Question 1

Does it have internal speakers?

Accepted Answer

The Genos does not have internal speakers. A set of add-on speakers are available or you can drive the output through a mixer and speakers (PA system). Personally, I prefer to provide my own speakers. The "cheap" keyboards with internal speakers (that I've used in the past) were mostly disappointing (so I ran the keyboard output through a PA system). From what I understand (I haven't heard them for my self) the optional "speaker kit" that's designed to accompany the keyboard from Yamaha is quite acceptable. But I run multiple synths, so I prefer using a powered mixer and PA system speakers (mine have 10" woofers, etc.) much larger than the optional speakers. I also normally play in a fairly large room, where small speakers might not produce enough sound. You can consider your own situation to select the "best" situation for your needs.

Question 2

Can i get tyros 2 software, and transfer it to my genos?  if so, where would i get it?

Accepted Answer

I was able to upgrade my Tyros 4 voices and styles to the Genos. I don't know if Yamaha would support Tyros 2 in this manner. You'd need to visit the Yamaha website to see if you can find the information.

Question 3

Can expansion packs created by yamaha for psr sx900 be played on yamaha genos? i ask because some ethic packs aren't available for genos (just for sx)

Accepted Answer

I had the question but re: expansion packs created for Tyros 4. My answer from Yamaha seemed to be that similar or better items were available through their website. I found similar human voice files but not the exact same ones. Can't speak to PSR SX900.

Question 4

Can this yamaha genos keyboard be used in the us 110 volts and also europe 220 volts?

Accepted Answer

The owner's manual states: "Only use the voltage specified as correct for the instrument. The required voltage is printed on the name plate of the instrument." On the instrument I purchased, it states, "120V ~ 60Hz 27W" (the symbol after 120V indicates alternating voltage). This is the standard voltage used in North America. It apparently requires a step-down transformer to work with European 220V systems -- or a Genos manufactured to handle that voltage must be purchased.
