 part or change the Voice of one of the parts. The sound is slightly different each time the keys are played. If you are routing the MIDI OUT on the Genos2 to a sequencer and back to the MIDI IN, you may need to set Local Control setting to “off” in the System page of the MIDI display (refer to the Reference Manual on the website). Some Voices will jump an octave in pitch when played in the upper or lower registers. This is normal. Some voices have a pitch limit which, when reached, causes this type of pitch shift. Song MIDI Songs cannot be selected. If the size of the Song data is large (about 3 MB or greater), the Song cannot be selected because the data is too large to be read by the instrument. In the Dual Player mode, two MIDI Songs cannot be selected for SONG A and SONG B. Select Audio Song for either side. MIDI Songs cannot be played back during MIDI recording operation. Stop MIDI Recording when you want to play back a MIDI Song. Audio Songs cannot be selected. The file format may not be compatible with the instrument. Compatible formats are: MP3 and WAV. DRM protected files cannot be played back. The sound of a song is too low, or a song cannot be heard. Check the position of the Cross Fader. If the Cross Fader is set to the right position, you cannot hear the song of SONG A side. If this is the case, adjust the Cross Fader to the center position. Song playback does not start. The Song has been stopped at the end of the Song data. Return to the beginning of the Song by pressing the SONG [PREV] button. The Song playback volume differs depending on the selected song. The volume of MIDI Songs and Audio Songs are set independently. Adjust the volume in the Mixer display (page 90) after selecting a Voice. (MIDI) The measure number is different from that of the score in the Song Position display, shown by pressing and holding the [PREV]/[NEXT] buttons. This happens when playing back music data for which a specific, fixed tempo is set. (MIDI) When playing back a Song, some channels do not play. Playback of these channels may be set to off. Turn playback on for those channels that are set to off (page 92). (MIDI) The tempo, beat, measure and music notation are not displayed correctly. Some Song data for the instrument has been recorded with special “free tempo” settings. For such Song data, the tempo, beat, measure and music notation will not be displayed correctly. (Audio) Recorded file is played back at a different volume compared to when it was recorded. The audio playback volume has been changed. Setting the volume value to 90 plays back the file at the same volume as when it was recorded (page 90). 131 Genos2 Owner’s Manual Appendix In the Audio Recording function, an error message appears and audio cannot be recorded to the internal User drive. The data on the User drive is fragmented and cannot be used as is. Since there is no defragmentation function in the Audio Recording, the drive can only be defragmented by formatting it. To do this, first back up the data by using the data backup function (page 109), then format the drive, and finally restore the backup data. Performing this backup/restore operation effectively defragments the drive, allowing you to use it again. Playlist The Registration Memory Bank file in the USB flash drive cannot be loaded when selecting a Playlist Record, even if the Bank file exists. This is due to file path mismatch between the current one and the one at the time the Record was created. This happens when turning the instrument on/off with multiple USB flash drives still connected. To solve this, turn on the instrument with no USB flash drives connected, and then connect the USB flash drives in the order you want them to be recognized (in the same order as when you created the Record) after the home display appears. Mixer The sound seems strange or different than expected when changing a rhythm Voice (drum kit, etc.) of the Style or Song from the Mixer. When changing the rhythm/percussion Voices (drum kits, etc.) of the Style and Song from the VOICE parameter, the detailed settings related to the drum voice are reset, and in some cases you may be unable to restore the original sound. You can restore the original sound by selecting the same Song or Style again. Microphone/Vocal Harmony The microphone input signal cannot be recorded. The microphone input signal cannot be recorded by MIDI recording. Record by using Audio recording (page 95). Harmony can be heard in addition to the microphone sound. Vocal Harmony is set to on. Turn Vocal Harmony off (page 89). The Vocal Harmony effect sounds distorted or out-of-tune. Your vocal microphone may be picking up extraneous sounds, such as the Style sound from the instrument. In particular, bass sounds can cause mistracking of the Vocal Harmony. To remedy this: • Sing as closely to the microphone as possible. • Use a directional microphone. • Turn down the Master volume, Style volume, or Song volume control (pages 23, 90). • Separate the microphone from the external speakers as far as possible. The Vocal Harmony effect is not applied even when it is turned on. In the Chordal mode, Vocal Harmony is added only when chords are detected. Try one of the following: • Turn on the [ACMP ON/OFF] button and play chords in the chord section during Style playback. • Turn on the Left part and play chords in the left hand section. • Play back a Song which contains chords. • Set the “Stop ACMP” parameter to something other than “Off” via [MENU] à [Style Setting] à [Setting]. For details, refer to the Reference Manual on the website. ASSIGNABLE FOOT PEDAL jacks The on/off setting of the footswitch connected to the ASSIGNABLE FOOT PEDAL jack is reversed. Turn the instrument’s power off, then turn it on again making sure not to press the footswitch. AUX IN jacks Sound input to the AUX IN jacks is interrupted. The output volume of the external device connected to this instrument is too low. Increase the output volume of the external device. The volume level reproduced via this instrument can be adjusted by using the [MASTER VOLUME] dial. 132 Genos2 Owner’s Manual Specifications Product Name Digital Keyboard Size/Weight Dimensions (W × D × H) 1,234 mm × 456 mm × 151 mm (48-9/16" × 17-15/16" × 5-15/16") Weight 14.2 kg (31 lb, 5 oz) Control Interface Keyboard Number of keys 76 Type Organ (FSX), Initial Touch/Aftertouch Touch Response Normal, Easy1, Easy2, Soft1, Soft2, Hard1, Hard2 Other Controllers Joystick Yes (Assignable) Knobs 6 (Assignable, with LED gauge) Sliders 9 (Assignable, with LED gauge), Cross Fader Assignable buttons 9 (A–F, 1–3) Articulation buttons ART. 1, ART. 2, ART. 3 Main Display Type TFT Color Wide VGA LCD Size 800 × 480 dots 9 inch Touch Screen Yes Language English, German, French, Spanish, Italian Sub Display Type VA LCD (LIVE CONTROL View) Size 512 × 48 dots Language English Panel Language English Voices Tone Generator AWM Stereo Sampling, AEM technology, FM Polyphony (max.) 384 (128 for Preset AWM Voices + 128 for Expansion AWM Voices + 128 for FM Voices) Preset Number of Voices 1,991 Voices + 75 Drum/SFX Kits Featured Voices 106 S.Articulation2, 437 S.Articulation, 141 FM, 123 MegaVoice, 25 OrganFlutes, 11 Ambient Drums/SFX, 11 Revo Drums/SFX Ensemble Voices 95 Compatibility XG, GM, GM2 (for Song playback) Keyboard Parts Right 1, Right 2, Right 3, Left Effects Types Reverb 85 Preset + 30 User Chorus 107 Preset + 30 User DSP Variation: 363 Preset (with VCM) + 30 User Insertion 1–28: 363 Preset (with VCM) + 30 User Master Compressor 5 Preset + 30 User Master EQ 9 Preset + 30 User Part EQ 28 Parts Vocal Harmony 54 Preset + 60 User (*) * The User number represents the total of Vocal Harmony and Synth Vocoder.
