 I haven't yet updated my keyboard to 1.4, but I see that the new Es*** 900 series has a bunch of features Genos doesn't have. Does the 1.4 upgrade provide these?

Chord looper
Style reset (for odd time signatures)
Joystick for trills


Btw,
It also includes Genos upgrades like
- better keybed
- RH 3 voice
- Genos GUI
- better sound output

- I also love that in addition to the touch screen there are still style and voice category buttons.
- Bluetooth! (Finally!)
- onboard monitors
- portable for flights!

Man, I think I want to upgrade my Genos to this... only issue is that it only has 1gb ram.

I would like to see these enhancements in a future Genos update. It will be interesting to see if, how or when Yamaha ports these features to Genos.

Total speculation -- v1.4 was a modest release to prove Yamaha's commitment to Genos as a platform while completing the initial SX models. I doubt if Yamaha has the software development resources to have multiple, parallel, full development teams. They need to schedule and assign their development resources carefully.

Time will tell -- pj

To answer your question, it's no.

And still we don't know if is possible making Custom voices/drums with mixing internal/external samples?

If is this possible than SX-900 better than Tyros5.....
