Michael,

I have read this announcement. They say that they will show Genos 2.0. That does not mean that it is already released at that time.

No, you are right. Seems to be true.

I believe the official announcement indicated it would be released in the winter. Winter in North America starts on the evening of December 21st. I wouldn't expect it any earlier than that based on when they actually released 1.4.

[Fred Smith]

My bet is that 2.0 will be released in November. That's winter for a lot of us in the northern hemisphere.

We'll see if I can go 2 for 2.

Till now, on the official european website, there were on the download page, versions 1.30, 1.40 and 1.41. All those three versions were available. But now, if you go to website, only 1.41 version is available, which means something is happening. Something is being prepared.

Vali

Wow... Quick installation via YEM, using USB stick. So if you want to make incremental updates to your keyboard's expansion packs, you can with the new 2.6 version to export only the content you want and the keyboard will no more formatting the keyboard when you will install the quick pack... Very Nice.

New Content - GENOS V2.0 SUPERIOR PACK (50 Styles/68 Voices)
The GENOS V2.0 SUPERIOR PACK adds 50 all-new Styles covering vintage pop and dance sounds, as well as SA2 Premium Voices such as "Pan Flutes," "Female Vocals," and "Trombone." What's more, cutting-edge synth voices like "Monolan Bass," newly introduced with the PSR-SX900, are also included so that you can more easily recreate music from any era, from classic pop to the latest hits.

Yes i love it

Lucky i have not bought this because i really wanted.
It's coming 15 November 2019 for all.

This is a confirmation that the Yamaha team is following the PSR forum closely and that they respect our suggestions. In the video description, Yamaha says this ...

We would like to thank the Genos community for their continued support and invite all keyboard enthusiasts to explore new dimension of music with Genos Version 2.0

[Snicker740]

Correspond to YEM difference installation

Can someone explain me to this feature?
Thanks!

I think @Velimates is right and that applies to those improvements.

Presumably YEM will need to be updated to cater for the memory upgrade and in the quoted quicker importing/ exporting of content (reducing the requirement for reformatting).
So the new OS must include changes to work with the new YEM hence the not very informative English but "Correspond to YEM difference installation"?
Also user effect max no. extended suggests more memory slots than 10 currently reserved for user DSP's which should help when needing to chain more than 1 DSP with parameter changes.

Maybe the new ppi file exported by the new YEM 2.6 will contain the info, if file is a quick installation or a full installation. Or maybe they will create a new extension, like qpi, or something like that, which the new Genos OS will knew it is only an update to existing expansion and the content will be added. I suppose
